  1. at least this is … somewhat of a return to lizzy grant trailer park trash aesthetic?
  2. whatever lasso turns out to be, i'm just going to get used to the fact that this new man in her life is going to be part of its inspiration (just as barrie was for uv, francesco for honeymoon) and that's going to be difficult for me. part of the fun as a fan is imagining yourself in these scenarios and putting yourself in her shoes with these men who are almost like 'characters' in her life (obviously they're real human beings, but for the sake of fandom, that's how it feels parasocially). lasso's muse - and the rest of her music going forward, if they stay married - is a republican who is openly anti-LGBT and anti-vax.
  3. i'm sorry but yeah this shit is just weird. saw his tiktok likes. saw his trump stuff, his anti-trans stuff. saw the video of him speaking -- yuck. if it's true that he has family that's been arrested for DV that shit is weird. i don't know if his daughters are racist based off of a could-be-fake screenshot, but it wouldn't be surprising. how did she not vet this person? why did she get married after 3 months? why did she do this? yooooo i don't get it. been a fan for 12 years, still going to stream the music. but now i have to imagine THIS is the man she's singing about in her new songs. jesus christ.
  4. for some of us we’ve been a fan for 12 years lol I feel like it’s perfectly acceptable when she JUST got married for us to express our emotions… in the…. marriage topic
  5. I understand. my point is, I think you're thinking that sometime between 2019-2023, there was some sort of shift, and my argument is that I don't think there was ever a shift. since 2008 she's been singing about guns. I think she's been pretty consistent this whole time, and people (including me) were projecting their preferred ideas of who she should be onto her. she's your average american white women with some pretty heinous political takes. when all you know from someone is their music, it allows for a lot of interpretation. it takes the person marrying a seemingly far-right person for us to go, oh. yeah. she's not like that.
  6. the only progressive celebrity right now is chappell. azealia banks is correct when she says everyone else just virtue signals.
  7. here is the thing about american politics. americans are ignorant. we are all notoriously ignorant. that's becuase a) the system is built that way to keep us working and ignoring inequality and b) we have rightwing media (even our "liberal" media is rightwing) that has penetrated our collective zeitgeist, leading to pro-capitalist views, all sprinkled with some american exceptionalism. lana is explicitly a capitalist - she literally said the words "i am a capitalist" and it is clear by her music that she's a believer in american exceptionalism. her preferred aesthetics are old hollywood and southern americana, which doesn't come as a surprise, because both of these aesthetics have a preferred social hierarchy ... patriarchal and anti-black anti-poc. she's a country girl at heart, she grew up in lake placid. a pretty wealthy town, but a small midwestern vibe nontheless. yes, at one point she seemed super political, but i think that was probably out of character for her. i think deep down she is a center-left democrat, and that basically means she's rightwing. we are a very conservative nation. and the richer you get, the more conservative you get.
  8. if it ever comes out that lana knew he was in a relationship and still pursued him, that would really bother me. i don't like that shit.
  9. it's hard to say. i found an old voter registration in new york but that doesn't mean she's not registered in california now as a democrat
  10. i'm going to take this down if i get flamed for this but i sleuthed a couple years back and found that she's a registered independent in new york - not a democrat. girlie is not a progressive. she doesn't care.
  11. i heard that video of him speaking.... brotha eugh. i couldn't imagine listening to that voice for the rest of my life
  12. idk with all the bad boys and trailer park aesthetic lana sings about and has cultivated in her world-building i guess now that the initial shock of it has worn off, it just makes sense. "forget that lefty shit your mom drilled in your mind"
  13. i just don't think lana or her team care about what the media says. occasionally she'll respond to a bad review or weird stan accusations (trump, her wealth, etc.) but i really don't think she's going to adjust her album schedule as a reaction to this wedding backlash. i don't think she cares at all
  14. facebook and he removed it. probably got back to him from lana and crew that it was, uh, completely fucked up.
  15. imo this record is definitely on hold. i don't have experience being in weddings but i know that they consume so much time. and then you want to spend time w your spouse as newlyweds. i'm also interested to see how this life change will affect her music. will she split time between louisiana and LA? is she interested in pivoting away from festivals, touring, and settling down (for lack of a better term)? she is already an incredibly private person and i wouldn't be surprised if she has had a deep longing to step away from the hollywood scene ("i'm ready to leave LA and i want you to come"). and if she does, i wonder what that will look like. i know it can seem like a silly speculation, but what if she decides to stop recording under lana del rey? maybe that "project" is over. maybe not, though.
  16. Not going to get into this on Lanaboards because there’s plenty of discussion online around behind the term ACAB. Short answer is that I’m sure they can be nice when the uniform is off. Being a cop is working on behalf of the state, often weaponized against marginalized communities. My overall point was I would be way more disgusted w her marrying a cop rather than a guy from Louisiana. One holds tremendous power and the other is a pretty standard American Republican
  17. Yeahhh for me personally it’s ACAB 100%. And not only was Sean Larkin a cop, he was a cop prominently featured on Tulsa Live PD, a show that exploited POC, poor people, people with addictions, etc. it seems like Lana has a type; and that type is not progressive. At all.
  18. Insane. I know she’s most likely telling him to tune this all out, but this must be a lot for them both. Good lord
  19. Maybe she requested he take the post down because of all the backlash, so she’s aware of it, and him taking it down was the right move. Maybe he realizes it was stupid. Hard to say if that means she cares though. Also, I did remember the person she and Chuck adored - Goddess Bunny. She is a drag queen. I don’t believe she is considered trans. Edit: she is trans
