Wait are they actually dating?? I stan that so hard. I thought they were just friends. 

Last night, Lana Del Rey attended Jack Donoghue's birthday party held at the Fraternal Order of Eagles social club in the Altadena neighbourhood in Los Angeles, California.
Fans have been speculating that the two may be dating, and they were seen holding hands at the party.

 

Well I now know why her hair and makeup are serving past-era vibes… they were done by her OG hair and makeup artists Pammy Cochran & Anna Cofone! She switched hair artists in 2018 to Sheridan Ward and her makeup artist to Etienne Ortega in 2020. The classics are back! x

NY really makes her glow 

Better quality of the alternate couch pic than what we had! (okay I’m fr going to nap now gn xx)
 

Literally stayed up all night trying to source a video of Lana on the bull SLFSKDJK now that it’s almost 1pm and I’ve finally found one I’m going to nap, gn 

Two more pictures with fans! x

Insiders shitting on Dealer and leaking it as “the worst song ever” really clowned themselves huh

Okay I know this post is following a super heavy post, but here's a little insight on who Kevin may be. One of her closest friend Jessica's boyfriend is named Kevin! However, they haven't been pictured together for quite awhile, so I'm thinking they may have broken up.. which may even explain more about the "Fuck you, Kevin" line  
Here's a picture of them all during Lana's birthday celebration in 2019! Kevin on the far left & Jess in the yellow - 

I just shared this in the Blue Banisters Post-Release Thread, but I wanted to post it here too because I'm completely destroyed after this song.

This is probably a bit personal for me to share, but I spoke about it a little bit ago last month when I shared a GoFundMe link for something regarding this.
 
At the beginning of this year in January, one of my best friends announced an unexpected pregnancy with her fiancé. Our friends & I were surprised, but told her we were there to support her through every step.
As a bridesmaid, I watched her walk beautifully down the aisle to marry her husband in June, knowing their baby would be shortly on the way. Was fighting back tears then too. (& didn't do a very good job at it based on the pictures.)
I then got to attend her baby shower in August, reveling in her excitement and nervousness. I even helped her set up the crib afterwards.  She was so scared, not feeling completely prepared, but she was so excited for her new child.
She gave birth to her lovely baby boy on August 28th after a 48-hour labour. She was so happy and we were all happy for her, and it was the beginning of a new hour.
I don't even know how to write this next part, again as I'm still crying here, but her son unfortunately passed away just 9 days later in her arms suddenly from SIDS. She had texted me in the middle of the night about it as her son was airlifted to the hospital.. not really having much hope from the doctors.. until he was eventually declared braindead.
It was like the world had completely shattered in front of all of our eyes.
Some friends flew in for the funeral, and seeing her once more walk down an isle.. this time completely heartbroken and empty inside.. I don't think anything has ever broken my heart more.
The first time I saw her since the funeral was two weeks ago when her, her sister, and I went up to the mountains for a little birthday celebration for me. She was laughing and having fun, showing a little of that old side of her joyous self that had been completely wiped away after the tragedy she faced. 
I love her so much, and this song makes me think of her.
 
We love every hair on your head
Love you like God loves you
& you say that you're scared
Might be unprepared for havin' the baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
 

I love you, M x

Don't have to write me a letter
'Cause I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear
 
We love every hair on your head
Love you like God loves you
& you say that you're scared
Might be unprepared for havin' the baby blues
 
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
 
You name your babe Lilac Heaven
After your iPhone 11
“Crypto forever,” scrеams your stupid boyfriend
Fuck you, Kevin
 
We lovе every freckle you have
We love you like God loves you
If you're ever stressed out
Just dance in the night
If you get those baby blues
 
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
 
Pink slippers all on the floor and woven nets over the door
It's as close as we'll get to the dream that they had
In the one-nine-sixties, and
Jason is out in the lawn
& he power-washes every time things go wrong
If you're stressed out, just know
You can dance to your song
'Cause we got you
 
If you get the blues
Baby blues
Just know this is your song
It'll live on and on
Way past me and you
If you get the blues
Baby blues
You've got us, we've got you
So there's nothing to lose, and we love you
 
So don't write me a letter
I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear

AHHH SHE JUST CALLED OUT MY INSTAGRAM HANDLE

"As a critic myself, of all things, this album was for the critics whereas every other album was for myself and even though that sounds kind of cringe, I think that that's okay because people talk about chronic over explainers, but the thing about it is it if you feel you wanna explain yourself over and over again, you have the right to do that until you feel like you've been seen. Because the way I see it is that the best gift someone can give you in your intimate circle is just to bear witness to your journey and to your life, and I think if your life is public and you're a sensitive writer, addict, of all myriads of things, you want to explain yourself. & There's something else I want to mention as a chronic over explainer to some women out there. if you feel that you haven't been understood right and you get angry, there's always a place for a woman to get angry because if you don’t, you just go right into grief. That's the way I see it anyways. & it's awkward to be furious, but there's space to be furious, and of course in my album I'm not so much angry as I am explaining - except in dealer where I am furious. But I just want to say it's okay to go out on a limb and look ridiculous just because you are angry. It's always worth it, even if you feel like you’re worng. You’re right because if it's right for you to say certain things then that's just the way it is and that resinates way beyond being a singer. People can be really tough on you where you just think, why am I doing it? But the truth is I got a lot of other things I love to do that I'm going to do. I don’t plan on letting anyone's opinions spoil that. I always felt like the least controversial person in turtlenecks and all that but yet everything seemed so complicated. But what I've learned, whether you’re a singer or you’re working in a flower shop or whatever it may be - we all have our own life path and we can all see our own patterns come up over and over again and only you know what your pattern is. My album has explained what my patterns have been, but I haven't so much gone into where I want to go because I'm not sure if I can get there yet. what I've learned is when you follow your own life's path, you heal up to 7 generations forward - and in mentioning that I wanted to say that to you all as my vast employer, you are my employer, I want to thank you because we've already given $300k to a Navajo nation and we do have $700k yet to spread around which I intend to supervise personally because I want to make sure ----" (it went quiet) x

It's (pretty) dark but just a game... that's what he would say to Gianmorenoo.. x

Update: The kid is joking about target giving him a sponsorship and is calling people dumb for believing him. 
 
Once again, what a little creep

The comments on @itsvenicebitch's post as mentioned by @That Venice Bitch -

whether you identify what lana did as doxxing or not, it’s still immature. i am on her side that she has every right to defend herself but lana posting the account and pictures of him is unnecessary 

she has every right to defend herself. period. she should not think twice about it from now on though. prolly some immature teen made up the rumor. 

We just talked for a little bit, mostly about my trip to California. She was honestly the nicest. We hugged. I was extremely nervous and stuttery 
Thank you guys for the kind comments. It’s funny bc I usually straighten my hair, but I didn’t this morning and when I left my hotel I had a bad feeling about not doing it and not putting on make up and when I saw her I was like omg of course this is happening today when I look terrible lol 

Yesterday, Lana Del Rey was spotted by a fan while out with her sister Chuck Grant in Los Angeles, California.

Dont forget the album its a NARRATIVE about where she was where she is now and where she is going. Past present and FUTURE. Its very cool to put highlights of her past to describe how she lifes used to be. 

Now listen to me... she is not lazy... every song that she chose to put on this album its somehow a important part of her life. Living Legend is the song she wrote for a friend. Color Blue is one of the last songs she wrote to Barrie (her biggest relationship so far) cherry blossom is one of the very first songs she ever wrote. Thunder is a fan favorite since the day it leaked. And dealer fits well with her past of drugs. She is smart.
 
 

Hi everyone.
First, I just wanted to apologise for being sort of spotty this week. I was out of town for three days this week while I was filming a TV show (& yes, I stayed at a Hilton Hotel), and today I was out for the majority of the day supporting my friend at the funeral for her newborn.
I finally had a moment to check in, and I saw this thread sort of took a weird, off-topic turn. I moved all the fighting that occurred in here into the Random Conversation Thread. In the future, please refrain from having off-topic arguments in the Pre-Release Thread. & as always, if something someone posts ever bothers you, feel free to send in a Report or contact me or another mod directly. 
Also, I moved the discussion about your favourite song from each album's track-listing into its own thread, not only because it was a bit off topic, but because I think it's a really cool topic of conversation that deserved its own place of discussion. You can find the new thread for that here.
Well, since it's been a very long and exhausting week, I'm going to go take a nap now lol. Please behave, all!
All my love xx

For those asking "how are we going to get updates now???!!"
The way we use to get updates 20 years ago before social media existed - by the artist's official website. Just go to Lana's official website and see if they added updates in there. https://www.lanadelrey.com/homepage/
No biggie.
Also, some of you are getting too hysterical over this. She's not dead nor is she retiring. She's just deactivating and living her life. Believe it or not, social media didn't always exists. Back in the 90's when I was a kid, we got updates straight from the radio, VH1 and MTV.
Lorde and Fiona Apple aren't on social media, and look how well they get their music out there. Nothing to be so worried about.
