It’s such a strange period to try and find little things about but it’s so vast and interesting . Lizzy is like Lana’s ( persona ) little sister but it’s literally herself … I don’t know if that makes any sense . 

The fact that THAT was the "tough competition" is such a joke
Some of you are really overthinking Taylor bringing Lana up on stage btw

I know it’s not Taylor’s fault and I know she had no bad intentions dragging Lana on stage.. but my god, she should read the room 
 
Lana as soon as she lost tried to hide her face, after congratulating Taylor she tried to return to her seat and when Taylor pulled her arm she initially tried to retreat. She also wouldn’t go up to the podium when on stage when Taylor asked everyone to join, and to me it looked like Jack attempted to convince her but she stayed resilient and stood still 
 
you can chime in that “if she really didn’t want to go on stage, she wouldn’t”.. that’s just not true is it, everyone is watching her and Taylor is happy and dragging her.. is she supposed to make a scene and tell Taylor no at that point? It would’ve ultimately made Lana look the bad guy, so she swallowed her pride and went up 

2 pac, Queen, Diana Ross, guns n roses, grateful dead. None of them ever won a Grammy. I think nominations are a better marker than *wins*. 

I just hope the announcement day is not at the end of august tho  and I'm also scared she's gonna change her mind as always 
 
Remember American Standards & Classics and COTCC to be released on September 5? 

on our way would work really well in a country rework just saying 

I love those songs and I feel like they fit well with the Henry, come on snippet so I really hope they're on Lasso! 

i must be stupid for being so happy is such a beautiful song, i hope it to be part of lasso

If Lana ever granted me 1 wish, this is what I would ask for

Do we really need a Recording Academy at all? I say they just disband the whole thing. Let Celine Dion and Jay Z pick the winners themselves.

Yes but she still knows
If anyone here is followed by her, please send her the link to that article!

I haven't done a cartwheel since I was nine. 
 
Such a simple but profound sentence. I am in my late 60's and this doesn't make me sad or melancholy. Just makes me think and reflect. One sentence. That is why she deserved to win.

oh they SPILLED 

I completely agree with this, most of us here know that lana is awkward and nervous on stage, id imagine if you were lanas FRIEND you would also know that. I think her heart was in the right place but her ego was there first, because this is what she would have wanted, not what lana would . even with the lana is hiding comment it's clear she's only thinking of herself, because clearly she can tell lana is uncomfortable if she can comment on it. i do truly believe taylor thought she was being nice but that doesn't mean it was the right way to do it
 

Yes but that's what polite people do not TS.
I agree with you , she shouldn't attend it anymore. I just saw today that Guns n Roses , one of Lana's favorite bands ( also mine ) never won a Grammy. I always assumed they did. Does it make them less legendary ? No.
Same applies to Lana.
Time is the best judge , let's see who will still be relevant on the next decade , hint Lana.

honestly almost more depressing than the snubs is what a showcase these events are for how much basic decorum we lack as a society these days... it's hard to believe these shows were once high class... people would dress in their best to go & behave accordingly. when someone won, they usually kept it brief but sincere. no phoney or overzealous behaviors- just to the point, professional & natural. Lol between sza running to the stage like a drunk mess with her phone out, miley telling everyone she has no underwear on & the entire first minute of taylor's AOTY acceptance.... just bye. Bring back the finishing schools

tiktok is full of lana vids from yesterday, even when she loses she wins  

Sis , i literally broke up with my bf last month and is not bothering me as much as this lol

She really has them GAGGED, it's so satisfying to witness
 A win in itself

I really hope Lana uses this moment as fuel to further her dreams and goals this year. As she said in Dallas in 2023, "Never forget to let passion be your true North Star." Regardless of what has happened I hope this is at the forefront of her mind and I'm so excited to hear her new passion project Lasso among anything else she has planned for this year.

Worst thing is that she's better than all of them put together.
Say Yes To Heaven alone is better than anything TS ever did , i won't even mention Bleachers ... to think she actually did collabs with them ...

You are fucking 100% spot on.
 
Lana doesn't "play the game". That's why a lot of us thought it was odd that she actively campaigned for Ocean Blvd (at the urging of others it seems?), inspired by the goodwill she'd been receiving, just to ultimately be slapped in the face by the powers that be.
 
Her punishment, right? Well, no, because she benefits both ways. She doesn't have to ever do SHIT for the Grammys again, and she'll still be incredibly successful, innovative, subversive, and self-maintained... all of that without being some cookie cutter industry shrill trying to impress the industry bigwigs. Isn't she the #2 most streamed female artist on Spotify currently? She's quite literally the 2nd most prolific and successful female artist out there right now. And she did it without being watered down, or playing it safe. 
 
If she wants to say "fuck it" and go even more gloves off now, well... We ride at dawn! She's a genius. And she'll be fine without a stupid trophy given to her by Boomers who never understood her (or tried to) anyway. Fuck 'em. She's a true rebel, and rebels are rarely rewarded easily by those who have played it safe their entire lives.

All of this… and it was really really well written btw. Honestly wish I could share to socials lol  because you lay it out! Fuck the industry and the people who don’t get her honestly. She’s a legend, a true legacy artist, one in a million. There’s nobody like her in our generation and there won’t be again.
