Israel-Palestine conflict (Israel-Hamas war)
Jukebox Sweetheart replied to Ultra Violet's topic in World News
I don’t think the average person needs to be aware of the boycotts or is a bad person from buying from Starbucks or McDonalds. I don’t even think Lana necessarily should know about the boycotts. Like I said before, the selfie is separate from my feelings, I felt this way before the selfie. Especially with Israel-Palestine, the media and the government is so incredibly biased that if one important celebrity spoke out, they could have an enormous impact. I do think that celebrities are very ignorant and if they spoke out, they would probably say the wrong thing. But I just think that in an era where pro-Israel propaganda is so deeply ingrained in American society, any attention would be good attention. I do think that when a genocide is happening, people with power should try to acknowledge it. I wanna end this by saying that I really admire you, you’re such a kind and articulate person on a website that can sometimes lack that. I appreciate having a back and forth. The fact that you’re educating yourself on Palestine now is very admirable and not something many would do. -

That’s not what I’m saying😭😭😭 Her buying McDonalds doesn’t matter, I just used it as a springboard to talk about a larger issue -

My point isn’t that she should be expected to know about the boycotts. I’m trying to say that she should use her many resources to educate herself about Israel-Palestine and make some positive change rather than remaining ignorant. I think the issue is a lot bigger than this one selfie, which I don’t actually care about. Schumer and Schnapp are separate issues, they’re not going to change or educate themselves. But I think if Lana, Taylor, Beyonce, etc. did they could cause some genuinely positive change. Obviously Lana isn’t necessarily as famous as Taylor or Beyonce, but she still has a huge platform. Personally, I think it’s the responsibility of celebrities to try to do good. That doesn’t necessarily mean researching every place that is being boycotted, but it does mean educating themselves and using their platform to speak out about what Palestine is experiencing. I’m not really mad at Lana, I still love her and her music. I just think that celebrities in general should use their platforms for good. This criticism I made of her doesn’t equate to hate, it’s just something I hope she can improve upon. But obviously, it’s a much wider issue than just Lana. -

To me, the issue isn’t Lana buying McDonald’s this one time, it’s her continued ignorance. She has the time, money, and any other resources to make a genuine positive impact yet she chooses to remain ignorant. She can’t keep saying that she has good intentions while making no effort to demonstrate this. -

Lasso - Pre-Release Thread: OUT September 2024
Jukebox Sweetheart replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
When has Lana actually cared about making money when it comes to her music? If she wants visuals she'll do visuals even if it's not necessarily the smartest promotional thing to do. Her label has given her virtually unlimited creative freedom. Even if the label's annoyed that the CN video barely made any money, Lana is more popular than ever and one failed MV is nothing in comparison to her current success. -
Lasso - Pre-Release Thread: OUT September 2024
Jukebox Sweetheart replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
No cause if this has I must be stupid for being so happy and hey blue baby I'll sob. I feel like this is a direction Lana's wanted to go in forever and as long as she goes the classic route it will really suit her! -
Grammy Awards 2024 - Lana Del Rey Nominated for 5 Awards
Jukebox Sweetheart replied to Elle's topic in Awards & Nominations
I know I'm late to this but I'm so so angry. Any song on Midnights does not hold a candle to Fingertips, Kintsugi, DYKTTATUOB, etc. Ocean Boulevard is a generation-defining album and I'm so sick of Lana being belittled by condescending critics who make no effort to understand her artistry. Album of the year is supposedly judged by artistic excellence yet Lana pushed the boundaries with every aspect of this album and is consistently ignored while Taylor made 1989 2.0 and was rewarded. If any other artist besides Miley won AOTY I would've been less upset, but there's absolutely no reason for Taylor to win besides the Grammy's knowing she would announce something and give them more views. Not only that, but Lana should've 100% won SOTY. A&W is one of if not her best song, and it sweeps every other song that was nominated. I know I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up but literally everyone has begun to recognize Lana as the visionary she is, even Fantano admitted he was wrong about her music, except the Grammys. Maybe next year Lasso will be nominated and she'll beat out Taylor's new album, but I think she should stop submitting. The Grammys need her, she doesn't need them. The fact that their critics still judge her by her SNL performance shows that they don't care about music. -

Fingertips does not get enough love, she should win a grammy for that song alone -

Lana at Revive Clinic in Beverly Hills, CA - September 6th, 2023
Jukebox Sweetheart replied to Elle's topic in Sightings
All this speculation about whether she's getting fillers or not is so weird, it's her choice and it doesn't affect anyone but her so it shouldn't matter to anyone else -
The recordings have just gotten exhausting at this point tbh, and Swifties have gotten more and more annoyingly parasocial.

I hope this album has a consistent sound and aesthetic, OB is good but it's not cohesive at all

I really want this album to be witchy like candy necklace but elevated
