Idk how to help but I wanted to chime in and say I love the title
poetics & politics just sounds genius

Hi everyone, If you guys ever have an idea, I might need some help in my thesis, I'll take everything (lyrics, life moments, interview moments, visuals, honestly anything you can think of) !!! 
 
 
In my thesis, "Commentary on fame: Poetics and politics of womanhood through Lana Del Rey's life and art," I aim to explore the complex relationship between fame, gender, and artistic expression by analyzing the music and public persona of Lana del Rey. To do so, I will draw on theoretical frameworks from feminist theory, cultural studies, and musicology.
 
One of the key concepts in my analysis is power, and I will draw on feminist theories of power to explore the ways in which female artists like Lana del Rey navigate the politics of representation and the construction of celebrity identities. Specifically, I will use Michel Foucault's notion of power as productive and diffuse to argue that power operates not only through top-down coercion, but also through the production of subjectivities and identities through discourse. I will also draw on the concept of intersectionality, developed by Kimberlé Crenshaw, to argue that gender intersects with other aspects of identity, such as race and class, to shape the experiences and opportunities of female artists in the music industry.
 
To support my analysis, I will use specific examples from Lana del Rey's music and public persona. For instance, I will analyze the themes of femininity, sexuality, and power in her music, drawing on specific songs like "Did You Know That There's A Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd" and "Born to Die." I will also examine her controversial statements about feminism and her relationship with the media, drawing on interviews and media coverage from specific dates and sources.
 
Furthermore, I will use concepts from cultural studies to explore the cultural and historical context of celebrity culture. Specifically, I will use Stuart Hall's concept of encoding/decoding to analyze how the media frames and represents female artists like Lana del Rey, and how audiences decode and interpret these representations. I will also draw on Richard Dyer's theory of the star system to analyze the ways in which celebrity culture constructs and commodifies celebrity identities.
 
Overall, my thesis seeks to offer a critical analysis of the complex and often fraught world of celebrity culture, and its intersections with gender and artistic expression. By drawing on specific examples from Lana del Rey's life and art, I hope to provide a nuanced and insightful perspective on the intricate interplay between fame, gender, and artistic expression.

Lana Del Rey filmed a video for Candy Necklace directed by Rich Lee.
He previously directed videos for her songs Love, Lust for Life, White Mustang, Fuck it I Love You/The Greatest, and Doin’ Time.
   

Well fuck me sideways and choke me with a candy necklace, who'd have thought? 

"all you need" unreleased song but it calms me down everytime i hear it. vocals are beautiful. for k part 1 is super peaceful as well.  venice bitch is good too, and yayo.

Arcadia, her vocals are just so heavenly.  Whenever I put it on both of my cats will come on my bed and doze off into a deep sleep. 

i could definitely fall asleep to something like kill kill or yayo, once upon a dream is very nice for that too, but I don’t play music to sleep. Rainforest sounds or nothing x

the fans who romanticize AKA and say it’s her “best era” even though that was a hard time for her mentally  
 
bonus points if they take “boarding school” seriously
