    I don't think it's going to be about said celebrity fucking their way up to the top
     
    It's gonna be a sarcastic track about how that celebrity thinks Lana fucked her way up to the top.

    I think Lana loves so strongly that she probably refers to every boyfriend as the love of her life.

    Praying this doesn't get cancelled like the rest (letterman and her show at the roxy)

    Listened to it in the car for the first time today and I have to say, Lana was right when she said it was good driving music!

    Honestly this fanbase can be so embarrassing. I know we take pride in Lana sorta science (except more like science fiction) background, but this assumption that she's simply "too deep and complicated for every journalist she's ever encountered so how could they possibly get her" is just silly. She's not a hardline feminist, cool. You do you, and frankly I'm not going to stop listening to her for it, despite feeling very passionately about it myself.
     
    BUT THE TRUTH IS:
    She did this headline to herself. There was a more evenhanded way to approach it and she knows it. She was trying to sound tragic and inward, and I guess she did, but she also sounded super ignorant too. Of course you, as a rich white popstar in 2014, are unmoved by feminism. But something tells me if she actually had to live Marilyn's life, she'd want some more of it. All it says to me is that she's looking at it from an extremely selfish point of view. "I don't feel like I need feminsm because I feel free" is all good and well when you are apart of one of the most free demographics in the world. She says "let's talk about science" but how many girls (especially non-white and non-western girls) are shut out and pushed away from being interested in science? There are lots of feminists talking about that. That's intersectionality, Lizzy.
     
    And attempting to drag people for thinking she sounds dumb juts makes you sound x2 worse tbh. "I bet you didn't know about feminism before tumblr" isn't even a fucking insult. I've personally been a feminist for a long time, but god forbid people actually learn about something useful on the fucking internet.

    I feel like the seven year relationship doesn't necessarily mean he was a full time lover for all seven years. But rather that he was around and they kept in contact for seven years.

    Um, it'd be one thing if she said something like, "Feminism or lack thereof does not enter my consciousness when writing songs, nor should it have to. To be frank, I just don't have an interest in feminism. I also don't believe that art should have to adhere to ~socially correct~ conventions nor should it have to be ~progressive~. I write about my fucking personal experiences, and I'm not about to comprise my art to pacify those that don't respect how I chose to live my life with the person I loved during a time I felt happy and fulfilled." 
     
    But no, she didn't. It's one thing to state a lack of engaged/active interest, it's another to DISMISS a social and political movement that has undoubtedly bettered the lives of countless women around the world, including HER. Christ. Cringing hardcore at the "LOLOL FEMINISM IS SILLY AND TRIVIAL IN COMPARISON TO SPACE AND SCIENCE I AM SMART". It just kills me when Lana does her faux-intellectual schtick (politics, metaphysics, etc), because she always comes out looking like a complete idiot.

    I think UV's lyrics may be a little too jarring for national television and those who are not familiar with Lana's story. West Coast is a very alluring song, she performs it well in a live setting, and it would be the perfect choice to attract new fans while dismissing critics as well.

    Went to her concert on Thursday and damn she puts on a great show. I was actually there for the opening act, Angel Haze, but ended up staying for M.I.A. despite not knowing most of the songs just because she was so great and exciting.

  23. greymillenium liked a post in a topic by mermaid motel in Lana Del Rey spotted outside of 1OAK club, LA (2/6/14)   
    Story from when she was there about a week ago:
     
    So i went to 1oak last night with my friends and towards the end of the night i was on the stage with a friend dancing and i look over and i see lana del rey dancing at an empty table so i was like cmon lets go say hi and so we walked over and lana just started dancing with us and one of her friends who i guess turned out to be one of her managers was talking to me the whole time just about australia because thats where hes from and then he was like oh lana wants you to come back to the hotel with us were having a few people over at the chateau marmot in suite 29. So i was like okay yeah sure and then me and lana kept dancing for a bit and then the club lights turned on and it was time for everyone to leave so we went to the hotel and we just sat in the kitchen of her hotel room and played charades and talked. It was super casual and sweet. She has an M tattood on her hand so we were talking about that for a while and then my friend got tired so we all exchanged numbers and i left and went home. Didnt get a picture because i didnt want to be annoying lol
