okay but, i’m pretty sure it.. actually wasn’t? rick nowels himself said that they wrote it during a session, the director heard it, and decided he wanted it for the movie - so it literally just, wasn’t written specifically for the movie and therefore not eligible 

I had heard something like this. That the song was originally intended for Paradise.

yeah i’m pretty sure it was during those sessions?  

but

“the Academy's rules stipulate that "an original song consists of words and music, both of which are original and written specifically for the motion picture.”

 

and we know y+b wasn’t commissioned specifically for the film, rick kinda admitted that in an insta caption, soOoOo??

It was originally intended for Paradise if I’m not wrong… I remember her talking about “In the Land of Gods and Monsters” and “Young & Beautiful” during an Apple Radio (or smth like that) interview shortly before Paradise came out.

I love the color in her eyes, adds to the Euphoria of it all 

 

she looks like she's high 

 

also about the y&b topic - just because it wasn't written for the film that doesn't mean it's not a good song

yas y+b the ultimate serve, tbh will forever be one of her best

 

but it literally just wasn’t eligible for the oscar so i just don’t understand ppl being mad abt it 😭 

[13beachess 7,309]

ugh it really annoys the HELL outta me that she had to put "girl" to the already perfect title  Cinnamon

 

[That Venice Bitch 23,505]

There was an anonymous letter sent out to Academy members saying that Y+B was ineligible. Nobody knew who it came from nor was there reasoning behind it. It was literally an inside job 

 

Once the nominations were announced, one of the nominations was revoked after some time because one old fuck cheated to get his movie’s song a nomination. it was some cheap ugly christian song from a movie nobody had ever heard of

How did this thread turn into a debate on Young & Beautiful's Oscar eligibility from 7/8 years ago

it was perfectly eligible, i don’t think the academy would’ve shortlisted the song in the first place if it wasn’t.

the academy probably was under the assumption it was commissioned for the movie tbh, and i’m sure her team just let it happen bc ya know, who doesn’t want an oscar. because according to the rules for the category + our knowledge on the song being written independently from the film - no it wasn’t

it's kinda stupid, since it couldn't get nominated she should've put it on born to die for the extra streams tho

Tbf Lana hadn't specifically wrote the song for the movie, it was already written. But it's kinda BS since it was not already released, she only found the right outlet for the song.
Whoever did that smear campaign was bitter asf.

this is uv raccoon eyes erasure 

[whitelungswhitepalms 9,661]

When she came out with that look FUCK and then to release ultra she really did that.

 

speaking of a look I hope there’s a video or at least a gorgeous art coverrrrrrrrr 

 

she better tease the song and promote it (in her own way)

 

edit: quoted the wrong person but this is about the raccoon eye makeup circa 2014

literally her best and most iconic makeup look

[Super Movie 50,262]

I think these are my favorite Lana eye makeup looks

  

 

And of course, this one, which is so iconic

 

Looking at all of these got me thinking about what colors the song might reference and how it'll play into Euphoria aesthetically

Lana wrote the anonymous letter to the Grammys cuz she knew not winning Grammys is more legendary than winning
