I don't think so. We would already have the video if that was the case. And no one claimed that they asked. The rumor is that someone asked, but no one showed up to say that they really asked

If the rumour was about me asking, and I would've actually asked, I would totally not admit it. I'd possibly be ashamed af

But how would people know that you asked? Astral projection?

LOL I don't know, it's just it felt so out of the blue the thing that people asked about Lana in the M&G and then nothing. The only thing I thought is that whoever who *did* it just decided not to say "hey, it was me" after the rumour spread

lmaooo no i would never, i would be so proud

 

i mean not exactly proud but still it's kind of iconic to ask her to her face what happened between her and lana

 

although I would never expect her to give an answer cause she's extremely reserved so it would just ruin the atmosphere

Jealousy is there but no Scab & Plaster

I LOVE Scab & Plaster, my favourite unreleased from hers ever, but decided not to include it there because it is a personal song and doesn't touch the love theme as much as Jealousy does. Same with Miss Y that is just The Outsider 2.0. Hoping for them both to be included on her demos album or something. Besides, 20 tracks is probably too many already. I just wanted to start a discussion though.

I see now, makes sense

 

I also hope the final versions end up being released

Jealousy doesn’t fit at all in Electra Heart… it’s part of the unreleased album “Die Life“, with songs like Miss Y and Scab & Plaster.

You should replace it with Eternity or Just Desserts instead.

Girl, basically a half of the already released tracks on Electra Heart are a part of the Die Life.  And there's zero chance she's gonna release it so whatever.

I usually hate piano albums, but I would love a small EP with Marina. Add some strings and it would be angelic.

 

My only fear related to that would be the critics loving it and she gets stuck in the piano flop circle.

I don't know why it's so important to everone that their favourites get along. Who the hell cares. Marina obviously doesn't like Lana and vice versa (probably) and that's completely fine to me personally.

Spoiler

2011

In July 2011, Marina wrote on Twitter: "Could not handle Lana Del Rey's beauty tonight. She is 1 of the true beauty queens. Listen to her music. Love u, gf."^[1]. Lana wrote to her later: "Love You- Didn't wanna say Goodbye", to which Marina replied: "I never wanna say g'bye to the Princess of Oi"^[2]. More than a month later, in September 2011, Lana wrote to Marina: "How's My Girl?".

2012

On January 1, 2012, Lana also wrote to Marina: "Thinking of you today. Happy New Years".

In September 2012, Marina quoted Lana Del Rey's words from an interview to BBC Radio 1^[3], "I listen to a little [Marina's discography], She has a song called 'Teen Idle' that I really like", on Twitter^[4].

2015

In March 2015, Marina was asked thrice about Lana Del Rey.

In an interview to The Independent, Marina said: “At the starting everyone was comparing me to Lana [...] You will always be compared in that fashion when you are a girl. People zero in on the fashion, on stuff like ‘well, she’s a got a curl and Lana Del Rey has a curl... they must be the same thing’. I adore her, think she’s tremendously talented. However, I’m glad the comparison has gone away.”^[5]

In an interview to I am hype, when asked about the possibility of a collaboration with Britney Spears or Lana Del Rey, she said: "With Britney Spears? That would be weird. Lana, I love Lana," later answering the question if Lana loves her too: "I think so. One thing is to love an artist and another thing is working with it. So it wouldn’t probably work, for example between me and Britney. But you never know, I love her so I will always be interested to do so. [When it comes to Lana] I do not know, I mean I haven’t seen her for four years. It really depends on the song, if you stay with the person, there are many other factors you know... So we’ll see, you never know. Never say never."^[6]

In an interview to the Aquarian, an interviewer said to her: "Friends of mine always talk about you and Lana Del Rey being sort of the dream lineup," to which she replied: "You and half of the internet. That’s all that I see in my Twitter mentions. [...] I love her. I think we share a similar aesthetic in a way, my second album and her first one. I think we both obsessed over an icon, but yeah, I think she’s lovely."^[7]

2017

Lana thanked in the booklet of her album Lust for Life (2017), writing "Thank you Marina - for your friendship and your art". Marina did the same two years later.

In February 2017, Marina replied to a fan saying to her on Instagram that she should listen to Lana's song "Love", to which she replied "I have and I am. It's beautiful. Love her". Lana replied: "Angel".

In May 2017, Marina posted a video on Instagram with her and Lana, the first actual media that can be found online, in which they were seen together; Marina said to fans, being hugged by Lana: "I know you've been waiting for this for a long time, I have a surprise! We haven't seen each other for five years, and we know you're so supportive of our friendship, so we just wanted to send you some love." Lana posted later a picture of their friendship bracelets they bought at the Pygmy Hippo Shoppe in Los Angeles, captioned "I can't tell you how happy it made me to see this Angel. I don't even have the right words to explain how good it was to see her!" (Marina was seen wearing it when singing Disconnect live in June 2017). Among many videos/photos posted together, Lana captioned one "SISTERS".

In July 2017, Marina posted on Instagram a video from Lana's concert she attended.

The same month, Lana was asked on who she’d love to work with in an interview with Annie Mac. She said: “I love Rae Stremmurd, I love Swae (Lee), from that group. I really love Lil Yachty, just as people, you know, they make me smile and I just think they’re such amazing artists. I love Marina. I love Bat For Lashes, I love Natasha. Florence I really love.”^[8]

Lana also spoke to Zane Lowe on Beats 1 Radio, where she said about Marina: “we always say we’ll do something but I don’t know what she’s gonna do with her music.”^[9]

In October 2017, Lana was asked on her Instagram livestream about a collab with Marina, smiling and replying: "That's my girl".^[10]

In December 2017, Marina posted on Instagram a photo of Lana with her cat at her house from summer. She also uploaded another pic taken together.

2018

On February 26, 2018, Marina posted another pic with Lana captioned "Sis ?‍♀️", and Lana posted a pic with Marina dining together out captioned "Babe ?????". The same day, Del Rey hosted a livestream on Instagram showing her working on her sixth studio album, Norman Fucking Rockwell, with Jack Antonoff. Shortly afterwards, Diamandis posted a picture of herself, Del Rey and Antonoff together sparking rumours that a collaboration between the musicians was in the works,^[11]. However, Marina answered on her Instagram Q&A in November 2018 that a collab between the two is not in plans.

In March 2018, Marina was dining out with Lana as well as Florence Welch and FKA twigs^[12]. Marina also uploaded a pic wth Lana and FKA twigs^[13].

On July 7, 2018, Del Rey was spotted with Marina on a street in LA.

In July 2018, Marina interviewed Lana for L'Officiel USA, asking her: "To what extent do you think our personalities are shaped by the way we look?"^[14].

In September 2018, Marina spent more time with Lana and her family. Lana's father wrote: “We just adopted the beautiful Marina ... to celebrate the girls bought me a gansta Golden peanut necklace”. The same month, she added a selfie on Twitter captioned "Soy la princesa" (a lyric from Del Rey's song, Ultraviolence), to which Lana replied "Ugh ily".

In October 2018, Del Rey's father wished Marina happy birthday "from the whole fam".

In December 2018, Diamandis was again asked about her collab with Del Rey, saying "I would love to, 'cause I think she’s one of the best artists of our generation and I love her as a person, but I think it’s just a timing thing"^[15].

2019

Marina thanked Lana in the booklet of LOVE + FEAR (2019), writing "Thank you Lana - for your inspiring views on life. I appreciate our friendship so much."

In February 2019, Lana posted on Instagram a fragment of Marina's music video for her first single from her 4th album, "Handmade Heaven", captioned "Marina❤️".

In March 2019, Lana posted yet another picture with Marina on her Instagram^[16].

Same month, Marina shared a poem written by Lana, ‘Quiet Waiter-Blue Forever’, adding: “Lana = an incredible poet”.^[17]
