I hope Malibu leaks one day but I doubt it will, since she said she deleted it. Lana was friends with Amy winehouse and Whitney Houston lol? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amy and Whitney were superstars, so I don't understand why she would censor their names. She also said that the censored lyrics were too personal for her. how would two artists whose deaths were mainstream and well-known be personal? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She also said that the censored lyrics were too personal for her. how would two artists whose deaths were mainstream and well-known be personal? It could be personal in the sense that she is also afflicted with media scrutiny. Fame is only truly understood by those who have it, so she can feel super close to them. She also once said she believed she had a special, personal connection with people long gone before her through their art. I'll update this post if I find the interview. Found it: “I knew then, really, that my closest friends would be people I have never really met before,” she said. “I was different and I didn’t know many people who felt about mortality how I did. As a result, I do feel a personal connection with the icons: John Wayne, Elvis. I loved how nice Marilyn was, I related to her. Finding girls who were as loving and warm as her is hard.” https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/elvis-presley-lana-del-rey-feels-friends-dead-celebrities.html/ 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, I didn't know that it was the iTunes Festival performance. I wonder if they have other unseen live recordings of her. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
