Yosemite 23,785 Posted May 10, 2023 Ma’am, she’s an actress! Loved the concept of it being BTS, her look w/ the blonde wig and the hood… then when she takes the blonde wig off and there’s another wig underneath… homegirl has been watching drag race. This eerie song deserved an eerie music video and that’s exactly what we got! 29 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lizzycobain 1,393 Posted May 10, 2023 Just now, sadness is a butterfly said: Well that was definitely a choice…. The visuals are stunning but I find the BTS very distracting. It keeps interrupting the flow of the song and video 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Missing Shade of Blue 2,360 Posted May 10, 2023 Ok someone provide me with a thought-provoking analysis about the deeper meaning of the video because I’m dumb 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LemonadeTea 533 Posted May 10, 2023 She looks soooo beautiful. I get the feeling that maybe she didn’t like how the MV recorded so they decided to go with a BTS feel instead?

brandon 13,283 Posted May 10, 2023 if anything, there should’ve just been a better balance between the bts & the pro-shot stuff it felt like a Very Uneven Ratio of the two, it was way more bts than anything else, should’ve been the other way around methinks 5 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

honeymoon is alive 21,019 Posted May 10, 2023 i loved the bts scenes mixed up with the official recordings, like already mentioned here it reminds me of a old hollywood video 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marius 12,802 Posted May 10, 2023 Well she explains in the video why she decided to record it in that way so the answer is right there I think it’s creative and looks great! 26 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol eh i don’t think so, i think this was always the concept iirc, when they were shooting it someone asked in the comments of honeymoon and she described it as a meta black dahlia or something 6 Quote last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weirdkowski 264 Posted May 10, 2023 I think it would’ve been more impactful if those behind the scenes episodes came later in the video like after the second chorus or something. Cuz now the story isn’t fully developed and bts shots took most of the time 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparklrtrailrheaven 9,036 Posted May 10, 2023 I wasn't sold at first, but... I'm sold Not only does this work so beautifully with the process-is-product aesthetic on Ocean Blvd, but is honestly such a definitive LDR statement. Like, the fact that there's already discussions about the BTS shots being inauthentic just speaks to how well she executed this concept of "blurring the lines between real and the fake" (to quote a certain BtD classic). You never know what's a persona and what's genuine LDR (whatever that is!). And the audacity of ending the video with her posing with her (as yet) nonexistent Hollywood star? It doesn't get any more classic Lana. In awe 21 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Grants 13,469 Posted May 10, 2023 the video itself is camp but the BTS shots are kinda distressing I almost had a headache lmao anyways this would’ve been more interesting if she did a CN / JB Interlude double mv instead of repeating the instrumental and vocals over and over 7 Quote and also for giving me Margaret Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
