Grammy Awards 2024 - Lana Del Rey Nominated for 5 Awards

[Thats why they call me Dita 10,281]

My husbands response to this is that Lana needs to drop Jack as a producer so Lana isn’t left in Taylor’s shadow  

 

im also a bit meh about Taylor announcing her new album and its title, Lana is a real poet, don’t come for that status too 

[Party Favor 10,326]

oh twitter is really going hard with her being a zionist once they caught wind of people being upset by her losing

I hope you’re wrong because we need her at the BRIT’s 

I would hope the BRITS wouldn’t snub her like this 

[jaesana 3,707]

This is totally just me, and I completely get if Lana is different (and more mature) than me, but I would feel my relationship with my friend was forever tainted after that.

But then again, Taylor always gives main character energy and her actions often come across as performative. I agreed with what she said about Lana though—she deserves her own flowers.

 

I completely agree with this, most of us here know that lana is awkward and nervous on stage, id imagine if you were lanas FRIEND you would also know that. I think her heart was in the right place but her ego was there first, because this is what she would have wanted, not what lana would . even with the lana is hiding comment it's clear she's only thinking of herself, because clearly she can tell lana is uncomfortable if she can comment on it. i do truly believe taylor thought she was being nice but that doesn't mean it was the right way to do it

honestly almost more depressing than the snubs is what a showcase these events are for how much basic decorum we lack as a society these days... it's hard to believe these shows were once high class... people would dress in their best to go & behave accordingly. when someone won, they usually kept it brief but sincere. no phoney or overzealous behaviors- just to the point, professional & natural. Lol between sza running to the stage like a drunk mess with her phone out, miley telling everyone she has no underwear on & the entire first minute of taylor's AOTY acceptance.... just bye. Bring back the finishing schools

[Trash Magic 28,472]

I see absolutely 0 problem with Taylor putting some shine on Lana and especially as the only collaborating artist on the winning album nothing about it felt weird

 

Only other thoughts are that Etienne Ortega needs his access to brown lip pencils rescinded immediately (or better yet be fired) and that boygenius are not a real band just a lesbian psyop

[gothphetamine 1,123]

Boygenius look like they’d be the roommates that accuse you of emotional abuse if you ask them to wash their mouldy dishes

[DCooper 37,181]

I'm still shocked tbh. I would've bet my life savings that she would have won at least 1 award last night 

 

This really is embarrassing for the Grammys and cements the fact that they are an out-of-touch popularity contest. They've hated her from day one, and they refuse to admit that they were wrong about her. They know that it's impossible to deny her artistic achievements, hence the multiple nominations, but they will not give her the satisfaction of a win. 

 

I'm so happy she doesn't play their game, she will always be too good for the industry.

tbf I’d argue that award shows have always been a bit of a spectacle. I do think the impact or meaning of winning an Oscar or a Grammy is not the same as it was or what I used to think it was. Not sure if it was always like this and I’m just old enough to realize, or if the standards of these award shows have changed. I used to think a Grammy was a serious award but it really is not considering some of its past winners and snubs..

Kinda off topic but help when I read the title "Life Is Beautiful", at first I was like "wtf when did LIB (Lana song) win something" and I saw the Oscar statue and realised "oohhh it's the movie Life Is Beautiful"

i mean personally i’m thinking way further back than the 90s. Try the 50s lol. these were definitely meaningful and classy events once upon a time 

 

[Trash Magic 28,472]

At the end of the Day Lana's continued success, influence and noted inspiration from current artists means more than any award decided via internal politics.

 

It's kinda more iconic at this point to be regarded as an artist who has been so unjustly shut out by such erroneous or conspiratory decisions because her impact and artistry cannot be denied than to be any old hack with 1 Grammy to their name.

That video she posted years back about being behind a brick wall and talent comes to mind.

I want Lana to post something on Instagram, not to talk about that freak show from yesterday but just to let us know lowkey that she's okay

Same… i’m lowkey worried (yes I have an insanely parasocial relationship yes im in therapy)

[taco truck 33,437]

I’m looking at the video of Taylor dragging Lana up there and she actually didn’t even look that upset about it  she said no at first but then basically immediately gives in and is smiling lol. She looks like she’s fighting more because she got stuck behind some chairs.

She’ll be fine. It’s not her first rodeo and she seems in a good mental state recently

God I'm already reeling from the Lana snubs and now I'm reminded again of one of the biggest and worst snubs in all of Oscar history. Judy Garland I'm so sorry
