At the end of the day… does it matter if she has a past? I’m not even the biggest fan of the girl but c’mon, did it ever seem like ‘Lana Del Rey’ as an idea was organic? Of course there has been some thought put into it, whether it was her or her label or both, does it really matter? There was probably as much thought put in as there was in the Strokes dressing like ’70s hipsters or the White Stripes’ mysterious back story or… I don’t want to break anyone’s heart here, but Lady Gaga’s real name is not Lady Gaga. Nothing comes fully formed and the fact that people are pissed that this girl who looks like she has stumbled out of a 1954 pin up girl calender didn’t actually stumble out of a 1954 pin-up girl calender is ridiculous.
No, her SNL performance was not good but only like, 5% of SNL performances are. Florence and the Machine was bad on that show. Coldplay, also not so hot. But as much as people want to discover something first they also want to prove that they’re over it first. HER ALBUM IS NOT EVEN OUT. EVERYONE CALM DOWN. …Says the boy typing in all caps.
