Lana Del Rey Used Beyonce As An Example Of A Double Standard She Faces As A Glamorous Person
It seems to me that Lana Del Rey has been pretty successful in her career given the fact that I know who she is even though I’m not familiar with her music apart from having a pretty strong feeling it’s the kind of thing one might listen to while wistfully staring out a foggy kitchen window at the rain, wearing a flouncy housecoat and ignoring the screaming kettle that’s sitting on a vintage Wedgwood stove behind you. Her brand is that strong.
However, according to a recent Instagram post, Lana busted out the ye old-timey typewriter font on her notes app and wrote that she feels she’s been “crucified” every time she sings about “feeling beautiful” or “whatever I want,” whereas her rivals are rewarded with “number one songs” for singing about “wearing no clothes,” and name-checking Beyoncé (among others), in the process. Naturally, this statement went over like a lead balloon or Lana on .0005mg of melatonin (it does not take much).
Beyoncé Made A Surprise Appearance On “The Disney Family Sing-Along”
Beyoncé graciously graced the world with her presence during these trying times. Billboard says all the stars showed up for Disney’s The Disney Family Sing-Along, which aired on ABC last night. The show was done in partnership with Feeding America and was hosted by Ryan Seacrest and featured famous types yodeling out Disney songs. Gal Gadot is shook.
8-Year-Old Blue Ivy Carter Just Won An NAACP Image Award
If you needed a reminder that you are doing nothing with your life, cultural icon Blue Ivy Carter just won an NAACP Image award, adding another highlight to her resume (that also includes, in bold font, being the daughter of Jay Z and Beyonce). Well, it wasn’t an award for shadiest side-eye, or best example of public civility and manners, it was for SONGWRITING AND SINGING!
Adele And Adele’s Body Went To Oscar Parties
STOP THE PRESSES! Adele went to a fancy Oscars after-party hosted by Madonna’s manager Guy Oseary. And people had a lot to say about her skinnier body. Again.
Jay-Z Denies That He Was Making A Political Statement By Sitting During The National Anthem
Hear ye! Hear ye! Jay-Z needs to clear something up! At the Super Bowl on Sunday, Jay-Z and Beyoncé sat during Demi Lovato‘s performance of The National Anthem. Many rolled their eyes at Jay-Z’s empty gesture since he previously said that “we” were past kneeling. Well, listen up, Jay-Z and his family were in no way, shape or form protesting police brutality and making a statement about the atrocities black people face in America. They were NOT. Do not get it twisted. They were only thinking of the capitalist venture of which they were a part of. That’s it! Jay-Z spoke at Columbia University and let the world know that he only cares about the Super Bowl! Okay?!
Demi Lovato Yodeled Out The National Anthem At The Super Bowl As Beyonce And Jay-Z Stayed Sitting
When it was announced that Demi Lovato was going to continue her comeback by singing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, I nearly did my part as a lover of animal friends by passing around ear plugs to the dogs in the neighborhood since sometimes her scream-singing probably makes a dog feel like they’re getting raw fucked in the ear by an entire fireworks show. While some hoped that Demi would scream-sing so hard that she’d scream-sing off those thirty layers of roasted Oompa Loompa Bronzer on her, Demi kept the scream-singing mostly under control and did the National Anthem good. On a scale from Roseanne to Whitney, she was definitely much, much closer to Whitney. Although, if Demi’s vocal cords were possessed by a constipated demon with laryngitis and she sang the National Anthem while getting a bikini wax, she’d still sound a million times better than Roseanne.
And as Demi let out a stream of patriotic music notes, Beyonce and Jay-Z stayed sitting as though Joaquin Phoenix won another award in front of them.
