L’Officiel Paris‘s Spanish Themed Editorial Starring Lana Del Rey Is Actually Really Great

L'Officiel Paris's Spanish Themed Editorial Starring Lana Del Rey Is Actually Really Great

So I’ve already said enough about Lana Del Rey‘s shortcomings as an artist/empty signifier/hubristic first year Pratt student to last me for quite some time. But what about Lana Del Rey, model? As it turns out, she’s actually really good at that. She should do it more!

The latest issue of L’Officiel Paris features the cyberbullied singer/songwriter in a retro styled editorial that gives James Dean and Marilyn Monroe‘s ghosts a rest for once and draws on the iconography of an equally mythologized, if infinitely classier, country called Spain. From the red lips to the mid-length, wavy hair to the beautiful clothes, this is a feast for the eyes. Much credit should go to photographer Nicole Nodland, who got some really beautiful shots. But Ms. Del Rey is great and posing and conveying moods, too. And this goes without saying, but she looks lovely. If only she’d been born in an era before trip hop, she might have been a silent film star. More »

Here’s Lana Del Rey In A Darkly Lit Parking Garage For H&M

Here's Lana Del Rey In A Darkly Lit Parking Garage For H&M

Lana Del Rey does ad campaigns because she’s preoccupied with glitz and glamour and gold and decay and Hollywood and untimely death and money and illicit sex and needle drugs and flower headbands and American Apparel. Naturally, she hung out in a vaguely ’80s parking garage for H&M. Here’s her latest campaign for the Swedish big box retailer, which is pretty incongruent with her image otherwise. More »

She’s also being groped with one hand by male model Marlon Teixeira as he grips her throat with the other. Some of you are going to say, “STUPID HUMORLESS WOMEN HARPIES ALWAYS COMPLAINING” and you’re welcome to feel that way.

Lana Del Rey Now Shilling For Sports Cars

Lana Del Rey Now Shilling For Sports Cars

Whenever we post about Lana Del Rey, we get a comment thread full of angry teenagers, insisting that we’re probably an ugly hag for having anything negative to say about her (it’s true; total hag). Luckily, most things Lana Del Rey does undermine what modicum of credibility she ever had and we have to try less and less. Since the faux-indie musician has mythologized herself to within an inch of her life, she’s now aligning with Jaguar, we guess because she’s all about Hollywood and drugs and tragedy and rotten glamour and… sports cars? Seems appropriate. More »

Gallery: Lana Del Rey Does What She Does Best In Italian Vogue

In the August issue of Italian Vogue, there’s an editorial showcasing Lana Del Rey doing exactly what she does best: dressing up like a sexy ’60s sex kitten and saying she doesn’t care what any of us meanie-heads say about her. I’m not just being mean when I say she should stick to modeling; my personal opinions on fake lips aside (DON’T DO IT, GIRLS) this lady has never had a problem looking good in pictures. Unfortunately, the interview is in Italian so I can’t read it, but I’ll try to imagine some of the things she was thinking and feeling. More »
