Before her show at the Moda Center of October 3rd, Lana stopped by the KINK studios for a coffee chat with Cort Johnson - and mega fans Angela and Alicia.
She was powerlifting not for Banks, but because she probably had a cop boyfriend at the time, or otherwise someone physically buff. It's the way of women -- once they fall in love, or even enter a relationship with someone, they adapt to their boyfriend's habits and behaviours.
I love seeing Lana like this. As someone who’s been following her since the beginning, I can just tell she’s so comfortable in herself and her life right now. She’s doing what she wants and what she feels like doing. No rhyme or reason, just her following her intuition (she is a Cancer sun, after all). She’s so relaxed and poised in her recent interviews, whereas she used to appear a bit uneasy and anxious and like she had to maintain some sense of mystery. I’m so happy for her and her peace of mind has really been reflected in the new music.
Sammy Stone no she’s not. She confirmed on her Instagram and Twitter that she’s a Cancer sun and Leo moon (Scorpio rising). She’s a Gemini cusp, though.
Fucking love this girl. I used to be homeless a couple of years ago and I'd sleep in the shelter some nights and outside on others...just depending on the time and surroundings. I worked unreliable day labor but made enough money each week to train for a month at this MMA gym. I also had a Planet Fitness membership and in the mornings I'd walk several miles to go shower and tan there. Then I'd take the bus back up town, get off at Kenjo to buy a drink, and walk about two miles to the MMA gym. When that was over I'd go find a safe spot to sleep as the shelter had already locked up for the night. That was my routine for about three months before life suddenly became more stable. During that time though, I pretty much listened to her music every second that I was awake and had my phone charged. I would play the long version of "Ride" over and over and just visualize every word in great detail as it sounded so similar to the life I was living. Not really one to come to a random video and rant about my life story but her music really helped get me through such an awful time. Now when I hear pretty much any of her songs, I look back on those days with fondness for the how they helped me grow as a person.
Heartbreaking 🥺 I absolutely know what you mean - even though I wasn’t homeless, there was once a time when I simply didn’t see any point in living my live, like an absolute emotional breakdown (bc of my exes, mostly) or burnout, I don’t know... - even if I had everything in my life any man would probably be happy with during that time. Anyway, Lana’s sad, reflective stories she’s been telling us through her songs gave me a kick in the pants & made me move on with my life. I promised myself that if this beautiful soul (Lana) suffered so much and has made it, I still can make it and take a step further & and I won’t just give up. Just my thoughts. I do hope you’re in a better + safe place right now 🤗 Fingers crossed for you, stay safe! 🍀
Oh wow thank you guys so much! I don't even remember coming on here and posting this weird life story like some crybaby lol. I'm doing great now. I just put everything into this concept of saying yes to absolutely everything and always being the hardest working person in the room. People recognize effort and so far, everything seems to being paying off. My life is amazing now lol.
just a youtube commentator omg tysm for your kind words! wow, the way you just wrote that- amazing. you’re vocabulary must be big since you know such gorgeous, amazing, stunning words! stfu pls
her voice is so beautifully smooth, it never breaks. i usually find american accents annoying but i literally put her interviews and songs on at night to put me to sleep.
No other artist has ever made me feel the way Lana does when I listen to her music. It’s the greatest feeling ever. Hell I’d even say I’m actually in love with her. I would give anything just to have a chat with her over coffee.
When you listen to her old music before she became Lana her voice is higher. It’s a Lana thing I think. I remember reading somewhere a long time ago (idk how true) that she didn’t feel people took her seriously before she changed it up.
i'm legit starts to cry when lana mention father john misty, such a gentle yet appreciative shoutouts from her. he's easily one of the best folk singer/songwriter of our generation.
I like her more open nature and her kind of happy care free attitude but you can read it in her body language the way she sits and doesn’t move her hands as much when she speaks she’s still a little anxious and I enjoy noticing that even tho she’s more open and free she’s still a little shy bean who sits in the corner off the couch with her elegant voice and coffee
At 6:40 when Lana mentions Father John Misty, the female co-host gives the guy a strange look, and then he starts to laugh a little bit. Makes me think they might have a bad (or at least memorable) story about him.
I saw her that night. It was one of the most amazing night of my life she’s even more stunning in person. She sounded perfect as always. I’ve listened to her for years and got so close to her on the floor ❤️
I have fond memories of driving to our grandparents house in Minneapolis down the Minnehaha Parkway on Christmas Days in the 80s. God I wish we could reverse time
