Lana: “People were just so mean to me"
Lana Del Rey’s full British “GQ” Magazine Interview
Quote:
|
“No, just like the love of my life isn’t with me any more. The Hollywood community has been so good to me and they didn’t have to be, but not New York. As a person who becomes really attached to places for their energy and their beauty, for me New York was a match. To lose it, it really felt like my life was over. It’s a totally different life experience when you have to learn to love the things that don’t love you back. It’s the last great life experience. Not that many people have to live like this – live without their icons or their idols or their country. I know people won’t be listening to my music next year, but I still will have lost those places I cared about so dearly.”
|
Quote:
|
“It didn’t affect my writing, but it affected my happiness. I became depressed. Because I love New York so much. I was born there; it was my city. I was going to die there.”
|
Quote:
When she saw the hologram of Tupac Shakur performing at Coachella festival this year, she said to her manager,
“Right there is the future of my live tours.”
|
Quote:
|
“When I was young I felt really overwhelmed and confused by the desire not to end up in an office, doing something I didn’t believe in.”
|
Quote:

“People were just so mean to me,”
|
Quote:
Rapper Princess Superstar, who became friends with Del Rey in New York as she was going through this metamorphosis, helping the young singer find a new vision and a new voice, has this to say:
“I’ve never understood this controversy about whether [Del Rey] is real or fake. All artists have a persona. She’s not put together by some company. These are her songs, her melodies, her singing – she’s always had this Sixties aesthetic.”
|
Quote:
“lt’s been nine years since my last drink,”
“That’s really why I got sent to boarding school aged 14 — to get sober.”
|
Quote:
|
‘‘I was a big drinker at the time. I would drink every day. I would drink alone. I thought the whole concept was so f***ing cool. A great deal of what I wrote on Born To Die is about these wilderness years. A lot of the time when I write about the person that I love, I feel like I’m writing about New York. And when I write about the thing that I’ve lost I feel like I’m writing about alcohol because that was the first love of my life. Sure, there have been people, but it’s really alcohol.”
|
Quote:
Drugs too became part of her life:
“It was everything in the end.”
Heroin?
“No. But other things just to feel different.”
In the end, Del Ray ended up leaving school and being sent to rehab.
“I moved back to New York and worked at an outreach programme for drug and alcohol addicts in Brooklyn.”
|
Quote:
Such was the criticism, and Del Rey’s heartbreak, that, from the sounds of it, either this year or last year, she came close to pressing the self-destruct button once again: 
“Yes. It hasn’t been activated in some time. In the last two years I do feel more upset, which kind of triggers those feelings, making me feel as if not everything is in my control. The bigger things get, the bigger this whole thing gets, the easier it is for things like that to start happening again. When I feel like I’m being overwhelmed it’s hard to remain a guiding force. That’s one reason to keep things small, play small venues, that sort of thing, which is what I always wanted to do.”

I hope she is wrong for once
I hope she stays making music but first she needs to get out of there
It sounds like a pretty rough patch I hope she gets better

Well, depression is taking over her
And who cares if people will listen to her music, if she loves to record music to her fans, she should go on, she is epic.

She has some serious issues, and people shouldn't be making fun of it.
