Nothing, I can't take much on here seriously and thus I don't really let it affect me that much. That includes Lana stans, I mean people cannot seriously be stanning for her after what, a couple of songs and two videos (if that?).

People were stanning hard for Gaga after poker face

She's released over 8 videos and there's still a couple of more floating around and she also has over 30 tracks floating around the internet. You should do more research, before you make those claims.

Lana fans are annoying, but they aren't and will never be the reason I haven't warmed up to her yet. I would like to hear a whole album of hers before I have a change of opinion about her.

You shouldn't be calling any of us annoying tbh.

I'm almost sorry to hear that.

ALMOST.

I mean although it'd be nice to find another Bowie stan on here (besides me, BadBitch and Moonage Daydream), it's nice having such a tight knit group of people; however I hope that I've at least encouraged others to indulge in some Bowie.

Suddenly if the whole of ATRL began to stan for him it wouldn't change my opinion on him even if there were those who disillusioned themselves here, there and everywhere. A 'stan' should not affect another's opinion on an artist.

Wasn't that after The Fame got released though?

I just don't understand how people can stan for someone who doesn't have a coherent collection of songs together on a record and hasn't graced the world with (at least) a couple of performances.

She actually has a scrapped/shelved album and here are some performances that she has had:










I can't find her Taratata performance, but she'll be on SNL next month.

That's all well and good but I fail to see why from so early on can someone stan for an artist. I'll give it a year until a lot of people have 'given up'.

[UnusualBoy]

No one. If the stans had something to do with the fact I like Gaga, Bey & Riri. I'd dislike them but now they're into my faves.

I'll give my opinion on that, after the album drops. It's going to be a long, bumpy ride for us Lana stans/fans.

You can't. I don't get how someone can say they stan for someone without an album. The word is thrown around too loosely.

Most people are ignoring the fact that she already had an album + all of the demos that are floating around. She even considers BTD her 2nd album.

[Remmy]

Nobody.


I understand stans can be extremely annoying, but why would people from a forum effect my perception on an artist or their music?

Oh, I had no idea Lana already had a debut album. But it was very much a general statement.

[=NEX=]

Beyonce used to be my top 10 most favourite star until i got to ATRL and met her stans. Now I just don't like her anymore.

And Lana Del Rey/Ray. She was just starting to grow on me and then some ATRLs starting to spam threads about her non-stop and it got really annoying. Now she is in "overrated" category for me.

If you're smart, ATRL will ruin nothing for you. You should have a clear and independent
mind, and a forum or its members shouldn't dictate whether you enjoy an artist or not.

Your most truest post to date.

Well for example, someone might be a huge fan of Beyoncé, and just a fan of Rihanna. They get on ATRL as part of the Beyhive and find themselves in so many stanwars with the Navy, dragging Rihanna up and down SYG in order to defend Beyoncé that the stop enjoying Rihanna and her music.

Or someone who enjoyed Katy Perry. They get on ATRL and start hearing about all the discounts and remixes and general shady business, stuff that they wouldn't have heard about if it weren't for ATRL. Given Katy's talent level and the fact that they never stanned for her in the first place, it's likely that the person will slowly stop enjoying her.

That happens all the time. I don't think it doesn't make you a *****.

If someone ruins the "passion" you have for an artist than you really didn't have much passion for them. It just shows how weak minded you are.

This is being weak-minded: I like Lady Gaga, someone says she is bad, and I go "yeah" and stop liking her. You can like someone but get tired of them because of what other people do. I used to like Harry Potter until I got so sick of it. It was a pretty good book series, the fans ruined it for me because I was bombarded with it.

Is this so hard to understand?

If I like wearing the color green once in a while, but now EVERYBODY is wearing it, the color becomes less attractive to me so I'm not going to wear it anymore. The color did nothing to me, and nobody forced me to wear it, but seeing it all over the place leads to much annoyance.
