After a phenomenal headlining performance at Coachella 2024 two weeks ago, Lana Del Rey returned to the desert to join Paul Cauthen’s set during the first night of Stagecoach this year.
Together, Del Rey and Cauthen sang the classic track’s chorus: “Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea/To the open arms of the sea/Lonely rivers cry, wait for me, wait for me/ I’ll be coming home, wait for me.”

Billie Eilish wants to destigmatize how society treats women who are comfortable with talking about their sexuality. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the singer explained masturbation has helped her find “a love for my body that I have not really ever had.”
Speaking to the magazine’s senior music writer Angie Martoccio, Eilish said she talks about sex “any time I possibly can” to decompress, adding that it’s “literally my favorite topic.” She also commented about people being “weirded out” by women who are “very comfortable in their sexuality and communicative in it.”
“My experience as a woman has been that it’s seen in such a weird way,” said Eilish. “I think it’s such a frowned-upon thing to talk about, and I think that should change. You asked me what I do to decompress? That shit can really, really save you sometimes, just saying. Can’t recommend it more,...

Lana shocked the Coachella crowd Friday night by bringing out Camila Cabello for an energy-shifting performance of her hyper pop single “I Luv It.”
“This is my girl. I have so much fun with her. I love this song to death,” Del Rey said after coquettishly repeating the song’s chorus early in her set. “Thank you so much angel for coming to sing with me.”
”This is an honor me, you’re one of my favorite artists of all time. Thank you so much,” Cabello replied.

Billie Eilish is continuing to celebrate her full-circle performance with Lana Del Rey at Coachella last weekend.
In an Instagram Story post on Wednesday, Eilish wrote that singing 2012’s “Video Games” and her breakthrough hit “Ocean Eyes” felt like “literally a hallucination,” and credited Del Rey for being the reason behind her Don’t Smile At Me track.

Courtney Love has slammed Beyoncé, Lana del Ray, Taylor Swift and other prominent female singers for their role in the music industry.
“It’s great that there are so many successful women in the music industry, but lots of them are becoming a cliché,” Love told U.K.’s Evening Standard. “Now, every successful woman is cloned, so there is just too much music. They’re all the same. If you play something on Spotify, you get bombarded with a lot of stuff that’s exactly the same.”
“I mean, I like the idea of Beyoncé doing a country record because it’s about black women going into spaces where previously only white women have been allowed, not that I like it much, as a concept, I love it,” she said. “I just don’t like her music.”
Love was even more dismissive of Swift. “Taylor is not important… as an artist,...

Lana Del Rey expressed her deep gratitude for pretty much everyone who helped bring her headlining Coachella set to life — her band, her dancers, her management team, her production and stage crew, her special guests Billie Eilish, Jack Antonoff, Jon Batiste, and even her clairvoyant. Well, everyone, except her now ex-tour manager, who apparently quit just over a month before the performance.

Not only did Love say some very controversial things about Swift, one of the most influential people in the world. She also said interesting things about the Queen Bey and Del Rey, which might infuriate more than a few fanbases.

With a new BBC radio series now launched, Courtney Love is once again proving the power of the adage “go large or go home.”
In a wide ranging interview with the UK’s Standard today, the former Hole front woman puts forth her take on some of the biggest names in the music industry. Let’s just say, Love bites in deep in the newspaper, to quote from her 1998 tune “Celebrity Skin,” to get her pound of flesh from Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Madonna and recent Coachella headliner Lana Del Rey.
“Taylor is not important,” the People vs. Larry Flint star says of the superstar.
“She might be a safe space for girls, and she’s probably the Madonna of now, but she’s not interesting as an artist,” Love added.
The contrarian opinion on Swift is a big shift from where Love was on the Folklore singer just over two years ago.

Coachella 2024 kicked off Friday, and festival season is officially upon us once again.
With over 100,000 festival goers in the desert for this weekend’s debut, Day One was a stacked opening, with Lana Del Rey bringing out Billie Eilish for a duet, Shakira shocking the crowd and announcing a world tour during Bizarrap’s set, and Peso Pluma putting corridos on the world stage.
If Euphoria core influenced Coachella’s fashion in years past, 2024 has now gone cosmic cowboy as the silver boots and cowboy hats took over the festival grounds.

Lana Del Rey brought her ethereal Venus energy to the Coachella main stage as she closed out Friday night at the festival. This marked her first Coachella performance since 2014.
Seated on the back of a motorcycle, Del Rey rode serenely towards the stage with a full motorcade trailing behind her. Lines from her 2012 song “Jealous Girl” played from the speakers — “Baby, I’m a gangster too/And it takes two to tango” — before she took the stage in a sparkling baby blue dress.

Lana Del Rey and her gal pal, Taylor Swift, posed together on the red carpet at the 66th Grammy Awards at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday.
Del Rey went all black, from black hair with bangs to a black dress with black gloves.
Swift stunned in a white dress and a necklace, including a black choker. Long-sleeved gloves made the Grammy outfit complete.
Del Rey was featured on Swift’s “Snow on the Beach” from Swift’s album Midnights.
The “Anti-Hero” singer won her fourth Album of The Year for her 2022 Midnights album and announced that she would be releasing a new album, The Tortured Poets Department.

Lana Del Rey did not win an award at this year’s Grammy Awards, but her appearance at Sunday’s awards shows generated all sorts of headlines. This was partly because she now zero wins against 11 nominations, and partly because she was awkwardly dragged on stage after Taylor Swift won Album of the Year (a category in which Del Rey herself was also nominated).
In her first Instagram post since Sunday’s show, Del Rey shared a series of photos and video from the night, including a clip of Swift winning Album of the Year and another clip of the two posing for a glambot. There are also several behind-the-scenes photos of Del Rey with producer Jack Antonoff and others. But to close the carousel, Del Rey included a selfie in which she poses with a gun in her right hand.

Jack Antonoff swung by Late Night With Seth Meyers Thursday to perform a new Bleachers song and chat about making classics and hits with Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey.
For their performance, Bleachers performed “Alma Mater,” the recently-released single that moves between a hazy, torrid dreamscape and a noir-ish surge of late-night sax glory. Del Rey, unfortunately, was not on hand to provide backing vocals (as she does on the studio recording), but Antonoff did have a sample machine loaded up with some of her best lines to help make her presence known.

There’s no doubting that the budgets and ambitions of music videos have dwindled since the glory days of MTV. We live in the age of TikTok-targeted ephemera. Yet miraculously, 2023 gave a much-needed shot of cinematic life to the form.
The best videos of the year emphasized meticulous technique over virality, offering intimate, impressionistic portraits of their respective artists’ interior lives and thoughts. Lana Del Rey and Lucy Dacus subverted Old Hollywood tropes, with a meta riff on studio system-era glamor and a lesbian tweaking of Wizard of Oz, respectively.
Others went bigger. Troye Sivan brought back the sheen and unabashed sexuality of Y2K pop princesses with a drag transformation that represents the performance of his career to date. Doja Cat took a maximalist approach to portraying the simultaneous highs and horrors of stardom, while Olivia Rodrigo constructed an elaborate, blood-splattered supernatural story to rival The Lost Boys.

Back in June, Lana Del Rey hit the stage at Glastonbury 30 minutes after her scheduled start time. She told the audience that her headlining performance was delayed because her hair took so long to do. Regardless of the reasoning, the festival cut power to her set when the clock struck midnight. In a recent interview with the Sunday Times, the singer opened up about being in the dark — both literally and figuratively — about how strict the event’s curfew really was.
“I’ve heard of curfews before,” Del Rey said.

This week, Lana Del Rey has further cemented her status as a torch-bearer of Americana culture. First, she performed Elvis’ “Unchained Melody” on NBC’s Christmas at Graceland, and now, she’s shared a cover of John Denver’s classic song, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
Swapping Denver’s folksy guitar for a reverb-washed piano, Del Rey’s take on the classic sing-along captures a similar sense of wonder as the original, but interpolates a haunting quality (pretty standard territory for her). As the piano’s bounce gains momentum, it’s almost as if you’re listening to the echoes of an old bar’s parlor piano, still reverberating even after the conversations it once scored have long been forgotten by time. The pedal steel licks, meanwhile, remind you of the song’s ‘70s folk rock origins, while Del Rey’s hazy, ever-so-Del-Rey-esque vocal performance firmly plants her arrangement in the present day.

At this point in her career, Lana Del Rey could release an entire album of her excellent covers — from Sublime’s “Doin’ Time” to Tammy Wynette’s “Stand By Your Man” to her newly-released rendition of Elvis’ “Unchained Melody.” Now she’s taken on John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
Del Rey’s take on the 1971 classic is unsurprisingly campy and Americana, with flourishes of emotions throughout the track.

Lana Del Rey, Post Malone, Kacey Musgraves, and more appeared on NBC’s Christmas at Graceland, a television special celebrating the legacy of Elvis Presley and his canon of holiday classics. The special premiered on Wednesday, November 29th, and is available to replay in full on Peacock. Watch select clips below.
Del Rey sang “Unchained Melody” and Musgraves performed “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” Post Malone delivered a solo guitar rendition of (“You’re The) Devil In Disguise,” which culminated with him jumping into Elvis’ swimming pool. And Alanis Morissette sang “Last Christmas” next to Elvis’ plane.
The special marked the first televised concert to take place inside of Elvis’ Graceland estate in Memphis, Tennessee. His granddaughter, Riley Keough, who inherited Graceland after Lisa Marie Presley passed away earlier this year, executive produced the special.

Lana Del Rey has shared “The Grants,” the latest single from her upcoming ninth studio album, Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.
On the track, Del Rey (born Elizabeth Grant) appears to pay tribute to the memory of her late uncle David Grant, who died in 2016 while climbing the Rocky Mountains. “I’m gonna take mine of you with me,” Del Rey sings. “Like ‘Rocky Mountain High’/ The way John Denver sings.”
“The Grants” was co-written with Mike Hermosa and features backing vocals from singers Melodye Perry, Pattie Howard, and Shikena Jones, who all appeared in the 2013 music documentary 20 Feet from Stardom.
