Lana Del Rey covers "Complex Magazine". Remains flaw-free!

Lana del Rey might have gotten a backlash for her SNL-performance three weeks ago. But it's definitely not slowing her down. In fact it might be bad publicity, but at the end of the day better bad publicity than none.

Lana doesn't give a shit about others, so that's why this cover shoot is so fitting. The 25-year-old stood in front of the lenses for Complex Magazine; the outcome: A classy Lana Del Rey with a short and sexy khaki-colored trench coat, holding a big black umbrella and shielding herself from the storm. She gives Rihanna a run for her money. Never did a woman look sexier with an umbrella.

The pictures is definitely a symbolism of all the downpour of criticism that Lana had to deal with lately. Put she never looked better and her eyes let her seem cool and unimpressed. Simply flawless.

She shared some thoughts on her way of performing: "My real fans know I'm not a showstopper on stage. I don't have f*ckin' circus lights. I just don't care. My fans are there because they want to hear the record live." Del Rey, also shared the fact that she's not driven to make the world listen to her pop songs. She told Complex: "I wasn't sing or die. I was also passionate about my community. I felt like I could have gone in several directions."

She went on to say that her life growing up was everything but perfect: " I know how to go, from being a non-functioning member of society to a functioning one," she told. "I was crazy!".

She wouldn't go further into details, which leaves me with a starving interest: " I won't go into it. It's not helpful to know. I was just reckless. But that was a long time ago. Being human is difficult. Some people make it more difficult than others. I was one of those people." PREACH IT GURL! I know exactly how she feels.


Well, I think anyone who still thinks that she's fake and not real about herself is just not listening here. Well, she has an answer for that, too: "I write my own songs. I made my own videos. I pick my producers. Nothing goes out without my permission. It's all authentic."

Haters gon' hate. There's nothing we can do about it. I know just one thing. Her music gives me life and she's bringing back real music in this glitter-infested after hour filled with dirty and generic beats.

Thank you Lana.

Interview: Britney talks to Peter Robinson for Stylist Magazine


PopJustice's Peter Robinson got invited to have a friendly chat with Britney Spears. As you all might probably now, Britney's interviews haven't been really interesting as of late. We usually get how she loves, them vanilla candles, how she adores her children and is happy to be in a relationship with Jason Trawick.

So it's very nice to see, that Peter actually managed to get some partially interesting information out of her soulless body for once. Take a look at some of the best moments, perfectly picked by Bradley Stern from MuuMuse and click here for the full interview from Stylist.

What was the last book you read?
The Mastery Of Love [sub-titled A Practical Guide To The Art Of Relationship by Don Miguel Ruiz]. It’s basically an analysis of love and what it means to love. It goes through all the different aspects of love. Who you are as a person, knowing yourself before you even attempt to love anyone else; that sort of thing. It’s really well-written and thought-provoking. 
You’ve said in the past that it’s a thirst for success that defines you. Has your definition of success changed over the years? 
For me, success is a state of mind. I feel like success isn’t about conquering something, it’s being happy with who you are.
When you’re performing, what are you thinking about?
What do I think about? Wow. Usually I’m so in the moment of being there with the audience that I don’t really have time to think about anything. You’re just focused on the tunes and what you’re doing and interacting with the audience and making sure you’re on cue. It’s more like a yoga state of mind, you know? 
What music are you listening to at the moment?
Well I usually listen to a lot of hip-hop in my dressing room when I’m getting ready to go on stage, so Jay-Z a lot recently. And a lot of rock stuff like Aerosmith. That really gets me going and pumps me up. And then of course, there’s Jessie J and Adele. 
Who’d be your dream musical collaboration at this stage?
          Gwen Stefani.

I'm still wondering if Gwen would ever accept a collaboration with Britney, but the idea is not bad. Plus, I simply can't picture Britney listening to Jay-Z or Aerosmith, it sounds so awkward and off.  Oh well, it's Britney after all, she's full of surprises.

The Femme Fatale Tour DVD was released on November 21. (iTunes)

Interview: SNSD / Girls Generation are interviewed by "Access Hollywood"


A recent video of Girls Generation's interview with Access Hollywood has been revealead.

Well, to be precise with Tiffany, Jessica and Sooyoung. Although I'm not really counting Sooyoung, because all she was doing during this interview was mumble, look weird and helpless. Bitch didn't know what to do with her life. In comparison, Tiffany and Jessica did a great job, they have very good English, it's clear they have been raised in the USA so it's their time to shine and all the other hoe's need to sit the fuck down. Especially Yoona, that tramp. Can't stand her face.

They basically, talked about the experience of coming to the US, recording they're first song in English and all the editing they had to do until it sounded halfway decent.

I wonder what the other 6 girls were doing? They were probably chained at a desk and had to learn the whole day English.

Take a look after the jump!
