Lana Del Rey & Fame

  I don't think I'll do Top 5 LDR anymore. I'll do other musicians, just not her. Why? Recently, as she's shown, I guess, disdain for being famous, it just doesn't feel right. I don't care if she wants to quit music, I don't care about what she does, because she is just another human like me. However, it is upsetting to see her at least seem upset. I know she's never liked being famous, and I know maybe sometimes she did, like when she got to make people happy and tell her stories. I just wish things went better for her. I wish a lot of her fans weren't so fucking mean. You can't call yourself a fan of someone, then go and say tons of rude things about them. I feel guilty for having her pictures on my wall, especially Lizzy ones, because it feels like I'm not even supposed to see them. For ones where she modeled, those are a little alright because sometimes they were in magazines. But you can't help but wonder how some of these people acquired these pictures. And then you have the people actively trying to physically hurt her. I get the pain. I get the "tired-of-it-all" feeling. The fear. Maybe I'm just too empathetic. I just want her to be okay, genuinely. Not as a fan, but from one living person to another.
