Lana Del Rey is "the most captivating popstar on the planet"

[Cody Draco 2,531]

It's not about how much she looks/acts/sings/performs like a pop star, it's just that she doesn't make pop music She's an alternative artist who has, more than once, publicly denounced and criticized her own success, going against the grain of anything a "pop star" is supposed to be on a lyrical level and in her interviews so there really isn't one good reason why she should be grouped next to the typical pop girls.

It's just a sad consequence of individual female artists automatically falling into that competitive "star" category because of wide exposure, a gay following and a semi-obsessive (in a pop cultural way) fanbase. Would never happen with a male artist.

Musically, the purpose for her creating, etc. she has nothing in common with Demi, Rihanna, Katy, Selena, Ariana, etc. I guess I should've expanded what I was saying.

I agree with everything you have said.

But I can't find any lies

I love Lana but this is a little much. I mean the album is really good but it's not THAT good.

[Creyk 17,358]

I don't see any lies here.

I disagree with the "pop star" bit. Just cuz the Lipsters stan for her like she's a pop star doesn't make her a pop star. Calling Lana a "pop star" carries the implication that Lana has mainstream ambitions, which she doesn't.

Ultraviolence is a form of rock. The rest of her official material is a form of baroque pop (sometimes mixed with another genre due to the electronic beats some of the songs have), and baroque pop is a form of alternative rock.

She is captivating tho. I admire her commitment to her aesthetic.

Apart from the "popstar" part, which is a little questionable, I see no lies

[Sister 9,907]

She's captivating for me in the sense that she still tries to remain an enigma, living away from the public eye. I always liked that about Gaga when she first emerged.

Yes. I hope that she won't lose her mystery, intrigue and allure easily. That is what makes her so great.

If we're putting her against people like Demi Lovato and Katy Perry, I agree with this opinion.

If we're comparing her with Lorde or Marina and The Diamonds... Not so much.
