But before we rush out to bury poor Lana, let's exercise some restraint. First, it's "SNL," a rushed, over-managed studio behemoth that's destroyed plenty of artists in the past, without even getting into the infamous Ashlee Simpson lip-sync incident. Secondly, regardless of how much her performance skills and confidence clearly need a boost (and to be fair, reports from other, smaller shows are far more complimentary), her songs are still pretty unimpeachable, meaning you should still be excited for the upcoming album. Not to speak ill of the dead, but it's not like Amy Winehouse was known for her stellar live shows, either.

Ugh, I can't help it. Im bored to death. It's like "daddy, buy me a hit record" oh "and I'm cross eyed!" Okay, she probably didn't say the second part, but hasn't anyone noticed???? The droning songs, the overplayed video; yawn, yawn yawn... I hope Lana Del Rey, marries a nice investment banker and moves to, oh, I don't know, somewhere like Marina Del Rey where she can blend in with all the soccer moms, which is exactly what she was raised to be.
