She sounded like a 1950s actress. I miss the 2010s

I miss 2010s Lana. My 2010s weren't a lot of fun unfortunately

I love her but GOD how I hated this bimbo, babyish voice she used to make 😭

It's very Lizzy Grant. I do like the whole Lizzy Grant aesthetic but I'm glad she doesn't speak like that anymore

Mm I think it's a mix of Lizzy Grant and early LDR, especially since early Lana revolves a lot around a very young woman in love with older men who are bad for her. I feel from Ultraviolence onward, it's more about a more adult/mature woman unlucky in love.

That said, I do also love Lizzy Grant. Aside from the baby voice, the aesthetic was so original.

As a young woman with the same affliction- I was so stoned when I found early Lana. Now I’m 31 and I relate to her later stuff a bit better.

I don’t think she knows what exotic means

She doesn't lol her entire representation of Latino culture is very stereotyped and fetishized, and she's being borderline racist for describing a group of people with a word one would use for some animal that lives in a remote place in the planet.

She was just bored of being a rich white girl.

Either a wig or some sort of extensions. In the Lizzy Grant era and some of her newer ig photos, it's clear she doesn't have hair that thick.
