"Picsart has the alt girls on a chokehold," one person wrote, comparing Eilish's "Happier Than Ever" cover to Del Rey's "Let Me Love You Like a Woman."
Del Rey's "Blue Banisters" will arrive just four months after her seventh album, "Chemtrails Over the Country Club" — whose cover was criticized for entirely different reasons.
"No this was not intended-these are my best friends, since you are asking today," she wrote — although it was written as a standalone comment, not a reply to anyone in particular.
"As it happens when it comes to my amazing friends and this cover, yes, there are people of color on this record's picture and that's all I'll say about that," she wrote, adding: "My best friends are rappers, my boyfriends have been rappers."
Capitol riot suspect says her mesh mask, which may violate court order, is inspired by Lana Del
An anti-masker who stormed the US Capitol during the insurrection on 6 January claimed a mesh face covering she wore was not done to mock the court or show her disapproval of coronavirus policies, but rather to pay homage to the singer Lana Del Ray.
US District Judge Royce Lamberth asked Ms Powell to explain the ineffective face mask and her apparent flouting of the court order she had been given. He claimed that she was mocking the order she had been given.
Ms Powell's attorney called her decision "clearly unwise" in a filing made on Monday, but said her intent was not to mock the orders she was given, but rather to express her fandom for singer Lana Del Ray, who wore a similar style of mask.
The lawyer said Ms Powell had "seen stories about a singer, Lana Del Rey , who fashioned a clear plastic barrier under a see-through fabric for a public book signing event".
He described it as a "poor choice in wearing the mask at issue, however it was not done with a bad intent".
The singer apparently wore a similar mask, which had a clear plastic element beneath a mesh outer layer. The performer was criticised at the time after wearing the mask to a book signing, but her defenders pointed out the mask had the plastic layer, making it effective at blocking particles.
"The mask had plastic on the inside. They're commonly sewn in by stylists these days. I don't generally respond to articles because I don't care. But there ya go. Same goes for everyone's masks in my video. I'm lucky enough to have a team of people who can do that," she wrote on Twitter following the incident.
In the aftermath of the Capitol riot, Ms Powell became known as the "bullhorn lady" for the bullhorn she allegedly carried during the event.
She is accused of at one point using a battering ram in the fray and of shouting orders to other rioters through her bullhorn.

BLACKPINK's Rose & Her Dog Hank Take Over Billboard's Instagram | Billboard
Dog is woman's best friend, and in this case, Hank is always by Rosé of BLACKPINK 's side even while she took over Billboard 's Instagram on Tuesday (April 27).
The rescue pup made multiple appearances during the takeover, including snuggling at the singer's feet, joining her for an interview, and more. Between takes of the two cuddling up together, the 24-year-old K-pop star shared behind-the-scenes videos of her chat with Billboard , in which she discusses discovering the path to her solo career with her breakthrough single "On The Ground," which topped both the Billboard Global 200 and Global 200 Excl. U.S. charts -- making her the first K-pop soloist to do so.
"It's like little baby steps of figuring out who you are and what you want to be. Everybody's a chameleon, everybody can be all sorts of colors. At one point, you gotta choose: This is me, this sounds like me, this will describe me," she says. "Working as BLACKPINK for the past four years has given me a lot of experience, so when I am off on my own, I do know what I'm doing most of the time."
During an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show last month, Rosé told her fellow pop star how she came to adopt Hank in December. "Hank is like the cutest puppy. I adopted him, so in Korea, there's a bunch of people who upload these puppies who are up for adoption and they don't have a home," the "On the Ground" singer explained. "So I saw him online and this lovely lady was posting about him, telling people to adopt, not buy. I fell in love with him, and he's just so adorable."
"Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass" – okay?
Poetry is one of the most difficult things to discuss in any sort of objective manner. The truth is, most of us have a different perception of what it means for something to be considered poetry. Especially over the last few years, I think we've seen an influx of celebrities writing and releasing their own poetry books. Most recently, we've seen releases from Lili Reinhart of Riverdale, Gabbie Hanna from YouTube, Bella Thorne from Disney Channel, and now Lana Del Rey. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Lana Del Rey is a musician whose first major album debuted in 2012. Some of her most well-known songs include "Summertime Sadness," "Blue Jeans," and "Born to Die." She is a six-time Grammy nominated musician in the dream pop genre.
Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is Lana Del Rey's first published written work. The 120-page book was released in 2020 and includes a lot of photographs within. As such a popular lyricist, her poetry was expected to be amazing. Personally, it wasn't for me.
I think Lana's poetry had an audience, and that consists of her fans and readers of newer poetry. While the book itself is gorgeous, and the writing is okay, the content simply didn't blow me away. Over the years, poetry has changed a lot. Especially with the popularity of Rupi Kaur's Milk and Honey , a new genre of poetry has become extremely popular. In my opinion, this new genre is known as internet poetry. To me, this often means the poems read like a status update on Facebook, more than they do a poem. The other indication of internet poetry is the feeling that you're reading someone's journal. That is exactly how I would describe the reading experience of this book.
The pictures are beautiful, the cover is stunning, but I'm not sure the content was entirely worth my time or my $19.99, though that is purely based on my preference of poetry. As I read more, I'm discovering that this style isn't for me.
Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is available as a print book, ebook, and as a spoken word album. These are available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and wherever you listen to music.
