Here are some photos of Lana del Rey was spotted looking quite unlike her overly Photoshopped, H&M advert campaign self in Los Angeles on Friday evening. Of course, I don’t have a problem with Lana dressing down and taking a bit of a break from her glammed-up, lipsticked image, but those cutoff shorts are, well, atrocious. It’s one thing to show off great legs in daisy dukes, but when the pockets are hanging out of the bottom of them, that’s pretty gross. Cut out the pockets or make the shorts long enough to cover them, right?
We didn’t cover this a few weeks ago, but Lana’s got a new video out for her Ride single (that leads the publicity charge for Born to Die — The Paradise Edition, which arrives in November). As with most of her vids, there’s a lot of retro imagery, but through it all in this video, the narrative flashes back to Lana sitting atop a throne while flanked by a pair of (CGI?) tigers as she lipsynch-drones her lyrics. She also frolics in a pair of daisy dukes that look much better than the pair she’s wearing in these pictures.
Back to the question at hand though — what is going on with Lana’s grubby outfit? Rihanna was spotted on Friday evening in a similar getup — white tee and daisy dukes — and she looked much more polished (even if she’s a mess on the inside).

Atleast Lana doesnt have Rihanna’s zoned out face….
Yes but if you look up the definition of “insufferable twit” you get a gigantic pic of Ms. Lana del Rey.
Even her name makes me want to slap something.
Eh, Rihanna has the legs and the right measure of grunge going on. Lana’s is a hodge podge, and she has crappy granny pear lady legs, like me. Really narrow on top, wiiiide on the bottom, and if you don’t do your lunges, your legs will always be friends in the middle.
LOL I die, I die!
Bwahahaha!! Granny-pear legs! The absolute best thing I’ve heard! 🙂
Funny, but legs meeting in the middle has absolutely nothing to do with lunges 😉 it’s more about the butter on your bread honey.
I really really hate this super short with pocket hanging out trend; So not liking it on any of them.
+ 1
It’s October! Dress for the season.
It really depends on where they are. Where I am last week featured two 90+ degree days, and most of the rest of the week was in the 80’s or high 70’s so if they were somewhere with similar weather these outfits would have been appropriate as far as the temperature is concerned. (The styling is still up for debate though.)
Well in America it is autumn and that’s where they are I think
Well in America it is autumn and that’s where they are I think. Trashy sloppy cutoffs are for vacation in july
I’m in America as well, and if they were in LA then they are much farther south than I am so presumably where they were was much warmer than where I am. Fall comes at different times depending where you are on the continent.
I do agree with you that cutoffs should generally be reserved for the peak of summer, or cleaning your house or doing yard work, BUT, it was really hot last week and I was wearing my summerwear too. (Not cutoffs though, those haven’t been my style since high school.)
Rihanna – hands down. She has “Fake-Lips Del Rey” beat by a country mile.
Talk about duck lips.
These tiny shorts (with the pockets sticking out from underneathe) are no bigger than dinner napkins… Who decided that was a good (classy…) look?
Don’t like it on either of them.
She has amazing legs. I don’t find the cut off trend atrocious if the legs are toned and there is not much going on up top as lana has it. I need to get back to hitting the leg machines at the gym
I hate both of them. Damn Rihanna, ever heard of an oil blotting sheet? Home girl is 50 shades of greasy.
I have to carry those blotting sheets around in my purse >.< I look a hot mess like Rihanna here, if I don't.
RiRi wins
Lana del Rey???!!!! She’s gross w/her inflated lips….creeps me out. Ugh!
Rihanna wins. Lana looks like she’s running errands.
Rihanna.
For the video: is it me or all her songs sound the same??
It doesn’t help that the video is actually from December so you’ve probably already heard the song already.
Riri by a mile. She looks “put together” while Lana just looks dull.
Also Lana’s face…I can’t.
What about her face…has she altered it or something? I don’t know a think about LDR.

Lana looks adorable. Riri just disturbs me at this point.
Who is this broad and why am I being forced to care??? Both look trashy.
Riri’s outfit looks WAY better but I don’t like her hair.
Lana’s face and hair looks BEAUTIFUL here.
I cannot stand her hair!! The teeny tiny bangs aren’t flattering on *anyone*, in my opinion. (They always make a person’s forehead look huge).
Rihanna’s shorts look odd to me. It looks like a sweater wrapped into a belt (?) but it looks like its UNDER the shorts. Anyone see that? It’s bugging me!
What it looks like to me is a ‘button up’ shirt (left unbuttoned), then the sleeves are pulled forward through the belt-loops of the shorts (& tied in the front), which leaves the rest of the shirt *hanging* on the sides & back.
It’s just a really sloppy attempt to get the ‘scarf belt’ look while using a shirt instead.
Rihanna.
Rihanna >>>>> despite her personal life. I don’t understand the internets obsession with Lana Del Rey. I’ve tried listening to her music and she’s horrible.
The general consensus is her daddy is rich dot.com millionaire i believe and is buying her celebrity and “career” In a world where talent mattered, her “performance” on SNL this spring should’ve killed her singing career, as it was a parody of how bad some of today’s pop music is.
Oh, I didn’t know she was rich. I only know her from the internet and the SNL thing and she was so horrible. I was confused as to how she got on there in the first place, but I guess now I know.
That video is for Born to Die and is really old. The “Ride” video is about ten minutes long and she spends half of it riding around on a motorcycle. I love celebitchy but they’ve been wrong on a lot of facts lately
Word.
Yup. Wrong video…
I just don’t get the attention this girl gets, she is not that pretty her top lip looks fake and her singing is bland! She is like dry white toast so very bland.
Rihanna, baby.
She’s wearing the exact outfit that she is wearing in her new Ride video.
Lana’s fake face bothers the f*ck out of me and I’m not sure why. Plenty of people in Hollywood have plastic surgery and it’s whatever, but Lana’s face creeps me out for some reason. So I’ll give this to Rihanna.
That video is TERRIBLE. It’s like KStew set to music with a really ugly boyfriend.
We’re all “born to die”, dipsh*t.
RiRi looks much better. She is wearing an actual outfit and, for once, it’s pretty good. Other chick looks like she’s cleaning out her garage. Fake spots on a crappy shirt are just fake spots on a crappy shirt.
Eleonor riri’s songs all sound the same because the corporate machine has very little real talent to work with;
They are both talentless twits and beyond annoying – that’s all I’ve got.
I get “Monica circa 1996” vibes from Rihanna, and both women make me want to puke so I can’t fairly judge this battle 🙂
Her video is a self-indulgent piece of pseudo porn…
No contest – Rihanna.
Lana del rey looks like unrealistic computer animation to me
I can’t get past Lana’s (Lizzie’s?) legs. They are amazing. Very toned and strong. I’m super envious. The rest … meh. I don’t care.
