DOES DWAYNE JOHNSON USE STEROIDS
Dwayne The Rock Johnson, as he is popularly referred to, is one of the most influential personalities in the world. His alias, The People’s Champ, speaks so much about his influence, considering that he has more than 14 million followers on Twitter and close to 161 million followers on Instagram.
DJ is also not only one of the most sought after actors in Hollywood but is also the highest paid, according to Forbes 2019. He has appeared in several Box Office smash hits over the decades. Notable mentions include Pain & Gain with Mark Wahlberg, Fast and Furious with Vin Diesel, Baywatch with Zac Efron, and Hercules, to mention a few.

Dwayne Johnson is renowned for his charming and infectious personality, but most notably, his enormous physique. The actor-wrestler stands at 6ft 4 and usually weighs roughly 265 pounds of pure, lean muscle. As he continues to age, he continues to grow bigger, and his muscles more defined. This has led to considerable speculation regarding the Rock and steroid usage.
Before we can delve in, let’s make it clear that this article is not definitive. However, we will try to answer the widely-asked question, using our knowledge of steroids. Ps, we don’t want to have our asses kicked or sued by The Rock.
Let’s jump in and find out whether Dwayne Johnson is on Steroids.
Who Is Dwayne Johnson?
This is probably a no-brainer considering the kind of impact this man has had on mainstream media. Anyway, Dwayne Johnson is a former pro wrestler with WWE, formerly known as WWF. He is a seventeen-time WWE champion (10 as World Heavyweight Champion), an eight-time WCW champion, two-time WWF Intercontinental champion, and a five-time WWF Tag Team champion.
The People’s Champ, as he was nicknamed during his wrestling days left wrestling for a career in acting becoming one of the most sought after Hollywood actors of all time. He is also the highest-paid actor after grossing approximately $86 million in 2019 alone.
The rock has starred in numerous films and seems to have carved out a niche for himself. Recently, he’s been taking on leading male roles demanding a superhuman physique. For instance, he was cast as a bodybuilder in Pain & Gain. In 2014, he played Hercules, the son of a Greek god and a human woman. Recently, he has featured in the Fast and Furious franchise where he plays Luke Hobbs, a former DSS agent, renowned for his superior tracking skills, not to mention his strength and combat ability. In the movie, he once introduced himself as, “I’m what you’d call an ice-cold can of whoop-ass.” Well, says a lot about the guy.
Dwayne Johnson Transformation
During Johnson’s career as a wrestler, he’d weigh in at 275. The guy was packing a little extra fat, and anyone could tell that he wasn’t ripped to shreds. However, he had an impressive physique.
When he left for acting, he went down several sizes and dropped to below 220 pounds. Word has it that Dwayne’s agents believed that his smaller physique would land him more roles and prevent the potential actor from being typecast.
However, around 2010, he began bulking up and took on more edgy roles. For instance, when he played Luke Hobbs for the first time in Fast Five, he was a legit 260-pounder. Since then, the actor has continued becoming bulkier and bulkier. Not only does he grow bulkier, but he also continues to become shredded in the process.
Dwayne even played a bodybuilder in Pain & Gain, an American dark comedy movie about musclemen wishing to live the American dream. It is an understatement to state that in this movie, Dwayne Johnson looked huge. Well, that was a pretty significant transformation.
What’s more impressive is that the remarkable transformation occurred later on in his life. He looks better now in his forties compared to his physique in his late twenties, which was considered the prime of his athletic career.
One can’t help but wonder whether Dwayne Johnson has achieved his bulk, lean physique through sheer hard work, or could steroids have played a part in this tremendous physique makeover?
Dwayne Johnson Gynecomastia
Are you a wrestling fan? Well, you may remember that earlier that year, The Rock used to wrestle in a black t-shirt and black sweats. This was quite unusual since he was accustomed to wearing trunks, elbow pads, and knee pads.
It is believed that the reason for his different outfit was because he had recently undergone surgery to remove fat tissue from around his nipple. This procedure is associated with a condition known as gynecomastia. As you may know, gynecomastia is one of the many side effects of steroid use.
Therefore, while the gyno may have been caused by using steroids, there are other causes of gynecomastia, as well.
Dwayne Johnson Admitted to Using Steroids
Calm down Rocky fans. It is The Rock himself who broached the controversial subject of steroids. During an interview with MTV, the rock admitted that he had experimented with steroids during his college football days in his late teenage years. According to the professional wrestler turned actor, he and his friends experimented with performance-enhancing drugs, although they were not aware of how dangerous they were at the time.
Simply put, it was like teenagers experimenting with marijuana or cigarettes. While the behavior is dangerous, the intent certainly isn’t. Overall, Dwayne has clarified that it was an isolated incident, and he has never used these substances since that time. The movie superstar insisted that anabolic steroids do not make someone stronger and only damper one’s performance.
Dwayne Johnson Genetic Freak
Undeniably, Dwayne Johnson’s physique is one of the comic-book proportions. Honestly, some superheroes would covet the man’s physique. Wait a minute, did you see the man in the 2014 movie Hercules? Guy looked like a moving mountain. Everything about him in that movie said half-human, half-god.
And if you saw him in Pain & Gain, you must have noticed his prominent delts and traps. Our vast steroid knowledge tells us that deltoids and traps are the most notable features of an individual that uses steroids. These muscle groups contain considerably more androgen receptors than others. As a result, they tend to be well-defined, more than other muscles; it is usually one of the indicators of someone using androgenic anabolic steroids.
However, when it comes to Dwayne Johnson, one may argue otherwise, considering that he has always had massive delts and traps, even during his wrestling days.
Therefore, while you could easily attribute Dwayne’s iconic physique to steroid use, you should remember that he hails from a lineage of titans. Rock hails from a long line of large, powerful people. He is a third-generation wrestler belonging to the Anoa’i family.
Dwayne Johnson is the son of Alan Rocky Johnson, a wrestling legend. He is the grandson of Peter Maivia, a Samoan-American professional wrestler. Other famous members of the Anoa’i family include Rousey, Rikishi, Umaga, Yokozuna, Roman Reigns, The Usos, and Afa Anoa’i, to mention a few.
With that said, it isn’t that hard to see where he gets his larger than life physique.
So, is Dwayne Johnson On Steroids?
Well, Dwayne Johnson’s physique is quite impressive, considering that he is 45 years old. It is, therefore, reasonable to wonder whether he is on steroids. As mentioned earlier, he has made his stance on anabolic steroids pretty clear. However, has he considered legal steroids?
One sign of steroid use is overdevelopment in various areas of the upper body. While Dwayne’s upper body is quite well-built, his overall physique is proportional. On the contrary, steroid users tend to have massive upper bodies and tiny waists. But that is not the case with Dwayne Johnson. His muscles are not overly full or juicy and are within the achievable range.
Another point to consider is vascularity. Did you know that the slightest steroid usage makes the veins pop out? However, no more veins are visible on Dwayne Johnson’s body than there would be on the same man of the same age. As you continue to age, you become more and more vascular.
Diet is a crucial aspect when it comes to one’s physique. Due to Dwayne Johnson’s wealth, he can afford to eat more than 5000 calories of high-quality food per day, alongside various supplements as directed by his nutritionist. The movie star also has access to the best coaches and chefs possible, allowing him to get maximum gains.
Dwayne Johnson also has a solid workout regimen where he puts in long hours in the gym; he trains six days a week, sometimes twice a day. With that kind of dedication, it would be difficult not to realize astounding results.
It will be surprising if Dwayne Johnson isn’t on steroids, even a little bit, with the doctor’s help, of course. On the other hand, he could be using legal steroids.
However, it doesn’t matter much whether Dwayne Johnson is on steroids. His professional and personal accomplishments are not attributable to steroids. If you know anything about the man, you’ll know that everything he has accomplished has been a combination of sheer hard work, planning, and endless willpower.

Great Gatsby star Kate Mulvany has revealed her experiences after she recovered from childhood cancer.
The 41-year-old actress from Geraldton, Western Australia, has endured chronic pain for almost 30 years, as her body tried to recover from excessive radiation treatment for renal cancer.
The busy playwright was aged three when she was diagnosed with the cancer, which was later connected to her father Danny's exposure to Agent Orange in the Vietnam War.
Speaking about her decades of physical suffering, Mulvany explained she was never angry with her body but rather the systems that made her body that way.
'I'm angry that I have a cancer that came from the spraying of dioxin in South-East Asia in a war six years before I was even born,' she told The Weekend Australian.
Mulvany was diagnosed with renal cancer at age three, which was connected to her father's time fighting in the jungle during the Vietnam War.
Mulvany had once dreamed of having six children but was devastatingly advised against it.
The Little Death actress explained her mother had always told her she probably wouldn't be able to be able to have children, but a doctor's diagnosis tipped her over the edge.
'When a doctor definitely said to me, ''Don't do it, don't even try'' I was furious,' she recalled.
'That was the first time I'd really felt bitter fury about who the f*** had made that choice about my body. Why would my body always have to deal with this?'
Mulvany, who has written 25 plays, said her legacy would be left through them.
Her father, who suffered from PTSD, died in 2017 following a battle with with oesophageal cancer.
Mulvany described him as a 'superhero' who held a lot of guilt, heartbreak and trauma about his legacy of dioxin.
In the years of battling chronic pain, Mulvany said she felt some relief when she decided to label her condition as a disability.
The hardworker won't turn down jobs from the pain but admits it's important to be frank when she's having a difficult day, as her body's not always able to cope like an able body.

Song Review: David Cook (@thedavidcook) - The Last Goodbye
David Cook releases his new single, “The Last Goodbye”, from his highly anticipated sophomore release, This Loud Morning tomorrow. This uptempo rock track is a perfect introduction to the new album, and the slightly heavier rock edge he’s taking with his music.
Up until now, all we’ve had available was bad live recordings of unreleased songs, and his debut of the Simple Minds cover, “Don’t You Forget About Me”, currently featured as the exit song on Season 10 of American Idol. This song, however, is the first original, studio recorded song we’ve heard from Cook since his debut album’s release in 2008. This was a long time to wait for new music, though David was touring for a year during this time.
"The Last Goodbye", co-written by Cook and OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder is an extremely catchy earworm, with meaningful and pained lyrics that stick in your head by the second listen. Lyrically reminiscent of Alanis Morrissette’s "You Oughta Know", but with less anger, this song is sure to be a big radio hit.
In his recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Tedder, who is also writing with Adam Lambert for his second album, said: "David was, like, "I want to do something uptempo," so his first single, “The Last Goodbye,” you would never know that I wrote it. It’s really emotional and it hits you with the chorus about 40 seconds into the song, so it’s just immediate…. [David is] great, more than any singer I’ve worked with, he contributed enormously lyrically and musically – he can play, he knows voicing, chords and arrangements as well as lyrics. He’s a full-on writer."
"The Last Goodbye" has a familiarity to it that makes the song feel like something you’ve listened to a million times, but it’s still very fresh and an instant head bobber. The familiarity is what will have you putting it on repeat.
David Cook will be on American Idol on April 21st to debut “The Last Goodbye” to the nation, so don’t miss it! If you hear this on the radio… make sure you let your local DJs know how much you like it! “The Last Goodbye” makes it’s official release tomorrow, April 19th, and the album, This Loud Morning is slated for release on June 28th.

Ringo Starr and others were honored at the Rock Hall of Fame this year. The way I understand it, he was inducted as a solo artist since I’m sure “The Beatles” were already in. Ringo is certainly aging well and deserving of all the accolades the music industry has to offer.
It’s hard to believe that it was fifty years ago that the Beatles were earning their way to fame and fortune. They had a huge impact on Rock/Pop music and you could make an argument that there would be no hall of fame without them.
The music business has changed a lot since the 1960’s. It used to be mostly about the music but I think now it’s more about the entertainment factor. Shock and awe in various forms seems to be the top seller these days. I remember our parents were pretty shocked about long hair and such things when they first appeared so I guess there’s always that.
Most rock stars wore Beatle Boots. The story goes that John and Paul were looking for a shoe to go with their Beatle Suits and found these Chelsea boots in London. They added a Cuban heel to them and the Beatle Boot was born. I wanted a pair back in the day and who can tell what might have happened if I’d gotten them. Evidently you can still buy them from Beat Wear in Liverpool so don’t count me out yet.
You hear talk about vinyl records making a comeback, perhaps the boots will come back with them. If they do, look for the price to be high. I saw a new vinyl album in a store the other day and it was going for $30. Not sure how that’s going to work with most of today’s music being offered for free.
It was good to see Ringo and Paul rocking it up at the hall. I couldn’t tell by the pictures but I wonder if they were wearing Beatle Boots.


A star burned out today. Perhaps not the one shining the brightest but arguably the firmamentally most prominent of stars. A man of artistic integrity to the point where it almost broke him followed by a restored artist balancing arts with the personal integrity he then lacked. Eventually the mark he left on the world is unequivocal and his latest album a worthy swansong, as it so tragically turns out. It would have been just like him to do that deliberately, wouldn’t it?

Kenny Perry reveals the heartfelt reason he stopped competing
Kenny Perry hasn’t played since the 2021 Charles Schwab Cup Championship, but there was never a formal retirement announcement from the now-62-year-old.
The 14-time PGA Tour and 10-time PGA Tour Champions winner was still finishing in the top 50 on the over-50 circuit when he stopped playing.
But some things are just more important than golf.
In an emotional interview with SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio, Perry revealed he retired to care for his wife Sandy, who is suffering from Alzheimer’s.
“I’ll let the world know: My wife’s sick,” Perry told Brian Katrek and John Maginnes on Katrek & Maginnes On Tap. “I’m her caretaker. And, you know, I’m going to take great care of her. And you know that Alzheimer’s is this terrible disease.”
Perry said he made the decision when he realized Sandy could no longer follow him on the golf course.
“I would chase her down, going down the wrong hole,” Perry said. “At the [U.S.] Senior Open two years ago, and it was a 36-hole complex, and she ended up going off on the other 18 holes.
“I realized right then, you know, it’s time for me to do something else. And it’s all good. She’s happy.”
He said Sandy is still very active and even “walks me to death” when the couple goes out for some exercise. She just has memory issues at this point.
In addition to caring for Sandy, Perry said he wants to be an advocate for finding a cure for the disease.
“I’ll probably start kind of being a spokesman for [it],” he said. “I’ll probably start looking into more of that and help other people who have the same conditions I’m looking into. You know, I’m trying to figure it out.”
Perry said he’s been to “every doctor in Nashville, Vanderbilt” looking for someone who can find a cure. He said there are only treatments to slow the disease’s progression.
“That’s all I want to do,” Perry said. “So she’ll know her grandkids and know me and just enjoy the rest of her life. I mean, we’ve worked so hard to get to this point, and I hate to see it to where she can’t enjoy it. You know, it’s pretty sad.”

There’s something so fun about a career story that starts well, by accident, and leads to great success. Before Garcia stumbled his way into the world of hair, he was the drummer in a “band that sounded like The Strokes,” he says, remembering his look at the time: “I wore a Canadian tuxedo with long, curly locks down to my belly button.”
The creator of Ghostlayers, Ramon specializes in making hair move. A haircut that is completely customizable and works to maximize the movement of each individual client’s hair giving them volume, without giving them choppy layers. Overlayering the hair can really hurt the hair so this is my take on effortless hair.
With over 12 years of experience, Ramon has client bases in Los Angeles, New York, Miami and Mexico City. His notable works have included published partnerships with Redken, Kerastase, Conde Nast, Love Magazine and red carpet celebrities.


They say that Yasiel Puig is the Cuban, millennial version of Bo Jackson. The more accurate comparison, however, is Herschel Walker. Due to the fact that they’re both physical freaks and that Herschel Walker continues to look 20 years younger than he actually is, the resemblance between the two is amazing.
Somebody check Herschel’s passport and see if he took any trips to Cuba approximately 20 years ago.

Henrik Stoltenberg Ex Freundin -Henrik Stoltenberg and Paulina Ljubas sought to test their allegiance to one another on the seduction show “Temptation Island VIP,” but they were ultimately unsuccessful. A few months after the shooting, the influencer now appears to be back on cloud nine.Henrik Stoltenberg 25 years old and Paulina Ljubas 30 years old were a hot subject during the previous season of “Temptation Island VIP” .
Almost immediately into the first episodes, it became clear that the ex-“Cologne 50667” actress was attracted to one of the seducers.The grandson of Gerhard Stoltenberg, the CDU leader and former Federal Minister of Defense who passed away in 2001, didn’t waste any of his inheritance, either.
You’ve met this new pal before.
Happiness for Henrik Stoltenberg and Paulina Ljubas did not last long after they left the program together. The two reality stars were constantly teasing each other on social media in the days leading up to the reunion episode. There was no doubt in anyone’s mind that the couple should no longer be together after this. The blond lad and the model broke up on the most recent episode of “Temptation Island VIP,” bringing with it a huge certainty. In spite of the fact that the 25-year-old looks to be single at the time, the stunning beauty has already found a new companion in Yasin, who put his loyalty to ex-girlfriend Alicia to the test in the third iteration of the famous format.
Paulina’s poop storm
It all went to hell for Paulina once the reunion episode aired. Because she never demonstrated any self-awareness or introspection, which was the primary reason. The Cologne resident then broke down in front of her Instagram fans and friends and reported the sad news. She also made false claims about Henrik’s financial dealings and his history of violence against her. Not long after, Ljubas said he was taking a break from social media. After barely five days, the 25-year-old reported back with a snapshot of a couple.
Paulina and Yasin’s rumored prior connection was a constant source of speculation for quite some time. In November of last year, a fan asked the basketball player about his relationship status, and he responded, “Happily taken.” In addition, he uploaded a snapshot of the two of them together. The only catch was that an enormous heart emoji obscured his significant other’s face. Paulina’s identity has been established as the culprit. As of now, it is unclear whether Henrik and his ex will continue their feud or if they will decide to put an end to their bitterness and go on.
Henrik Stoltenberg, a German contestant on the 2020 edition of “Love Island,” became a household name that year. Quickly gaining a following thanks to catchphrases like “Bon Schlonzo,” he was heralded as the season’s most entertaining breakout star and was invited to perform in more venues. After appearing on “Celebrities beneath Palm Trees” in 2021, he and his then-girlfriend participated in RTL’s “Temptation Island VIP” in the same year. Following Henrik Stoltenberg’s conviction for hate speech in February 2023, RTL severed ties with him.
A sedition conviction against Henrik Stoltenberg
Henrik Stoltenberg appeared before the Cologne District Court on February 22, 2023, and was fined 15,000 euros for inciting hatred and using anti-constitutional symbols. Stoltenberg will feel the effects of the ruling in more ways than one. RTL severing ties with the grandson of Gerhard Stoltenberg. Former German Defense Minister and CDU politician Gerhard Stoltenberg’s grandson, Henrik, died in 2001. His grandfather, who was 73, passed away from cancer. Except the fact that he was one of the two offspring of the recently dead politician, little is known about Henrik’s father.
About the mother, we know nothing. The only other member of the family to make an appearance is Karol, Henrik’s brother.And he shows no signs of wanting to continue his grandfather’s political career. On the contrary, he’s probably aiming to become a reality show star. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has been in the spotlight daily since the situation between Russia and Ukraine worsened. Fans of Henrik Stoltenberg are starting to wonder if the two are connected. That question has a negative answer.
The NATO Secretary General is Norwegian, however neither Henrik nor his grandfather have any Norwegian ancestry. In 2020, Henrik Stoltenberg appeared on the “Love Island” show on RTL2. Along with Sandra Janina van der Heide, he placed third in the dating competition. He gained instant notoriety thanks to catchphrases like “Bon Schlonzo” and “Bon Flonzo.” “Celebrities beneath Palm Trees” was 2021’s follow-up reality show format.
A report in “Bild” claims that the Cologne man was booted from the show after getting into a physical altercation with another contestant, Melanie Müller. Daily News said that threatening actions were taken towards the ex-jungle queen. However, viewers never got to see the fight since Willi Herren’s untimely death forced the cancellation of the second season of “Celebrities under Palm Trees.” Starting in November 2021, Henrik Stoltenberg and his then-girlfriend Paulina Ljubas appeared in another garbage format titled “Temptation Island VIP.
” They put their relationship through its paces for the show, and when both of them cheated, it was time to call it quits. Henrik Stoltenberg introduced Paulina Ljubas, star of “Cologne 50667,” as his new girlfriend at the start of December 2020. But, the couple split up after failing a TV compatibility test. Oral intercourse is suspected to have taken place between the politician’s grandson and another woman before he and the other woman vanished into the bushes. Paulina slept with another man as an act of vengeance.
Later, it was revealed that Henrik allegedly attempted to hook up with a contestant on yet another reality show.After their breakup, Paulina posted a video to Instagram in which she claimed she had evidence of Henrik’s infidelity. “I have so many voice notes and screenshots that clearly reveal that Henrik basically cheated all the time,” she said.Der frühe Tod von illi Herren erzwang die Absage der zweiten Staffel von „Promis unter Palmen“. Ab November 2021 traten Henrik Stoltenberg und seine damalige Freundin Paulina Ljubas in einem anderen Müllformat mit dem Titel „Temptation Island VIP“ auf.
Sie haben ihre Beziehung für die Show auf Herz und Nieren geprüft, und als sie beide betrogen haben, war es Zeit, es zu beenden. Henrik Stoltenberg stellte Anfang Dezember 2020 Paulina Ljubas, Star aus „Köln 50667“, als seine neue Freundin vor. Doch das Paar trennte sich, nachdem es einen TV-Kompatibilitätstest nicht bestanden hatte. Zwischen dem Enkel des Politikers und einer anderen Frau soll es zu Oralverkehr gekommen sein, bevor er und die andere Frau im Gebüsch verschwanden. Paulina schlief aus Rache mit einem anderen Mann.
Später wurde bekannt, dass Henrik angeblich versucht hatte, sich mit einem Kandidaten einer weiteren Reality-Show zu treffen.Nach ihrer Trennung veröffentlichte Paulina ein Video auf Instagram, in dem sie behauptete, Beweise für Henriks Untreue zu haben. „Ich habe so viele Sprachnotizen und Screenshots, die deutlich zeigen, dass Henrik im Grunde die ganze Zeit geschummelt hat“, sagte sie.

I am in love with Lana Del Rey’s new single “Love.” In love with “Love.” Say that three times fast.
There is no release date for the singer-songwriter’s next album yet but with the single dropping last month, we can assume it’s on the horizon. The single “Love” is dreamy and divine and a tad bit dreary. It’s also catchy in a mellow way, which gives me high hopes for the upcoming album, because I adored Lana Del Rey’s first widely released album Born to Die (2012). Her follow-up albums Ultraviolence (2014) and Honeymoon (2015) had good artistry but I felt that a lot of the songs were too dismal and sleepy. In the right mood, I appreciated them. They both possessed a very consistent sound throughout making them cohesive as entire albums (and by the way, critics loved them).
For me though, it’s the album Born to Die that I always return to. Five years later, I still can’t get enough of “Ride,” “Video Games,” “Born to Die,” “Summertime Sadness,” “This is what Makes Us Girls,” and even the fluffy little gem “Radio” or the cheerleader-esque chant song “National Anthem.” If “Love” is any indication of the sound for her upcoming album, it sounds more in line with her songs on the Born to Die album, which featured many mid-tempo songs and choruses that were anthem-worthy.
In October 2015, Del Rey announced she was beginning to write material for her new record. She stated that her last two albums had a “California” sound, but if she were to make an album with a “New York” sound it would be a little harder, faster, more upbeat, and less dreamy. Recently she said that the upcoming album has “a retro sensibility with a futuristic flair.” Sounds interesting, and my fingers are crossed that she’s still leaning toward that “New York” sound.
One of the things that I like about 31-year-old Lana Del Rey as an artist is her unapologetic approach to being melancholy and dark. Yes, she’s also sexy and glamorous and pretty, and I think that makes some people feel like her misery can’t be real. How can someone who looks that good feel that bad? But isn’t that often how sadness or depression looks from the outside? Yes, there are plenty of people who are depressed or sad or in a difficult emotional state who can’t bear to put forth a “presentable” face. Their sadness is a stain on the air around them and their suffering is not a secret. But just as often, I think that sad people pull themselves together quite nicely, get themselves out the door quite efficiently, and smile at their co-workers and say “thank you” to the barista all the while hurting inside.
If you’ve read interviews with Lana Del Rey, you’ll find out that she struggled with alcoholism in her teens and she struggles with depression still. If you’ve watched interviews with Lana, you’ll see that she comes across as girly and coy but also a bit socially awkward. She suffers from stage fright as well.
Has she created an image of beautiful misery? Sure, of course. Lana Del Rey is like a high-gloss version of sadness. She sings beautifully and she looks beautiful, but beneath the glamour are her words of pain and darkness and occasionally hope. Does it come across as cultivated and even calculated? Yes, it does in some ways. But I think this is simply her version of turning real pain into true art. I think that some people have a hard time embracing her pain as reality because in this society, there is almost an expectation that if you’re too pretty, you don’t have the right to be sad. That’s not fair though. Your outward appearance does not dictate how you feel inside. If you happen to be conventionally pretty, it might mean you are perhaps lucky and it might mean that certain doors open more easily for you. But it certainly doesn’t mean that you are automatically happy.
Lana is also no stranger to controversy. Some of the things she has said in interviews have certainly sparked social or political waves, such as comments indicating a lack of interest in feminism. She later partially recanted by explaining that she writes personal accounts of her life and isn’t very familiar with the history of feminism, so she isn’t the right person to discuss feminism since she only writes autobiographically. Feminism at its original, basic definition simply means believing in equality for the sexes. (Which, by that definition, means that pretty much anyone decent is a feminist). But being a singer-songwriter doesn’t mean that she should be forced to make an official stance on social views. Do I personally think it’s wonderful when young female celebrities are positive role models? Absolutely! But I also strongly believe that just because Lana is young, pretty, and talented doesn’t mean that she should be required to be a role model to anyone. If she did try to turn herself into a quote unquote role model due to outside pressure, she would no longer make the music she now creates because her focus would change from inward to outward. And that’s not who she is. In many ways, her music is powerful because she seems to create it for herself. It doesn’t subscribe to radio play standards by any means. It’s unique to her. (However, that said, recent quotes from Lana do indicate a wider social awareness for this upcoming album. I’ll address that further down).
In a 2014 interview, Lana also said that she wished she were dead already and that her life felt like a really messed up movie. Statements like this are shocking, and if she’s not just saying things like this for shock value (which I don’t think she is), then it goes to show that the reason she gives us these dark, melancholy, lovely albums is because under the shiny styled hair, vintage dress, and cherry red lips, she is as raw and authentic as they come.
My favorite Lana Del Rey song is “Ride.” It’s enchanting and draws you in from that first mesmerizing hum. I also tend to fall in love with song bridges in general, and this bridge is a great one. (In case you don’t know what I mean, the “bridge” of the song is basically that section that stands out in contrast to the chorus and the verses). This one starts with her singing in her higher register (“I’m tired of feeling like I’m fucking crazy!”), and it feels like an honest admission sung with wild abandon. And I personally don’t think that you have to be fucking crazy to totally relate to the line, “I’m tired of feeling like I’m fucking crazy.”
Lana Del Rey portrays a strong yet vulnerable mixture of darkness, romance, misery, and glamour all at the same time. When she sings in a higher register, her voice sounds more like the tenor we are accustomed to with pop artists, but it’s that deep, lower register that she usually sits back into. And it’s that low voice of hers that often creates the mood that has become her signature. Early in her career, she felt she wasn’t being taken seriously enough, and that is part of the reason that she chose to sing in her lower register. The result is quite unique. With a vocal range that spans three-plus octaves, she can sing very low or very high.
Lana’s new single “Love” shows off some of that vocal range, and it is a romantic ode to young love, and it has a scent of hope and nostalgia in it:
It doesn’t matter if I’m not enough/For the future or the things to come/’Cause I’m young and in love/I’m young and in love/Don’t worry, baby.
As for the rest of the album, in a February interview with the BBC, Lana said, “I started out thinking that the whole record was gonna have a sort of a ’50s-’60s feeling, kind of some kind of Shangri-Las, early Joan Baez influences. But I don’t know, as the climate kept on getting more heated politically, I found lyrically everything was just directed towards that. So because of that, the sound just got really updated, and I felt like it was more wanting to talk to the younger side of the audience that I have. I guess it’s a little more socially aware. It’s kind of a global feeling.”
Hmm. So all that stuff I previously said about Lana not wanting to take any social or political stances? This new album may surprise us, after all.
With all of the fan excitement and social media hints from Lana about the upcoming album, there may be many surprises in store. Just this past weekend, there were social media exchanges between Lana and musical artist The Weeknd that hinted at a new possible collaboration. Previously, Lana featured on two The Weeknd songs, and the new tweets indicate another collaboration coming up. Fans are speculating this may mean that The Weeknd will feature on one of the songs in Lana’s upcoming album.
Whoever features or doesn’t feature on Lana Del Rey’s new album, sign me up. I adore her newest single “Love,” and I can’t wait to hear what she has to say next. Whether it’s happy or sad or somewhere in between, I’ll be there to buy her album when it releases. Now if only she’d tell us when that will be…..

(TMZ) Chris Cornell had several prescription drugs in his system when he hanged himself in a Detroit hotel room according to the toxicology report.
According to the report, obtained by TMZ, the singer had Naloxone (Narcan), Butalbital (sedative), Lorazepam (Ativan), Pseudoephedrine (decongestant) and barbiturates in his system at the time of death. It appears Chris had taken 4 (1 mg) Lorazepam tablets.
Vicky claims she was on the phone with Chris a half hour before his death when he began speaking in tones she hadn’t heard since he was addicted to Oxycontin 14 years ago. She was so alarmed by the slurring and tone she asked Chris’ bodyguard to break his hotel door down.
Cops observed fresh track marks on Chris’ arm. According to the tox report, he had 4 needle puncture wounds on his left arm, but it appears the marks were from EMTs administering Narcan to counteract an opiate OD.
Family sources tell us Vicky and others are angry the medical examiner “jumped to conclusions” Chris committed suicide. They believe he was so high on drugs he did not really form an intent to kill himself, he was out of his mind when he put the exercise belt around his neck.

Mila Petrov secured her victory rolls, at the front and side of her hair with bobby pins. A thick cloud of hair lacquer fills the air, to keep everything just as she likes it.The rest of her hair she left hanging around her shoulders, in loose waves. She examined her roots closely and winces at the mousy brown shade making its way through. She is hardly Marilyn Monroe and thanked God for it too. Mila is too smart to be caught up in the love affair women seem to have with Marilyn and her style. The craze seems to live on one year after her death in 1963. The blonde bimbo act doesn’t appeal to her. Mila is the opposite in every way to the American “siren” plastered all over the TV…

Playing a hoarder/former crack addict with bad teeth might seem less than glamorous, but Chaz Bono says it was just the role he was looking for.
“I like to do a lot of charter acting and off-beat stuff, and that’s not always easy to find,” the actor, 47, tells PEOPLE of his scene stealing new part in the indie thriller Dirty.
“It was just a great part, a really juicy moment and scene,” he adds. “So when I read something like that I become really motivated to get the part. And that’s the way it was for this, I really had to fight.”

Axl Rose even hates the cartoon version of Slash. The Guns N’ Roses frontman is suing the makers of Guitar Hero for $20m (£12.6m), claiming they “spun a web of lies and deception” by including an animated Slash in the video-game version of his band. Slash left the group in 1996.
According to his claim, Rose licensed Welcome to the Jungle to Guitar Hero III on the condition that any reference to the departed guitarist or his new band, Velvet Revolver, would be omitted. But in early versions of the game, a Slash-like character could be seen parading around the stage in the guitarist’s trademark top hat, sunglasses and nose piercing. When Rose discovered this, he claims he demanded the song be removed from the game; Activision allegedly told him the Slash character was just a trade-show PR stunt.

Deepika Padukone, Ileana D'Cruz and Tabu are signed opposite Rajinikanth in this Film.
Exclusive Kochadaiyaan Updates
In association with www.kochadaiyaan.tk
Exclusive Rana Updates
A biography of Rajinikanth will hit the market in superstar's style on 12.12.12. Publishers Penguin Books India said that 'Rajinikanth' by critic-producer Naman Ramachandaran will be the first and only definitive biography of one of India's biggest stars and the launch will commemorate his 62nd birthday on the unique date December 12, 2012.
"The book will comprehensively analyse his meteoric career in the movie industry from his debut performance to his forthcoming blockbuster 'Rana', releasing this year.
"With never before presented insights on his personal and political life, this book, for the first time analyses the unmatched charm and magic of Rajinikanth that bridges the unique boy-next-door, down to earth persona, with that of his larger than life superstar image," the publishers said in a statement.
The book will also contain rare pictures and anecdotes.
Well, here's more news that is bound to delight the fans of the superstar. Yes, that Rajini will be working on not just 'Rana' but also on another film titled 'Kochadaiyaan' is now an established fact. Work on the movie, the story and screenplay of which have been written by director K S Ravikumar, it seems has already started.
But doubts pertaining to the meaning of the title kept continuing to crop up until yesterday, when the director of the film, Soundarya, tweeted, "'Kochadaiyaan' is one of Lord Shiva's names.This is a prequel to 'Rana'. Its performance capture will be similar to (that of) 'Avatar'."
The clarification seems to have strengthened the belief that Rajinikanth has a special place for Lord Shiva in his heart. Apparently, two of the superstar's earlier films, 'Arunachalam' and 'Annamalai', that went on to become blockbusters too, had the names of Lord Shiva as their titles.
It is official! A surprise announcement about Superstar Rajinikanth’s next movie hit the media on Thursday.
The announcement confirmed that Superstar’s next release would be a Hi-Tech 3D film titled Kochadaiyaan. This is the first time that a 3D film with performance capturing technology is being produced in India.
And guess who is the lucky one getting a chance to direct Superstar? It is none other than his younger daughter Soundharya Ashwin.
After all the speculation surrounding the release of Rajinikanth’s flick Rana, the announcement of Kochadaiyaan has yet again created a stir and there is an air of excitement in the film industry.
K.S. Ravikumar, who was supposed to do Rana, will supervise the story, screenplay, dialogues and direction. The film, produced by Eros International and Media One Entertainment, will go on floors next month and will be released in August 2012.
While Rajini’s elder daughter Aishwarya is busy with her directorial debut 3, it looks like expectations are soaring sky-high with younger daughter Soundharya also in the limelight now — she has certainly hit a jackpot considering that she will be directing none other than Superstar himself.
While Rajinikanth’s fans were excited to see him in Rana and in some public appearances, they will have to wait now as doctors have advised Rajinikanth to take more rest. So Rajinikanth’s next film Rana will be delayed because of this.
Rajinikanth’s fans were happy because he had stated that he is fit and will soon resume for the shooting of Rana. However doctors opinion is otherwise. Therefore Rana which was about to arrive by the end of 2011 has been postponed.
Though Rajinikanth is eager to return to work, but he has to accept doctors restrictions because there are many action, costume and drama scenes in Rana which may exert extreme physical strain on him.
K.S. Ravikumar, the director of Rana completely agrees with Rajinikanth and said that he met Rajinikanth some days ago. He was told that doctors asked Rajinikanth to wait till he is completely fit and fine to shoot for Rana. He will have to do some heavy-duty stunts in the shooting such as flying, sword fighting and horse riding which can exert tremendous strain on him. So doctors have stopped him from starting the shooting immediately, K.S. Ravikumar added.


Alois Nashali shocking revelation about Diamond Platnumz and Ali Kiba
Updated: May 1, 2020
After being hired by concert promoters who presented the Canadian people with a concert from two of the most famous artists in Africa, Diamond Platnumz and Alikiba, Alois Nashali evaluates and lays down the differences between the two artists. Being a Tanzanian, Alois Nashali has lived for a long time in his life in the same country as these two artists. He had listened to their music even before other people came to know that it existed. He is thus in a much better position to evaluate and explain the differences between them.
Alois explains that Alikiba was among the first artists to shape Tanzanian music into the modern bongo sound that the country is currently sharing with the world. His early songs like Mac Muga were hit music releases which gave an identity to Tanzanian music. The artists currently have successfully managed to record more than 50 songs with most of these songs being considered hit songs which were awarded airplay for a long time by many music-playing stations in Tanzania and other neighboring countries like Kenya where people clearly understand Kiswahili language.
Diamond Platnumz is the other major artist who has attained significant achievements in his music careers. Many people argue that almost every song that goes by this artist is considered a hit song. Artists in Africa have thus been making significant effort to be featured in a song that has Diamond Platnumz in it since they are certain that the song will be a hit. Compared to Alikiba, diamond has attained far more popularity in Africa. His music has brought a lot of exposure and focus of the world to African music. He has successfully managed to make music with other artists like Neyo and Rick Ross among others in the western countries.
Having attended their concerts here in Canada, Alois argues that both artists have a clear talent and that they managed to entertain the Canadian people in a way that was much more than what was expected. Their concerts here in Canada were thus considered to be a success.
