On her state of mind: "Well, I feel f**king crazy. But I don't think I am. People make me feel crazy." She blames her much-publicized "I wish I were dead" quotes
on leading questions, but adds, "I find that most people I meet figure I
kind of want to kill myself anyway. So, it comes up every time."
On how she wants people to hear lyrics like "he hurt me and it felt like true love": "I
just don't want them to hear it at all. I'm very selfish. I
make everything for me, kind of. I mean, every little thing, down to
the guitar and the drums. It's just for me… I don't want them to hear it
and think about it. It's none of their business!"
On her Saturday Night Live performance:
"It wasn't dynamic, but it was true to form," she says, though former
Interscope Records head Jimmy Iovine reveals that he worked with her
afterwards on the use of in-ear monitors. In any case, Del Rey says
music-biz friends pulled away from her post-SNL: "Everyone I
knew suddenly wasn't so sure about me," she says. "They were like,
'Maybe I don't want to be associated with her – not a great
reputation.'"
