Lana Del Rey: Singer's Fame Bubble Set Ablaze in Taiwanese CGI News Story

Filed under: News, Twisted Tales

YouTube

Here at Spinner, we feel like we've done a pretty good job of documenting the whole Lana Del Rey debacle (even asking, can artifice survive in the age of Adele?). But we've been one-upped by Taiwan's Next Media Animation studio.

No amount of jazzy alliteration or hilarious hyperbole can compare to their kooky CGI Lizzie Grant news story.

Yes, watch Lana Del Rey's fame-bubble burst into a flames as the singer plunges back to earth complete with wacky sound effects. Follow our poor little indie star as she morphs -- complete with magical chimes and smoke! -- into a "gangsta Nancy Sinatra" on the 'SNL' stage as music industry suits snooze (check out those ZZZZZs!) in their plush studio seats. There's more flames, obviously, as the video continues and we're left with one final insightful subtitle: "Bigger and Bigger... when will it finally explode?"
