And she uses them for potential shock value - take the cover art for her breakout single, " Blue Jeans" (see below). In the time that the video has been locked away, Del Rey has made themes of sexual violence and regressive gender dynamics a huge part of her music. But its existence doesn't change anything about Del Rey's problematic sexual politics: They've always been this shocking and destructive. They're from at least two of Manson's videos: " No Reflection" and " Slo-Mo-Tion." The film has been locked away for a couple of years because of how disturbing it is, and it was, perhaps, never intended for release. Eli’s a really good friend of mine and I consider this to be a grand mistake on the person who put it with my videos and I wasn’t very pleased with that and I’m pretty sure the other two people involved were less pleased than I was because I really had nothing to do with it.Released by Sturmgruppe, the NSFW video (since removed) contains a handful of unsettling clips, from a woman held screaming underwater to a masked figure looming on top of a building with an AK-47. And obviously you can make Lana Del Rape jokes that have been in headlines. I’m a person that would beat somebody’s a** if they raped somebody that I know. I don’t think either of us were ever intending for that to be seen, it was more of a camera test. I would not make a video of that nature, nor would Eli. And it really strongly stands out of place, it doesn’t really make sense. “But the people put it together with my other clips. Eli and I originally had intentions of making a video with her, but that is not the intention that is represented in that film clip because that is not what I filmed, not for my video. I just left, I was tired, I was not willing to make that part of the video. Although I still respect her, I’m friends with her. “Eli and I wanted to do a music video with (Lana) but she was being such a problem. The editor of the company that put it out was somebody who’s edited my videos, that video was something that was done with a camera that Eli, who’s my friend, and I both wanted to test out, so I let him test it out…what they filmed was put in context seemingly as if it were a Marilyn Manson video, and that was in no way the intention. Manson tells NME.com, “It wasn’t a Marilyn Manson video.
