I can’t stop thinking about Alex building a snowman. Please tell me they used a carrot for its nose.

Careful, it’s statements like these that reignite the “Alex is secretly seeing Taylor” hysteria lol

// haha they definitely had one hat each, I’m sure I remember her posting a picture of them both once back in the day. Little things like facts have never gotten in the way of delusions before though so I wouldn’t be surprised if people kept bringing it up lol

And this

I don't know about you guys, but it's fucking worrying. Like, she's crying in this video and the fact that she said that they wrote belladonna of sadness on a bed and then added that she was a teenage girl. It's easy to make a conclusion about what she meant.

Regarding Alexandra Savior and Alex Turner issue. Is a very fucked up situation if you considerer that in the best of cases there was “just” a huge power imbalance between a teenage girl (yes, you don’t stop being teenage just because you turn 18) that is away from home, alone in a city where she didn’t knew anyone, trying to be a singer and make herself a place in the music industry and a grown up man with money, influence and power in music industry.

But what is going around in my mind is how Alex Turner has a huge cover in the industry. Like, you don’t see articles messing up with his private life. He went on a break up with Taylor in the middle of cheating allegations based on his new girlfriend's social media post and it seems like that didn’t bring the attention from journalists and media. I think the management of Arctic monkeys does a very good job with the press. Even now, Alexandra Savior drops this bomb and there is no cover from the press. So yes, the power imbalance is huge, was huge then and is huge now. I hope am fans show respect to Alexandra, her situation is very complicated and must be very hard for her.

But was it really his job? His job was to share composition duties with her, and the production part alongside James. Realistically Alex was under no obligation to carry Alexandra under his wings, but still I don't believe for a single moment that he treated her badly. They wrote beautiful songs, he gave her one of his guitars, the note she wrote thanking him mentions a nice, friendly atmosphere while they worked together. Maybe Alexandra expected much more from Alex and her disappointment - and all that happened to her career - never really left her. But in retrospect, even if Alex tried his best to promote her and take her to Domino or something, there's no way of knowing it would work out. In the end, resenting him would happen anyway if she flopped as his protegee. People are blaming Alex based purely on suppositions, and how is that fair?

We were discussing the financial and business side of it. Their relationship is whole other discussion and based on Alexandra’s own words and actions, it’s concerning //

I'm not the anon that said the first part here, but I agree w/ them. And to respond to what the mods had to say, when it comes down to it, Alexandra hasn't really described anything about their "relationship". All she has said is that they made an album on a bed and that she was a teenager. That statement at face value really doesn't mean anything without context and further explanation. I support women, but right now there's literally nothing substantial for me to support her against in regards to Alex. And she has deleted the video now as well. I will say that, I can see evidence that Alex was controlling about the music during the making of her album, so I agree that she has a right to be upset about that. But the whole "relationship" thing that everyone is going on about is kind of ridiculous when we have little to no information on that.

Yeah we’re not saying this is worse than it is but writing an album on a bed in this context is problematic on its own. That’s all.

Just starting out in music? She’s been at it for 15 years and never really put in the effort. One album after all that time, no follow-up, no real promo, no sharing unreleased tracks, not even covers to build an audience. She never gave herself another chance, people only know her as Alex’s girlfriend, not as an artist in her own right, ask French people if they know her and what they think about her. Meanwhile, there are musicians out there grinding every day, pouring themselves into their craft, hustling nonstop, being meticulous and serious about their work. They deserve recognition so much more, because they’re not sitting around waiting for rainbows and sunshine to magically make them a star. And then to compare herself to Alex musically? She’s not even in the same conversation. Anyway good luck, Verlo, with this “new thing" I don't wish her any bad luck, of course, but the years go by without her doing anything.

Alex Turner & Miles Kane c. 2015

chris_bloodfilms Met my hero on a train. This story is long so scroll if you cba reading. It’s 2005, a band explodes on MySpace. They’re dressed like you and their lyrics are a mirror to your life. Bleeding heck, who the fuck are the Arctic Monkeys? After 19 years on repeat it’s now 2024. Myself and @/conor_bloodfilms are travelling back from Paris. We arrive at Gare Du Nord and Duffy stops in his tracks. He whispers to me “I think that’s Alex Turner.” “F**k off!” I immediately reply. I gaze over at a guy wearing a leather jacket with long brown hair, his face adorned with aviators. We should probably stop staring as it’s getting weird, sexually and aggressively weird. Turns out it is bloody Alex Turner, the man who’s provided the soundtrack to my life! He strolls past and disappears into the Parisian platform crowd. A missed opportunity. We board our train back to London. We look to our left and there’s Alex. Sitting in his seat accompanied by a notepad. He’s probably writing the next Arctic Monkeys hit “Two gawping pricks on a train”. We really need to stop staring. I tell Duffers I’m going in, he stops me. Reminds me that I’m a fully functioning adult and not to create a scene. Christ, he’s right! I feel like I’m 15 years old again, someone get me a Strongbow and whack Dancing Shoes on, kin hell lad! Eventually myself and Con engage, it’s a surreal experience. Alex is polite and returns conversation in a soft friendly manner. The whole situation is just bloody lovely. I awkwardly ask if I can take his portrait, fully aware that it could result in an awkward exchange and destroy this wonderful moment. He smiles and obliges, he’s effortlessly cool, asks for direction and I take a few snaps. We disembark the train, I felt quite emotional and that’s embarrassing to admit. Maybe it was the jet lag, the caffeine and croissant overload? Or maybe it was just the rekindling of my youth. This all might sound trivial, however, for me these portraits are deeply personal serving a reminder that life is a series of fortunate events and when fully appreciated can conjure up some pretty awesome memories.

why Alex is always wearing that cap/// milex shippers are convinced this is a kind of secret message Alex is sending either to miles or to the world out there. The Larry sanders tv show is satire that mixes facts with fiction. Milex believers think Louise is a beard and Alex is wearing this cap as a way to say this is a fake PR relationship and his real love is Miles 🙊💘 make of that what you will.

yes, we’ve heard their theory. We do not agree
