“Is this demure?” captioned Lola alongside her post, playing on a phrase that recently went viral on the internet. The standout photo among the other three showed Lola lounging around topless.

While she strategically covered up her bosom with her towel, she left her tanned back on display. This image, in particular, caused a wave of commentary from social media users.

Taking to the comment section of the Instagram post, some felt that Lola’s topless picture was a little too out of bounds for their taste.

Responding directly to the question Lola had posed in her caption, a netizen wrote“Considering that Demure means modesty, then no this is very much not modest nor demure.”

Echoing the sentiment, another added“Demure I don’t believe is the word- maybe I don’t get it. I say why because you have a cute girl with her song. Why that pic? Maybe I’m too [old-fashioned] – sorry.”

In the same way that Kelly showed support for her daughter’s post, the talk show host and Lola’s dad, Mark, have also supported the young lady with her musical endeavors.

When Lola put out her debut single, “Paranoia Silverlining,” she spoke about how her parents showered her with praise, despite not knowing much about the music industry.

“They really don’t know what they’re talking about […] when it comes to music. So it’s very sweet to see them do their posts here and there and their little videos. They made a music video yesterday in the pool!” divulged Lola in a past interview from 2022.

According to Lola, Mark and Kelly’s adoration of her song extends beyond them being doting and supportive parents, as they are known for being very honest if they don’t like something.

“My parents are the last people to sugarcoat anything when it comes to my singing […] So when I saw they had a good reaction and liked it, I felt reassured,” said Lola.

Music has long been a passion of Lola’s, as she shared in the same interview, how she started making music at 14 years old. However, she expressed, “I […] never really had anything that I thought was legitimate enough to write about or something that resonated with me.”

It was after feeling this way that Lola came up with the idea for “Paranoia Silverlining”—a song that rethinks the existence of one’s biggest fears and is based on one accepting that, whether they like it or not, everyone at some point experiences paranoia.

“It was just a good theme for what was going on in my life at the moment and I really liked the vibe and the sound of everything. I thought, ‘If I don’t do this now, I don’t know if I ever will,’ because I can second guess myself a lot,” disclosed Lola about the song.

Fresh off the success of “Paranoia Silverlining,” Lola released her second single, “Divine Timing,” in 2023. Speaking to another media outlet about how the song came to be, Lola shared, “The inspiration behind ‘Divine Timing’ is how the universe is looking out for you… maybe not at the exact time or moment that you want, which I think is relatable in relationships.”

The young musician, who described her music as a mix of soulful melodies, R&B, and alternative, also discussed what awaits in store for her future in terms of her music career.

On this, Lola mentioned, “I think next is going to be an EP for sure and then hopefully an album after that. Live performing is something I wanna do 100 percent.”

In the same interview, Lola also spoke about her parents and the relationship she shares with them, expressing what it’s been like to grow up in the eyes of the public as a result of their fame.

“They never really cross a line. We have a very respectful relationship, so there’s never been a real moment where I’m like, ‘Oh my god, why would you share that?'” Lola revealed.

Kelly started by outlining her upper lip just outside its natural shape using a dark brown liner stick. She then traced this line with a Lip Pencil and filled in her bottom lip with the same shade.

The finishing touch was a matte nude lipstick topped with a glossy lip balm. “That’s it. That’s how you go from flat upper lip to full upper lip,” Kelly said with a smile as she completed her look.

Her caption, “No, I didn’t get lip fillers. This is the lip trick you monsters,” added another humorous spin to the tutorial. Kelly’s fun and straightforward approach offered a great solution for those looking to achieve a fuller lip look naturally.
