Looks like the creeps aren't the only thing Marilyn Manson gave new best pal Lana Del Rey—she's also acquired his morbid fascination with John F. Kennedy and Jackie O. In a new interview with 16bars.tv, rapper A$AP Rocky revealed that he'll be playing JFK to Del Rey's Onassis in the upcoming music video for Born To Die's latest single, "National Anthem."

"[It's] some swag shit," says Rocky. "I play JFK, she plays Jackie O. It's some cool trippy shit, some real 2015 shit. People are gonna get it in like three years, and that's the whole purpose of it."
Awesome. Can't wait. How many years will take for us to care?
Rocky, who's still putting the finishing touches on his debut album, also reveals that "Ridin'" (his recent collaboration with Del Rey) will be appearing on his album rather than the Kickdrums mixtape, as originally planned. Are you devastated? I didn't think so.
You know, for a hot minute there, Lana Del Rey was actually starting to become slightly less annoying. We all liked "Ridin'" and her guest spot on Bobby Womack's "Dayglo Reflection" was pretty great… hell, I think we're all fans of "Blue Jeans," right? That said, I think another pompous, pretentious, visually overblown video (see above) could pull the carpet of favor right out from under her. Just saying.
How do you guys feel about A$AP Rocky and Lana Del Rey channeling John and Jackie? Any thoughts on "National Anthem"? (It's okay.) Let us know in the comments section below.
