Lana Del Rey's Biggest Flubs Of All Time

In May 2020, Lana Del Rey took to Instagram to vent about some of the criticisms that have been hurled at her throughout her decade-long career. The message included references to accusations of the singer "glamorizing abuse," clarification that she was "not not a feminist," and a suggestion that her darkness allowed other female artists to "stop putting on a happy face."
"I just want to say it's been a long 10 years of bulls**t reviews up until recently and I've learned a lot from them," Del Rey wrote. But the message ironically went on to spark more controversy, most likely because Del Rey's statement that other female artists "have had number ones with songs about being sexy, wearing no clothes, f**king, cheating, etc," with five of those six women she listed being women of color.
"Don't ever ever ever call me racist," Del Rey wrote on Instagram in response to criticism of the post (via BBC). "The singers I mentioned are my favourite singers so if you want to try and make a bone to pick out of that, like you always do be my guest ... It doesn't change the fact that I haven't had the same opportunity to express what I wanted to express without being completely decimated."
Still, the controversy did not stop Del Rey's next album, "Chemtrails Over The Country Club," from becoming her seventh Top 10 album in the United States and garnering widespread critical acclaim.
