Lana Del Rey
TEXT UPDATED FOR THE 2024 GRAMMYS!
With her latest album,
Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd
, Lana Del Rey has again proven herself as one of the most crucial and original female musicians of the 21st century. So let this celebrity biography reveal the full story of
Elizabeth Woolridge Grant
, largely told in Lana's own words using
hundreds of interviews and public statements
.We connect the dots between Del Rey's humble
Catholic school
beginnings, her teenage troubles with
alcoholism
, and her earliest unknown recordings as
May Jailer/Lizzy Grant
. We explore how the ruthless streets of
New York Cit
y and the noir of
Los Angeles
struck a chord of nostalgic romance in Lana's creative mind, seeking retro Hollywood glamour at whatever cost, transforming into the multi-platinum
"gangster Nancy Sinatra"
superstar we love today. And we illustrate how the accusations of
toxic femininity
and a fabricated past could never compromise her vision; instead, the opposition provided even stronger material for her unique artistic dedication, selling millions of records across the globe.More importantly, this book delves deep into her music, where Lana Del Rey has always felt the most comfortable sharing personal details. We document her
hundreds of unreleased songs
, her biggest hits (such as the viral sensation
Video Games
), her soundtrack contributions (
The Great Gatsby
,
Maleficent
,
Big Eyes
), and her collaboration work with
The Weeknd, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande
, and
Stevie Nicks
. Furthermore, we passionately analyse each of her eight studio albums, including the critically acclaimed
Born to Die
,
Ultraviolence
,
Honeymoon
,
orman F**king Rockwell!, Chemtrails Over the Country Club,
and
Blue Banisters
. In doing so, we present a commercially successful career that hides within the darker underbelly of the pop world, just like her cult following prefers it.For
dedicated fans only
, here is everything there is to know about the real Lana Del Rey.
