Lana Del Rey hits back at critics while dissing Ariana Grande, Beyoncé
May 21, 2020
Lana Del Rey is just asking questions!
In a lengthy Instagram post on Thursday, the singer slammed "Doja Cat, Ariana [Grande], Camila [Cabello], Cardi B, Kehlani, and Nicki Minaj, and Beyoncé" for having "number ones with songs about being sexy, wearing no clothes, f--king, cheating, etc." Wrote Del Rey, "can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect … without being crucified or saying that I'm glamorizing abuse?"
The singer additionally emphasized that, "in reality I'm just a glamorous person singing about the realities of what we are all now seeing are very prevalent emotionally abusive relationships all over the world."
