Post Description

Elizabeth Woolridge Grant (born June 21, 1986), better known by her stage name Lana Del Rey, is an American singer-songwriter. Del Rey initially began performing in clubs in New York City at age 18 and signed her first recording contract when she was 20 years old with 5 Points Records, releasing her first digital album Lana Del Ray a.k.a. Lizzy Grant in January 2010. Del Rey bought herself out of the contract with 5 Points Records in April 2010 and signed a joint contract with Interscope, Polydor, and Stranger Records in October 2011. Releasing her debut single "Video Games" in June 2011, a music video created by Del Rey for the song was posted on YouTube for it in August 2011. After the song became a viral internet hit with over 20 million views, her second studio album, Born to Die, was released in January 2012. The album sold over 2.8 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of 2012. Charting across Europe, the album spawned numerous top ten hits, including "Blue Jeans", "National Anthem", "Born to Die", and "Summertime Sadness". Her third EP, Paradise, is slated for a 2012 release as a solitary album and part of a two-box collection with the deluxe edition of Born to Die. To date, her discography includes two full-length studio albums, three EPs, six singles, and eight music videos. Her songs and music videos have won and been nominated for various awards. As an artist, she has won the Q Award for "Best New Thing", a BRIT Award for "International Breakthrough Act", and a GQ Award for "Woman of the Year".
Del Rey's music has been noted for its cinematic sound and its references to various aspects of pop culture, particularly that of the 1950s and '60s Americana. The singer has described herself as a "self-styled gangsta Nancy Sinatra". Before signing to a major record label, Del Rey provided sole production of her music videos. Musically, she draws influence from what she deems to be the masters of each genre, including Elvis, Janis Joplin, Eminem, and Britney Spears. Other forms of media have inspired her artistry, such as poetry and film noir. Signed to NEXT Model Management, Del Rey has endorsed clothing line H&M, serving as the model for their Fall and Winter 2012 collection. In 2012, Del Rey became the face of the Jaguar F-Type luxury automobile.
