She has one younger sister, Caroline Grant, and one brother, Charlie. Her paternal grandfather, Robert England Grant, Sr. was a Kidder, Peabody & Co. investment banker, a vice president for Plough, Inc and Textron, and venture capitalist. She has Scottish ancestry from both her mother and father. Grant grew up in Lake Placid, New York, and was raised Roman Catholic. She attended a Catholic elementary school and for one year, a high school where her mother taught. She began singing in her church choir when she was a child, where she was the cantor. At age fifteen, she was sent to Kent School by her parents to resolve a budding drinking problem. Her uncle, an admissions officer at the boarding school, secured her financial aid to attend. After graduating, Del Rey was accepted to the State University of New York at Geneseo, but she decided not to attend and instead spent a year living on Long Island with her aunt and uncle while working as a waitress. During this time, Del Rey 's uncle taught her how to play guitar, and she `` realized ( that she ) could probably write a million songs with those six chords. '' Shortly after, she began writing songs and performing in nightclubs around the city under various names such as `` Sparkle Jump Rope Queen '' and `` Lizzy Grant and the Phenomena. '' `` I was always singing, but did n't plan on pursuing it seriously '', Del Rey said. `` When I got to New York City when I was eighteen, I started playing in clubs in Brooklyn -- I have good friends and devoted fans on the underground scene, but we were playing for each other at that point -- and that was it. '' The following fall, at age nineteen, she enrolled at Fordham University where she majored in philosophy, with an emphasis on metaphysics. She has said she chose to study the subject because it `` bridged the gap between God and science... I was interested in God and how technology could bring us closer to finding out where we came from and why. '' According to Del Rey, she had trouble making friends in both boarding school and college. She lived in The Bronx while attending Fordham. Before graduating in 2008, she moved to North Bergen, New Jersey. She was also a Brooklyn resident for four years. In college, Del Rey did volunteer work at homeless youth and drug and alcohol outreach programs, as well as helping paint and rebuild houses on an Indian reservation in Utah. She would cite this trip as integral in her decision to become a songwriter : `` I remember exactly when I decided that I wanted to be a singer. I was in college, ( and ) we went to the Indian reservation. That day I realized that I had only two options : either making music or volunteering for a good cause. I chose the first option. If it ( had ) not ( worked ), I would ( have ) probably ( done ) social work in any small town. '' Career 2005 -- 2010 : career beginnings and Lana Del Ray Main articles : Sirens, Kill Kill, and Lana Del Ray I wanted to be part of a high - class scene of musicians. It was half - inspired because I did n't have many friends, and I was hoping that I would meet people and fall in love and start a community around me, the way they used to do in the ' 60s. -- Del Rey explaining why she went into the music industry. On April 25, 2005, a seven - track extended play was registered under Elizabeth Woolridge Grant with the United States Copyright Office. The application title was Rock Me Stable with another title Young Like Me also listed. A second extended play, titled From the End, was also recorded under Del Rey 's stage name at the time, May Jailer. Between 2005 and 2006, she recorded an acoustic album titled Sirens under the May Jailer project, which later leaked on the internet in mid-2012. At her first performance in 2006 for the Williamsburg Live Songwriting Competition, Del Rey met Van Wilson, an A&R representative for 5 Points Records, an independent label owned by David Nichtern. In 2007, while a senior at Fordham, Del Rey submitted a demo tape of acoustic tracks titled No Kung Fu to 5 Points Records, who subsequently offered her a recording contract for $10,000. Del Rey used the money to relocate to Manhattan Mobile Home Park, a trailer park in North Bergen, New Jersey, and subsequently began working with producer David Kahne, with whom she released a three - track EP titled Kill Kill in October 2008 as Lizzy Grant. She explained that `` David asked to work with me only a day after he got my demo. He is known as a producer with a lot of integrity and who had an interest in making music that was n't just pop. '' The album, however, was shelved, causing her to shift her focus : She began to work in community service. `` Homeless outreach, drug, and alcohol rehabilitation -- that 's been my life for the past five years '', she told Vogue UK in 2012. Her debut full - length album, titled Lana Del Ray, was released in January 2010. Her father, Robert Grant, helped with the marketing of the album, which was available for purchase on iTunes for a brief period before being withdrawn. David Kahne, who produced Grant and previous label owner David Nichtern have both stated that Grant bought the rights back from her label, 5 Points, as she wanted it out of circulation to `` stifle future opportunities to distribute it -- an echo of rumors that the action was part of a calculated strategy. Del Rey met her current managers, Ben Mawson and Ed Millett, three months after Lana Del Ray and they helped her to get out of her contract with 5 Points Records, where, in her opinion, `` nothing was happening. '' Shortly after, she moved to London, and moved in with Mawson `` for a few years. '' When choosing her stage name, she said : `` I wanted a name I could shape the music towards. I was going to Miami quite a lot at the time, speaking a lot of Spanish with my friends from Cuba -- Lana Del Rey reminded us of the glamour of the seaside. It sounded gorgeous coming off the tip of the tongue. '' She has said her lawyers and managers made up the name Lana Del Rey and persuaded her to adopt it. On September 1, 2010, Del Rey was featured by Mando Diao in their MTV Unplugged concert at Union Film - Studios in Berlin. 2011 -- 2013 : Born to Die and Paradise Main articles : Born to Die and Paradise Del Rey performing at the Bowery Ballroom in December 2011. After uploading them to her YouTube channel in 2011, Del Rey 's videos for the songs `` Video Games '' and `` Blue Jeans '' became viral internet sensations, and she was signed by Stranger Records to release `` Video Games '' as her debut single. She told The Observer, `` I just put that song online a few months ago because it was my favorite. To be honest, it was n't going to be the single but people have really responded to it. '' The song earned her a Q award for `` Next Big Thing '' in October 2011 and an Ivor Novello for `` Best Contemporary Song '' in 2012. The same month, she signed a joint deal with Interscope Records and Polydor to work on her second studio album Born to Die. Del Rey built anticipation to the album by doing a number of live appearances, such as promotional concerts at the Bowery Ballroom and at the Chateau Marmont, and with performances at television shows such as De Wereld Draait Door, and Later... with Jools Holland. Del Rey also performed two songs from the album on Saturday Night Live on January 14, 2012 and received a negative response from critics and the general public. Del Rey 's performance was defended by the evening program 's guest host, actor Daniel Radcliffe, despite not having seen her performance. She had earlier defended her spot on the program, saying : `` I 'm a good musician (... ) I have been singing for a long time, and I think that ( SNL creator ) Lorne Michaels knows that (... ) it 's not a fluke decision. '' The following week on SNL, Kristen Wiig impersonated Del Rey where she humorously defended herself during Weekend Update.

Contrary to Del Rey 's press statement, her previous record label and producer David Kahne have both stated that she bought the rights to the album when she and the label parted company, due to the offer of a new deal, in April 2010. Born to Die sold 3.4 million copies in 2012, making it the fifth - best - selling album of 2012. In the United States, Born to Die charted on the Billboard 200 album chart well into 2012, lingering at number 76, after 36 weeks on the chart.

The music video for `` Ride '' was premiered at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica, California on October 10, 2012. Some critics panned the video as pro-prostitution and antifeminist, the latter being a word attributed to Del Rey 's work since `` Video Games ''. Del Rey 's Paradise Edition of Born to Die was set to be released on November 12. With the release of her third EP, Paradise, Del Rey spawned her second top 10 album in the United States, debuting at number 10 on the Billboard 200 with 67,000 copies sold in its first week.

Del Rey 's musical sound has been dubbed `` Hollywood sadcore '' by music critics. Her music has been repeatedly noted for its cinematic sound and its references to various aspects of pop culture, particularly that of 1950s and 1960s Americana. Del Rey elaborated on this in an interview with Artistdirect, saying `` I was n't even born in the ' 50s but I feel like I was there. '' Associated with several styles, Del Rey 's music has been tagged broadly as dream pop or baroque pop linked to various forms of rock, indie music, and trip hop, and often touching on styles such as hip hop, trap music, and psychedelic rock on particular releases. Of Born to Die, indie music journal Drowned in Sound wrote, `` She likes that whole hip hop thing though, has this whole swagger thing going that not many girls like her got '', adding that it sounded like a poppier Bond soundtrack. In `` National Anthem '', `` Off to the Races, '' and `` Diet Mountain Dew '', Del Rey employs this alternative rapping technique. Del Rey 's subsequent releases would introduce variant styles, particularly Ultraviolence, which employed a guitar - based sound akin to psychedelic and desert rock. Kenneth Partridge of Billboard noted this shift in style, writing : `` She sings about drugs, cars, money, and the bad boys she 's always falling for, and while there remains a sepia - toned mid-century flavor to many of these songs, ( Del Rey ) is no longer fronting like a thugged - out Bette Davis. '' Upon the release of Honeymoon, one reviewer characterized Del Rey 's body of work as being `` about music as a time warp, with her languorous croons over molasses - like arrangements meant to make clock hands seem to move so slowly that it feels possible, at times, they might go backwards. '' Del Rey has been described as a `` self - styled gangsta Nancy Sinatra '' and `` Lolita lost in the hood. '' Prior to coming to prominence under the stage name Lana Del Rey, she performed under the names Lizzy Grant, Lana Rey Del Mar, Sparkle Jump Rope Queen, and May Jailer. Under the stage name Lizzy Grant, she referred to her music as `` Hawaiian glam metal '', while the work of her May Jailer project was acoustic. Influences Del Rey cites a wide array of musical artists as influences, including numerous performers from the mid-twentieth century, including Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Cat Power, Fiona Apple, Hope Sandoval, Father John Misty, Antony and the Johnsons, Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Julie London, Bobby Vinton, The Crystals, Miles Davis, The Shangri - Las, Janis Joplin, Axl Rose, The Eagles, Lou Reed, Bob Seger, and Bruce Springsteen. `` ( I really ) just like the masters of every genre '', she told BBC radio presenter Jo Whiley. Her favorite artists include Bob Dylan, Frank Sinatra, Jeff Buckley, Joan Baez, Leonard Cohen, and Eminem. She covered Cohen 's `` Chelsea Hotel # 2 '' in 2013. Janis Joplin 's live version of `` Summertime '' from the Cheap Thrills album is one of Del Rey 's favorite songs. Del Rey has also cited `` Time of the Season '' by The Zombies and `` Hotel California '' by The Eagles as favorites and inspirations. Her favorite films, The Godfather, The Godfather Part II, and American Beauty have also inspired her musical style. Inspired by poetry, Del Rey cites Walt Whitman and Allen Ginsberg as instrumental to her songwriting ; specifically, she named Leaves of Grass by Whitman and `` Howl '' by Ginsberg. Her song, `` Body Electric '' from her third EP, Paradise, alludes to Whitman in the lyric, `` Whitman is my daddy ''. The song 's chorus of `` I sing the body electric '' is a direct reference to Whitman 's poem `` I Sing The Body Electric ''. She recited Whitman 's poem `` Song of Myself '' for the French fashion magazine, L'Officiel Paris. Del Rey has also cited the surrealist film directors David Lynch and Federico Fellini and the surrealist painters Mark Ryden and Pablo Picasso as influences. Voice and timbre Del Rey possesses an expansive contralto vocal range, which spans three - plus octaves and has been described as captivating and highly emotive, ranging from high notes in a girlish timbre to jazzy ornaments in her lower gesture with great ease. Following the release of Ultraviolence, which was recorded live in single takes and lacking Pro Tools vocal editing, critics fell into favor with Del Rey 's vocal ability, praising her large range, increased vocal confidence, and uniquely emotive delivery. When recording in the studio Del Rey is known for vocal multi-layering, which, as it has been noted, is difficult for her to replicate within a live setting, especially with the lack of backing singers to fill out the original vocal style. Stage fright has also been noted as a major contribution to Del Rey 's struggles with live performances. However, journalists noted in 2014 that her live performances had increased exponentially in confidence. Billboard deemed the Coachella debut of `` West Coast '' to be a `` star - making performance '' and lauded the singer 's vocal abilities. Contemporary music critics have called her voice `` smoky '', `` gravelly '', and reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe. Upon the 2015 release of Honeymoon, her voice was compared by Los Angeles Times critic Mikael Wood to those of Julee Cruise and Eartha Kitt. Del Rey started the use of her lower vocals on the tracks from Born to Die, claiming that `` people were n't taking me very seriously, so I lowered my voice, believing that it would help me stand out. Now I sing quite low... well, for a female anyway ''. `` I sing low now, but my voice used to be a lot higher. Because of the way I look, I needed something to ground the entire project. Otherwise I think people would assume I was some airhead singer. Well, I do n't think... I know. I 've sung one way, and sung another, and I 've seen what people are drawn to '', she said on the topic. Live performances Critics have noted Del Rey for her typically simple, but authentic live performances. A September 2017 concert review published in The New York Times noted : `` For more than an hour, Ms. Del Rey was eerily casual, singing and smiling with the ease of someone performing at singer - songwriter night at the local coffee shop. '' Another review by Roy Train published in The Hollywood Reporter in 2014 noted `` a distance in her bonhomie, obvious even from my perch at the opposite end of the stage high above the fray, the chill still palpable. '' Other ventures Del Rey at the Paris Motor Show endorsing the Jaguar F - Type in 2012. In 2010, Del Rey acted in a short film called Poolside, which she made with several friends on a reported budget of $400. On January 4, 2012, it was reported she had signed a deal with Next Model Management agency.

Adrian Hallmark, Jaguar 's global brand director, explained their choice, saying Del Rey had `` a unique blend of authenticity and modernity ''.

The song serves as the title track to a 13 - minute promotional short film for the Jaguar F - Type, called Desire. The film, directed by Adam Smith, was produced by Ridley Scott and stars Damian Lewis. In an interview for L'Officiel 's first American edition in early 2018, when asked about Del Rey 's interest in making a movie she responded that she had been approached to write a Broadway musical and had recently begun work on it. When asked how long it would be until completion of the work, Del Rey coyly replied, `` I may finish in two or three years. '' Public image Prior to the release of her debut major label album Born to Die in 2012, Del Rey was the subject of several articles discussing her image and career trajectory. One article by Paul Harris published by The Guardian just a week before the album 's release noted the differences between Del Rey 's perceived persona in 2008, when she performed as Lizzy Grant, and in the present, as Lana Del Rey. Harris wrote : The internet has allowed figures like ( Del Rey ) to come rapidly to the fore of the cultural landscape, whether or not their emergence is planned by a record executive or happens spontaneously from someone 's bedroom. It has speeded up the fame cycle. It is worth noting that the huge backlash to Del Rey is happening before her first album has even been released. This reveals a cultural obsession with the `` authenticity '' that fans, artists and corporations all prize above all else. Tony Simon, a producer who had worked with Del Rey in 2009, defended her against the public claims of inauthenticity and allegations that she was a product of her record label : `` To be clear, all the detractors saying she 's some made - up - by - the - machine pop star are full of shit. While it 's impossible to keep the businesses ' hands out the pop when creating a pop star, the roots of where this all comes from are firmly inside of Lizzy Grant. '' Del Rey would later respond to this in a 2017 interview, stating : `` I did n't edit myself ( on Born to Die ) when I could have, because a lot of it 's just the way it was. I mean, because I 've changed a lot and a lot of those songs, it 's not that I do n't relate but... A lot of it too is I was just kinda nervous. I came off sort of nervously, and there was just a lot of dualities, a lot of juxtapositions going on that maybe just felt like something was a little off. Maybe the thing that was off was that I needed a little more time or something, and also my path was just so windy just to get to having a first record. I feel like I had to figure it out all by myself. Every move was just guesswork. '' Having been labeled as antifeminist multiple times in the past, Del Rey dismissed feminism in June 2014, telling The Fader : `` For me, the issue of feminism is just not an interesting concept. I 'm more interested in, you know, SpaceX and Tesla, what 's going to happen with our intergalactic possibilities. Whenever people bring up feminism, I 'm like, God. I 'm just not really that interested. '' She also defended herself against the accusations of antifeminism, saying `` For me, a true feminist is someone who is a woman who does exactly what she wants. If my choice is to, I do n't know, be with a lot of men, or if I enjoy a really physical relationship, I do n't think that 's necessarily being anti-feminist. For me the argument of feminism never really should have come into the picture. Because I do n't know too much about the history of feminism, and so I 'm not really a relevant person to bring into the conversation. Everything I was writing was so autobiographical, it could really only be a personal analysis. '' In February 2017, Del Rey implied she had plans to take part in a magic binding ritual against Donald Trump on or about February 24, March 26, April 24, May 23, which she again confirmed in July 2017. Personal Life Del Rey stated that she suffered from alcoholism at a young age, but has been sober since 2004. In September 2012, she told GQ : I was a big drinker at the time. I would drink every day. I would drink alone. I thought the whole concept was so fucking cool. A great deal of what I wrote on Born to Die is about these wilderness years. When I write about the thing that I 've lost I feel like I 'm writing about alcohol because that was the first love of my life. My parents were worried, I was worried. I knew it was a problem when I liked it more than I liked doing anything else. I was like, ' I 'm fucked. I am totally fucked '. Like, at first it 's fine and you think you have a dark side -- it 's exciting -- and then you realise the dark side wins every time if you decide to indulge in it. It 's also a completely different way of living when you know that... a different species of person. It was the worst thing that ever happened to me. She was in a relationship with Kassidy member Barrie - James O'Neill from August 2011 until June 2014. Previously, she was in a relationship with alternative rock and anti-folk musician Steven Mertens, who produced her debut album, Lana Del Ray, before it was re-recorded by David Kahne. Del Rey moved to a home near Hancock Park in Los Angeles in June 2014 ( after living in New York City and London, England in the previous years ), and she resided there with her siblings, Caroline and Charlie, for some time. She relocated to a secluded beach - front home in Malibu, California, in June 2015, after dealing with trespassers at her former house. She also purchased two adjacent mansions ( in addition to her Malibu home ) in Studio City, Los Angeles in September 2016. Del Rey 's left hand is tattooed with the letter `` M '', referencing her grandmother, Madeleine, and the word `` paradise ''. Her right hand is tattooed with the phrase `` trust no one ''. Del Rey is Roman Catholic.
