A singer-songwriter known for her cinematic sounds, Lana Del Rey never fails at amazing me. I am the only one of my friends and family who truly loves her and listens to her religiously. I have my reasons:

 

1. She is so vintage – it’s cool, trust me.

6. Her album “Born to Die,” was mostly about her days of “being lost in the wilderness” as she told GQ. She was an alcoholic before the age of 15. She has been sober since 2004, and is stronger than ever.
