Lana Del Rey // Video Interview at 2011 Q Awards

Considering all the press she's garnered, writing a novella about the strange arrival of Lana Del Rey on the music scene this year would be a simple task. Is she the product of clever producers/marketing people, or is she genuine? Does it matter either way? These are all questions most new artists won't ever have to face, and as you can tell by the video, they've certainly taken their toll. Stereogum certainly hit the nail on the head when they say she looked a bit nervous, but considering the position she's in, that's understandable.

The video for 'Video Games' might have propelled her to the level that she's at right now, but I think interviews like this where we actually get to see her personality will ultimately be more important for her.
