Lana Del Rey Breaks Silence Post Grammy Snub, Debunking Online Speculation: 'Pure Funniness, Laughter'

Lana Del Rey did not bring any accolades home from the 2024 Grammy Awards, but it seems like she could not care any less because she had a marvelous time.

"I literally just loved being there. I love to see everyone, get the tea, and hang out, get dressed up," the "Born to Die" singer wrote in an Instagram post.

"I literally did not feel 1 ounce of negative emotion at any point in that award ceremony. It was pure funniness and laughter."

This was the singer's response to netizens who have been clamoring online, arguing that Del Rey was snubbed by the Recording Academy and was "dragged' around by Taylor Swift around the Grammys.

Lana Del Rey Poses With a Gun

The post comes a few hours after Del Rey shared a picture of herself posing with a gun in hand on Instagram.

According to reports, the "Say Yes to Heaven" singer was wearing a white dress with puffed sleeves with her hair in a messy bun as she took a mirror selfie.

Netizens could not help but chuckle at the picture and note that it was her way of responding to the Recording Academy for snubbing her once again.

Del Rey was nominated a total of 11 times at the Grammys, including Album of the Year for "Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd" and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her collab song with Jon Batiste "Candy Necklace," but is yet to bring home a golden gramophone.

Taylor Swift 'Dragged' Lana Del Rey Around?

Other netizens pointed out that Del Rey was extra annoyed and sad during the Grammys because she was "dragged" around by her pal Taylor Swift.

The "Anti-Hero" singer brought Del Rey onstage with her to accept her Album of the Year Award for "Midnights."

The "A&W" singer was a co-writer and collaborator on the album for the song "Snow on the Beach."

The singer's fans defended Del Rey from the haters who claimed that she did not enjoy being with Swift at the Grammys, and hated being brought onstage.

"It was so obvious she enjoyed it but her stans always try to make her look like this sad victim of award shows. she knows her worth and talent."

"Now everyone can stop with the anti-Taylor theories."

"She knows she doesn't need a Grammy to be a legend," another added.
