Lana Del Rey found it challenging to select her preferred song from BFF Taylor Swift's latest album, The Tortured Poets Department while attending the 2024 Met Gala in New York City after a six-year absence.

During a red carpet interview, the "Blue Jeans" hitmaker was pressed to share her thoughts on Swift's new album.

Del Rey was asked about her "favorite jam" from the album during an interview with ET.

After pausing for a brief reflection, she mentioned, "It's the one uhh, 'Who's Afraid of Little Old Me,'" she expressed, struggling to recall the exact title and added, "Whatever that title was."

The singer, whose real name is Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, correctly named the title of her favorite Swift song on TTPD, but the significance seemed lost to her.

Del Rey made a bold statement by standing out at the gathering in a whimsical forest nymph-inspired ensemble. The unconventional attire, a custom beige gown with corset detailing crafted by Seán McGirr from the house of Alexander McQueen, intrigued attendees and social media.

Embracing the essence of the "Garden of Time" concept, the "Young and Beautiful" hitmaker wore an elegant gown with intricate brown branches gracefully cascading down the fabric.

She delicately clutched a vibrant red rose in one hand, adding a pop of color to the earthy tones of her attire, completing her ensemble with a touch of romanticism.

As Kardashian stood beside Del Rey for yet another red carpet interview, the reality star had to dodge several times to avoid the striking headpiece adorning the singer's head.
