Lana Del Rey, Meet Your Boyfriend

Is the title of a fine essay on Lana Del Rey by Professor Nick Mount.

"Nobody asks if Madonna really was a virgin, if Lady Gaga really was born that way. But Lana Del Rey got branded from the start as indie, and since everybody knows indie music is never fake, she confused us.
