Lana Del Rey has just addressed one controversy before finding herself in another.
The “Born to Die” singer attended a protest decrying police brutality after the death of George Floyd, and shared photos on social media — including one that featured looters in action.
However, the faces of the people pictured weren’t obscured.
That caught the attention of two fellow singers, Kehlani and Tinashe, who each took Del Rey to task.
“@LanaDelRey please remove your Instagram post it’s dangerous as f**k ad a very poor choice of moments to post,” wrote Kehlani. “By all means protest, but DO NOT endanger people with your very massive platform.”
Tinashe offered similar criticism, writing, “@LanaDelRey why the f**k are you posting people looting stores on your page literally WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM.”

After awhile, Tinashe was becoming impatient.
We’re waiting!

Kehlani also commented on Del Rey removing the post.
i was told the post was deleted and that was my point so i deleted the tweet but i guess it’s not deleted it’s just reposted ? leaving it up on my story but hopefully if she gets enough dm’s she will take it completely down.
