Lana Del Rey praises Ariana Grande’s energy
LOS ANGELES (GN): Lana Del Rey has praised Ariana Grande for her vivid energy.
The 34-year-old singer collaborated with Ariana on new track ‘Don’t Call Me Angel’ - which also features Miley Cyrus - and has praised the fellow singer for being ‘’very good at not thinking twice’’ and having the energy to go with her gut instinct.
Speaking during a performance at the Grammy Museum over the weekend, she said: ‘’She’s very good at not thinking twice. Maybe I’m wrong and she questions herself, but I’m very much in my head. She’s very much in her body. You can see it in that baseline physicality. She’s just super fast and on fire all the time.’’
She added: ‘’He’s as easy as I am. I don’t really care if we talk all day and nothing happens. I just feel like if we’re there, we’re supposed to be there. Sometimes we just talk all day. It’s easy in that way. He never comes in and is like, ‘Let’s write a hit!’ Because I hate that.’’
