Lana Del Rey praised Taylor Swift's tireless work ethic and ambition in achieving her groundbreaking success.
As Taylor Swift brings her record-smashing Eras Tour to the U.K., she has the full support and admiration of close friend and collaborator Lana Del Rey.
Del Rey praised Swift's tireless work ethic and ambition in achieving her groundbreaking success.
"She wants it," Del Rey, 38, told BBC News. "She's told me so many times that she wants it more than anyone. And how amazing — she's getting exactly what she wants."
The Norman F**king Rockwell! artist added, "She's driven, and I think it's really paid off," referring to Swift featuring Del Rey on her album, Midnights.
Swift, 34, kicks off the U.K. leg of her Eras Tour on Friday with three nights at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium. She'll also play shows in Cardiff, Wales, Liverpool and a whopping eight dates at London's iconic Wembley Stadium.
As the "Anti-Hero" singer continues shattering records, her peers in the British music scene are in awe of her talents and perseverance.
The admiration is well-deserved, as Swift's latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, recently marked its sixth straight week atop the Billboard 200.
Del Rey summarized that the singer is laser-focused on achieving her loftiest ambitions, saying, "She's told me so many times that she wants it more than anyone. And how amazing — she's getting exactly what she wants."
Last month, dressed in a wild Alexander McQueen look, Del Rey spoke with ET on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Calling Swift's new album, The Tortured Poets Department, "beautiful," the "Summertime Sadness" singer also named her favorite track off the 31-song album.
"It's the one, 'Whose Afraid of Little Old Me,' whatever that title was," Lana told ET.
Del Rey and Swift collaborated on the track "Snow on the Beach" off Swift's Midnights album. Swift previously called the performer "one of the best musical artists ever."
The singer-songwriters also walked the red carpet at the 2024 GRAMMY Awards together this year and attended the Super Bowl together to cheer on Swift's boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
