Lana Del Rey reveals the story behind those viral Waffle House photos

Lana Del Rey has revealed why she spent some time pouring Coca-Cola and coffee at a Waffle House over the summer.

Del Rey explained in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that she was simply visiting friends in Florence, Alabama, where she hung out at the same Waffle House for several days in July with her brother and sister.

We were on our third hour [that day], and the servers asked, Do you guys want shirts? she said. Hell yeah! We were thrilled.

Staff also made her a name tag.

Del Rey was encouraged to pitch in and recalled serving one customer in particular.

This guy, a regular, comes in every day and orders two things, so they were like, Just go get it for him! I brought him a Coke. No ice. And an empty cup.
For dip, she added, meaning chewing tobacco.

Video and social media posts of Del Rey in uniform behind the counter sparked speculation the Summertime Sadness singer was moonlighting as a waitress.

I wish my album had gone as viral, Del Rey joked. I woke up to, like, 10,000 texts the next morning some from folks I had not heard from for 10 years. Saw your picture at the Waffle House! [Laughing.] I was like, Did you hear the new album?

Apparently, she live in Lake Placid NY for a bit.
But I don't consider her local. Her sound is rather industrial, from what I've heard.

~I don't get an Indy vibe from here.

Nah, her sound is a hodgepodge of late 2000s pop, r an b, Midwestern Americana and 2010s folk basically

If you've listened to anything other than her singles if becomes more apparent

She's the reason that Billie eilish and Olivia Rodrigo exist.

There does seem to be some industry to her sound.
I wouldn't put her in the Indie category.

Imagine being in a restaurant where some guy is spitting out his nasty chew into a cup. Disgusting.
