HORRIFIED Lana Del Rey fans have asked “is she having a laugh” as the UK tour went on sale with sky-high prices.
Singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey is hitting the road next year on her first UK stadium tour.
The Summertime Sadness hitmaker will begin her run of shows in Cardiff on June 23, travelling through Glasgow, Liverpool and Dublin before ending at London’s Wembley Stadium on July 3.
But as tickets went on sale, some of Lana’s fans have been left less than impressed by the prices.
One person on X zoomed into a photo of the stadium and hovered over the different sections, revealing rear standing tickets to be £297, and front standing tickets as £419.
The fan penned: “Lana Del Rey, are you having a laugh with your ticket prices ma’am?” followed by a clown emoji.
Someone else wrote: “If the prices I’m seeing from posts on here about Lana Del Ray @ticketmasteruk pre-sale are correct (£170 for standard standing tickets) then that’s disgusting.
“Major label artists and ticket companies are vultures preying on fans. Respectfully, get bent ma’am.”
A third said: “I’m sorry Lana?! £80.70 to £405 PER TICKET?!?”
A fourth said: “Spent over £300 for lana del rey tickets, miss girl better be rehearsing that whole honeymoon album STAT.”
Someone else echoed: “£175 for Lana tickets oh I remember the days when I saw her for £25.”
And another wrote: “£178 for a lana del rey show which we all know she’ll turn up late for is mad.”
When her new tour was announced, excited fans flocked to the comments to react.
One wrote: “Can’t wait.”
Another said: “Please let me get tickets.”
A third added: “I could cry!”
A fourth commented: “I love her.”
Lana Del Rey exploded onto the music scene in 2011 with the viral success of her debut single, Video Games.
The first half of her name was inspired by the Golden Age Hollywood actress Lana Turner, and the second half – Del Rey – is taken from the Ford Del Rey sedan, a car that was popular in 1980s Brazil, although she originally spelt it Del Ray.
She has released nine studio albums, earned eleven Grammy nominations, and headlined festivals all over the world.
And the star is also due to release a new country-inspired album, Lasso, next year.
