Despite the fact that her live performance was dubbed one of the most catastrophic disasters in SNL history, we're actually loving Lana Del Rey's first album, and her new song "Carmen" is hauntingly beautiful.

The new single from her album, Born To Die, tells the story of a drug-addicted teen streetwalker, and it's a song close to the singer's heart. Del Rey shared the video via Twitter, with the caption: "Made you something. CARMEN explains everything."

The video features old movie clippings and current behind the scenes footage, and tells the story of a 17-year-old who is suffering substance abuse. The video is set in New York where she grew up, and shows a young woman dancing in a strip club, while other scenes feature the molecular structure of the drug methamphetamine – aka meth - while women dance on poles at a strip club.

Check it out, and tell us what you think!

Lana Del Rey looked bee-utiful on Thursday night while hanging outside the Chateau Marmont in jeans, slippers and a New York Yankees jacket -- but what's with the bugged-out accessory?

It seems the singer, who was dubbed one of SNL's worst acts of all time, is eager to attract the attention of photographers -- who else would stand outside the Hollywood hotspot carrying a giant bee? Certainly not the usual gang of A-listers who take refuge in it's very private interior.

Keep workin' it girl!

Staples Center is the place to be if you're a hot, young celeb!

Lana Del Rey came out to watch the Lakers beat the Warriors 120-112 on Sunday, and she did her best to look the part in an old school lettermans jacket. Could it be this New Yorker is becoming an LA-transplant?! Rooting for the purple and yellow makes it seem so!

Sophia Bush also attended but kept it more fashion forward in a red leather jacket, black pants, and animal print heels. She also had the best accessory - a hot mystery date!

The One Tree Hill star recently split with her longtime boyfriend Austin Nichols, so could this be her new guy?!

We got a brief peek at Lana Del Rey's music video for "Blue Jeans" yesterday, and now here's the official one!

The song is the second single from her debut album, Born To Die, and the video was directed by Yoann Lemoine, who has also worked with Taylor Swift and Katy Perry.

Lana Del Rey may struggle to sing live, but she definitely knows a thing or two about making music videos!

The 25-year-old crooner has dropped her new vid for "Blue Jeans", and this clip features tatted up hottie Bradley Soileau, who also starred in her "Born to Die" video.

Can't get enough of Lana? Catch her on American Idol this Thursday!

UPDATE:
Apologies! The "Blue Jeans" video was leaked early -- we'll post the full version as soon as it's released again!

Lana Del Rey has released the new cover art for her second single, "Blue Jeans", and she's becoming a trending topic yet again...

Lana tweeted, "Video coming soon," and posted this shot of her lying down with a tattooed man's hand around her neck. While he appears to be checking her pulse rather than strangling her, the profane ink on his knuckles certainly isn't going unnoticed!

Despite her shaky performance on Saturday Night Live earlier this year, Lana's first album, Born To Die, debuted on the Billboard music charts at number two, selling 77,000 copies in its first week. We do love Lana, but is this cover art a little too much?

We're sooo confused about Lana Del Rey -- she has such great outfits in her music videos, but when it comes to her street style, she's not exactly nailing it.

We snapped the "Video Games" songstress leaving the Wiltern after the Guns N' Roses concert over the weekend with her midriff exposed, and earlier in the evening we snapped her shopping in Hollywood in an all green ensemble. Hmm, maybe she does need a stylist!

Lana Del Rey covers the latest issue of Lovecat Magazine, and the 25-year-old "Blue Jeans" singer chats about what she spends her millionaire father's money on.

“My biggest indulgence is being an artist," Lana proclaims. "I still think it’s beautiful that I make music for a living. The music videos that I make myself are expensive and it takes money to clear all the copyrights."

"My second indulgence is diamonds," Lana continues. "I have a jeweler in Brooklyn named Uri and he makes me all my custom gold and diamond pieces—grills, triple rings, etc.”

Good thing her daddy made all that dough from investing in domain names, eh?
