Lana Del Rey has taken to social media to deny claims that she grew up in a wealthy family.The singer-songwriter refuted rumours that she grew up in wealth in a new-deleted Instagram video last Wednesday (October 18), stating that she grew up in one of “the most rural places in America” and her family “had absolutely no money”.In the clip – which has resurfaced online following being taken down by the musician – Del Rey spoke directly to the camera and explained what her upbringing was like, including being left out by other kids at school because of her lack of wealth.“I want to make this video really short and sweet, just because the conversation keeps coming up about me coming from money and my family having money…,” she began the five-minute-long update.In the post, she recalled that her hometown of Lake Placid, New York was “not a wealthy town”, and tackled misconceptions about her going to a private boarding school by saying that she was only able to attend due to “financial aid” – offered as her uncle worked in the administrative building.She also claimed that she had a tough time in the school because other students knew that she wasn’t wealthy, and subsequently gave her the nickname “White trash from Lake Placid.”Lana Del Rey addresses rumours of growing up rich, in since deleted Instagram post.
