The 'Venice Beach' singer was accused of being racist after a fiery Instagram post aimed at her critics.
By Thursday, however, Del Rey responded to the pushback in the comments section of her original post. She noted that she was a fan of the artists she’d mentioned and had intended only to point out the double standards that she and her pop contemporaries face.
“This is sad to make it about a [women of color] issue when I’m talking about my favorite singers,” she wrote. “I could’ve literally said anyone but I picked my favorite fucking people. ... There are certain women that culture doesn’t want to have a voice it may not have to do with race I don’t know what it has to do with. I don’t care anymore but don’t ever ever ever ever bro-call me racist because that is bullshit.
The 34-year-old singer continued, “When I said people look like me ― I meant the people who don’t look strong or necessarily smart, or like they’re in control etc. It’s about advocating for a more delicate personality, not for white woman.”
