Grammy Rule Change Adds to Lana's Frustration

A rule change by the Recording Academy impacted Lana Del Rey's chances at the Grammys. The alteration stipulates that featured artists on an album must be part of at least 20% of the album for a nomination. Lana's appearance on one song in Taylor Swift's winning album "Midnights" fell short of this requirement, contributing to the disappointment expressed by fans rallying under the Justice for Lana campaign.

Despite the Grammys' snub and the disappointment surrounding Lana Del Rey's nominations, the artist took to Instagram to share a positive perspective. In her recent comment, Lana emphasized her enjoyment of the ceremony, stating, “I literally just loved being there. I love to see everyone, get the tea and hang out. Get dressed up. I literally did not feel 1 ounce of negative emotion at any point in that award ceremony. It was pure funniness and laughter.” Lana's response reflects her resilience and focus on the positive aspects of the experience, despite the challenges faced at the Grammys.
