During an interaction with TMZ, via DelReyLoud on Instagram, a reporter for the publication ended up asking the singer out. Inquiring if she was interested in having a drink with her, even Del Rey was surprised at the boldness of the man.

She even went as far as questioning him on the same, asking how audacious he was for asking her a question like that on camera.

Lana Del Rey Said Yes?

Celebrities getting asked out on camera is a surprisingly common occurrence. Many feel bold in their presence and put forth the question, not expecting anything in return, and usually, they are turned down in some way or another. However, the interaction between Lana Del Rey and the reporter, who introduced himself as Adam, went very differently.

Instead of avoiding him or gently letting him down, the singer actually ends up taking him up on his offer. She started by telling him that he should turn off his camera, and then she would consider it. After he mentioned that he often pulled up the camera so that people would actually pay attention to him, she told him that she would have been more interested in speaking to him without the camera.

After the small conversation, Del Rey told the reporter to give her his email. However, she did have a condition for him; he had to turn off his camera. While the interaction ended there and not much else is known, fans could not help but talk about how many times the singer told him to turn off his camera and he didn’t.

“Fumbling hard on camera broooo wtf” said dannydee_jr on Instagram.

“I would have turned off the camera the first time she said, especially the way she seemed like she’s interested.” added rayrek.

“Jesus this is so cringey. How could you absolutely fumble this?” thenotoriousgonzo said.

“You should have destroyed all the cameras in the radius of 1km bro…” mentioned saujanyasengar.

“This dude just rizzed up Lana del ray omg” added angelogoan.

Others talked about how surprised he must have been when the singer actually showed interest. It is safe to say that the entire interaction is extremely surprising for many and very much on-brand for Lana Del Rey.
