Last year, Lana Del Rey starred in Kim Kardashian's Valentine's Day advertising campaign for her shapewear brand, SKIMS. However, just a few days ago, an intriguing rumor started to circulate online: Kardashian was allegedly suing Del Rey for a staggering $1 million. The apparent reason? Del Rey failed to disclose her Instagram posts promoting the SKIMS campaign as paid advertisements, which subsequently drew the scrutiny of the esteemed National Advertising Division, a nonprofit organization.
In a timely Instagram comment today, Del Rey swiftly denied any such lawsuit by Kardashian. "No, no, this isn't happening," she wrote in response to a post from podcaster Sloan Hooks of Let's Get Into It. "As far as we both know, this isn't the case. I'm not sure where this rumor originated, but if it somehow comes to pass due to compliance issues, we'll deal with it accordingly. But let me assure you, this will never be the end of our friendship." Furthermore, according to TMZ, a source with intimate knowledge of the situation claims that the allegations of Kardashian suing Del Rey are "categorically false."
It's worth noting that Kardashian has been a long-time admirer of Del Rey. When Kanye West proposed to her, he arranged for an orchestra to play Del Rey's "Young And Beautiful" at San Francisco's AT&T Park, adding a touch of elegance to the romantic moment.
On a different note, Del Rey teased her fans last week with the upcoming release of "Henry, Come On," a single from her anticipated country-infused album, The Right Person Will Stay. She has been hyping this album since January 2024, when the SKIMS campaign was launched. Scheduled for release on May 21, Del Rey has yet to unveil any music from the album, leaving her fans eagerly awaiting its arrival.
