Crossing the pond? Lana Del Rey tells Courtney Love she would like to live in London as she covers Dazed magazine
Her music has been dubbed Hollywood sadcore.
But Lana Del Rey says that if she was going to live anywhere but California, she would move to London.
The 31-year-old singer - who is getting set to release her highly-anticipated fifth studio album Lust For Life - told Dazed magazine on Tuesday that she thinks she could end up living in the U.K.

'If I could live anywhere in the world other than LA, I’d live in London. In the back of my mind, I always feel like I could maybe end up there,' she told interviewer Courtney Love.
The star - who rarely gives interviews - also revealed she duets with The Weeknd on her new album's title track.
'I also have Abel (Tesfaye), The Weeknd,' she told Dazed, continuing: 'He is actually on the title track of the record, Lust For Life. Maybe that’s kind of weird to have a feature on the title track, but I really love that song and we had said for a while that we were gonna do something; I did stuff on his last two records.'

Lana also revealed that she thinks her music has matured since her ground-breaking debut, Video Games.
She told the publication: 'In the last few years, I feel like I’ve grown up. Maybe I’ve just had time to think about everything, process everything.
'I’ve gotten to move on and think about how it feels now, singing songs I wrote ten years ago. It does feel different. I was almost reliving those feelings on stage until recently. It’s weird listening back to my stuff.'
The Summertime Sadness star - whose real name is Elizabeth Grant - explained that she is all about musical integrity.
'If music is really in your blood and you don’t want to do anything else and you don’t really care about the money until later. It’s also about the vibe, not to be cliched. And the people.'

Also on Monday, she unveiled a song she had written while driving back home from the Coachella music festival.
The star posted the video to Instagram, explaining: 'I found myself compelled to visit an old favorite place of mine at the rim of the world highway where I took a moment to sit down by the sequoia grove and write a little song. I just wanted to share this in hopes that one individual's hope and prayer for peace might contribute to the possibility of it in the long run.'
