In a statement fans begged her to delete, the songstress slammed her rivals’ number ones as she tried to justify her own music on Thursday amid the lockdown.

The Summertime Sadness hitmaker attacked the very premise of their songs about “being sexy, wearing no clothes, f****** and cheating”.

“Can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or dancing for money – or whatever I want – without being crucified or saying that I’m glamorizing abuse?”

Lanas fans have responded to her tweets, begging her to delete them.

“I love you so much Lana but you don’t need to s*** on other women to make a point,”
