Lana Del Rey is 38 years old, has been chosen as the best songwriter of the 21st century by Rolling Stone magazine, and less than six months ago, she released her ninth album, ‘Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd’. She has concerts booked throughout July and August. So, can anyone explain what she’s doing working as a waitress in a waffle shop in Alabama?
It’s always sunny in Alabama
To everyone’s surprise, it’s true: dressed in the official Waffle House uniform, a chain with over 1700 restaurants in the United States, the singer has been serving tables, working behind the counter, and taking photos with all her fans. The 40,000 inhabitants of the city of Florence had never seen anything like this before. While you are calmly teleworking, on the opposite side of the street, one of the greatest pop stars of all time is serving cappuccinos.
And no, it’s not a double, nor an experiment: nobody exactly knows why Lana Del Rey was waitressing during the day and going on an international tour at night, but she didn’t hide it either. Meanwhile, on her Instagram, she announces concerts at tacky shopping centers, like a Walmart in Arizona, and nobody really understands what’s happening, even in the comments.
Looks like nobody should be buying tickets to Alabama, as it seems to have been a one-time thing. The singer, playing the role of an ordinary person, visited Waffle House and ended up waitressing with a name tag printed with her name. The double life of Batman and Bruce Wayne apparently doesn’t work for a pop superstar. Just ask Miley Cyrus, who knows all about it.
Some say it’s a marketing campaign, that she’s filming a new Waffle House commercial, or that it’s simply a break from her busy life or a return to her roots. Whatever the reason may be, it’s clear that we’ll need to scrutinize the next person who serves us at Starbucks, just in case Shakira also gets the urge to lead a double life.
