Lana Del Rey, Screenwriter?

Born to Die singer Lana Del Rey didn't exactly conquer the music world with her polarizing entree into showbiz (her SNL appearance will go down as one of the stiffest performances in the history of television), so maybe channeling all that smoky '60s-tinged mannequin angst into another medium is the ticket: "When I was starting, I had a vision of being a writer for film and that's what I am doing now," Del Rey (real name: Lizzy Grant) told Vogue Australia. "I'm so happy... Hopefully I will branch into film work and stay there. That will be my happy place." [Vogue AU via NME, Screen Junkies]
