Lana Del Rey Net Worth: After James Franco Interview, Singer Releases New Track From ‘Honeymoon’ – Listen To ‘Music To Watch Boys To’! [AUDIO]

Often controversial due to her remarks on death, fame and even feminist, Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, best known for her stage name Lana Del Rey, is one of the most polarizing figures in music right now, but that hasn't kept Lana Del Rey's net worth from constantly rising.

Del Rey turned 30 years of age only a couple of months back, and it would seem she hasn't stopped working to increase Lana Del Rey's net worth since she hit mainstream success, releasing back to back albums in 2014 and 2015.

Although the New York City-born star has been writing her own music since she was 18 years old, Lana Del Rey's net worth didn't really start rising considerably until 2011, when she released a few of her songs on her YouTube channel that people really responded to, including "Video Games," which turned out to be her first single after being discovered and signed by Stranger Records.

Since then, Lana Del Rey's net worth has been consistently going up, and while she's not as huge as some artists around her age (such as pop stars Rihanna or Katy Perry, both of whom have built empires around their images), considering Del Rey has been around the major music scene for less time than them, her fortune is still quite impressive.

At 30, Del Rey is set to launch her fourth album, "Honeymoon," on September 18, a follow-up to previous work in 2010's "Lana Del Ray," then the 2012 hit "Born To Die" and finally last year's "Ultraviolence," all of which have made Lana Del Rey's net worth rise to where it has now - even if Eminem recently threatened to punch her "right in the face."

A few days back, the singer-songwriter gave Oscar-nominated actor James Franco a very rare interview to speak about herself, ahead of the release of her latest single, "Music To Watch Boys To," which you can hear below.

Currently, Lana Del Rey's net worth is listed at $8 million on Celebrity Net Worth.
