After settling on her new name, Lana posted a few songs (with accompanying, DIY music videos made on her Mac) to {{Youtube}}. One song in particular, "Video Games", caught the attention of many music blogs and critics alike. To capitalize on the sudden interest of the track, Lana released "Video Games" (with a [[BSide b-side]], "Blue Jeans") as a single on Stranger Records in October 2011, and it became a [[SleeperHit sleeper hit]] all across Europe. Not long afterwards, Lana was signed to Interscope Records, and her (major label) debut ''[[WeAllDieSomeday Born to Die]]'' was released worldwide in January 2012. For a relative unknown like Lana, it actually sold pretty well in its first week; she even managed to knock {{Adele}}'s ''21'' off the top spot [[BeyondTheImpossible in many countries, including the UK]].

After settling on her
You can't talk about Lana without addressing the major controversy (controversies?) surrounding her sudden rise to fame, mainly relating to her image and persona. The biggest issue people seem to have with Lana is her supposed lack of "authenticity"; In interviews, Lana claimed to have lived in a trailer park for years, but it soon become known that she [[SecretlyWealthy actually comes from money]] (her father is a millionaire), leading people to question why she'd [[SlummingIt purposely live in squalor]], and if she used her name to win some connections in the music industry. Others find her [[HypeAversion immensely overrated]], and uninteresting as a performer. Probably the most trivial of complaints directed at her, though, is in regard to her lips; many feel they are [[GagLips comically exaggerated]] from cosmetic surgery, though Lana herself claims they aren't surgically enhanced. In any event, [[TheScrappy people have found many reasons to hate on her]].
