Lana Del Rey has a thing for Florence, Alabama, and it is now more evident than ever. Social media erupted after Del Rey was filmed behind the counter of a Waffle House in the area.

While it was not initially clear why she was there, she was wearing a uniform with her own tag on it. Some said that she was “working a shift” at the Waffle House.
However, a few locals quickly stated that was not the case, and that the whole experience was just something spontaneous. Theories were still flying around about her presence in the state of Alabama.
The story is trending on social media, and it has a very interesting backstory. A woman named LaShawn Tuttle claimed that she met the “Radio” singer at a thrift store the day before.
The iconic artist went to the Waffle House to see her local friend, and one thing led to another. What is certain is that the episode will add another layer to the mysticism around Del Rey. She is an artist who occupies a unique lane in the music industry.

Moreover, this was not the only Lana Del Rey sighting in Alabama this week. She was also seen in Birmingham and other places. Local media outlets say that she is not working on new music while she is there.
Singer has a special connection to Alabama
However, is there a music video or documentary involving Alabama coming? It does not look like this is the case. Moreover, her representatives are not talking for now.
Del Rey could be just trying to stay in touch with her “normal” side by connecting with people not in the entertainment industry on a different level.
The “Lust for Life” artist talked about this in the song “Paris, Texas” from the Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd album that was released earlier this year.
She said, “Then I went to see some friends of mine, down in Florence, Alabama.” Her connection to Alabama is quite deep because the New York native lived in Alabama with her then-boyfriend over a decade ago.
Alabama could also be the perfect place for Del Rey to forget about some of her recent troubles.
