Lana Del Rey Helps Stranger ‘Trying to Stay Out of an Abusive Relationship’ While Listening to Tate McRae

In Los Angeles, singer Lana Del Rey came to the aid of a stranger who was trying to escape an abusive relationship. While she was driving at night, she noticed a woman with a sign on her window that said "trying to stay out of an abusive relationship." Del Rey hopped out of her car to give the woman a $100 bill, letting her know to stay safe.

The stranger's song was Tate McRae's "Rubberband," from her 2021 EP. Del Rey's act of kindness comes as she is praised for her new collaboration with Zach Bryan on "Lies," which dropped on his album Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs. She recently released "First Light," which serves as the theme song for the James Bond video game of the same name.

Del Rey has been focusing on perfecting her upcoming country album, Stove, but has not been making many live appearances.
