Lana Del Rey has claimed that her tour manager quit “for no reason” before her headlining set at Coachella over the weekend.
Days after taking the stage as headliner at Coachella on Friday evening, the singer-songwriter took to Instagram to thank her team for their support.
“Thank you guys. For f**king everything,” Lana began, before revealing she had only recovered from laryngitis “a few hours” before the show.
The Summertime Sadness hitmaker went on to thank individual members of her team and slam her tour manager for allegedly quitting just 37 days before the set.
“(Thank you,) Emily, for stepping up as tour manager when Pete quit for no reason after 15 years because he was butt hurt that I got 10 comped bikes for free from Wally and randomly decided he was more of a stage designer than a tour manager,” Lana wrote, referring to her entrance to the stage with 10 motorcycles.
The singer alleged that she “never got a call” from Pete and “probably never will” but is “still grateful for the 15 years”.
“No worries – 37 days was more than enough time to put together an entire headlining set all by ourselves,” the Young and Beautiful hitmaker continued. “Not stressful at all. Way to go Emily you f**king killed it with grace.”
Lana also thanked her managers Ben Mawson and Ed Millett, before joking, “PS please send me an email If you decide to quit this year- 15 years is a long time for us too.”
In the post, Lana shared a series of snaps from the annual Californian festival, including photos with her surprise guests Billie Eilish, Jack Antonoff and Jon Batiste.
