‘Sounds like a lie’: Lana Del Rey trolled for hailing Kim Kardashian after starring in new SKIMS campaign
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Lana Del Rey, the most recent star to shine in Kim Kardashian's SKIMS collection, has become the target of Internet trolling.
Critics suggest that her praise for Kardashian, after she featured in SKIMS Valentine's Day campaign, was "forced".
The 38-year-old songstress reportedly serves as the face of the brand's new Valentine's Day collection, which is slated for release on January 23.

While Kim has had numerous celebrities model for her lingerie line, Lana's participation appears particularly noteworthy given her admiration for the songstress.
"I've been a big fan of SKIMS since the beginning, so being featured in their Valentine's campaign is so exciting," Del Rey said in a release.
"Their collection is so pretty and dreamy, which made collaborating with [photographer] Nadia Lee Cohen on the creative so fun. I hope you love it as much as I do," per People.
This year, the brand's Valentine's Day Shop has grown to include over 29 limited-edition collections of intimate wear, sleep sets, and loungewear.
These will be available for purchase on the Skims website, as well as other selected retailers, starting from January 23, per Variety.
