larina 682 Posted August 18, 2014 I was looking at something that I forgot now and I read somewhere that Lana has a grandma named Beatrice Dautresme and in a photoshoot of her in April 1969 for Vogue, she looks almost identical to Lana! Is this all real or is it photoshopped and edited or another person who looks really similar to Lana but has no relation with her. Here are images of the photos in the magazine: 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Platinum Greenwich 13,841 Posted August 18, 2014 Regardless of whether or not they're actually related, the resemblance is uncanny. Makes me think of reincarnation.(unless this Beatrice woman isn't dead, in which case nvm lol) 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
longtimeman 8,908 Posted August 18, 2014 She's not her grandmother, according to everybody (check out https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/beatrice-dautresme ), but there is a close enough similarity that I wonder if Lana saw the photos and used her as a model for the BTD era look. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trash Magic 28,278 Posted August 18, 2014 lmao I remember people spreading this back in 2012. No, its not true whatsoever. If I recall, she was even asked about it in an interview 1 Quote "It's 2011, and we should all be aware of exactly how fast technology is developing" - Lana Del Rey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PinUpCartoonBaby 1,017 Posted August 18, 2014 I never believed this theory of Dautresme being Lana's grandmother, especially because it's solely based on their pretty similar looks what isn't a proof for me at all. According to this site her grandmother's names are Cynthia Grant and Madeline Hill. I don't know how trustworthy this information is but this article on the website of the NY Times about Rob's and Pat's marriage lists at least the same names of her grandfathers as my first source does. So I just dare to believe that the names Cynthia and Madeline are their real ones too. And unless Lana somehow has a third grandma Beatrice Dautresme is not related to her (at least not as her grandmother). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mafiosa 1,089 Posted August 20, 2014 Erroneous, tbh. She'd probably be a few years older than Rob. Also, I don't know much about Lana's family tree, but her last name is not Grant, nor Hill (Pat's maiden name, if I'm not mistaken.) She could be unmarried when she pictured there, but it's still slim chance. Nice try. Not everyone who looks fab and vintage is related to Lana. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
