New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Interscope Records) Lana Del Rey has notched her first Top 10 Hit on Billboard's Hot 100 with "Summertime Sadness (Lana Del Rey Vs. Cedric Gervais Remix)." The amped-up dance mix of the penultimate track from Lana's multi-platinum debut album Born To Die , highlights the singer-songwriter's dramatic delivery and haunting vocals, already hitting #8 on the Top 40 chart.

Born To Die debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 when it arrived last year, and it was hailed as "A literate, emotional collection of beautifully crafted, pithily memorable songs" by the Telegraph and " An alluring potion of sultry torch pop, hypnotic trip-hop and David Lynchian atmospherics" by People.

She's also been at work on Tropico , a 30-minute short film directed by Anthony Mandler that will highlight several tracks from her 2012 release Paradise , including "Gods and Monsters," "Bel Air" and "Body Electric."
