    Lana Del Rey: Most Searched Woman On Google 2012

    She beat the likes of Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Michelle Obama and the recently deceased Whitney Houston, but who is Lana, most of you may ask?

    Well, that question is probably the reason why she got the title. The indie and angelic singer Elizabeth Grant, or whom we know now as Lana Del Rey, came on to the scene in 2011 but exploded this year. But another question you may be asking yourself is, what did she do to be recognized as the most searched woman?

    Lana's released an album and a re-release in just the one year.

    One of the factors of her winning the title of the Most Searched Woman would be her dreadful performance on Saturday Night Live.

    Lana travelled around the world with countless performances and photoshoots to promote herself.

    Del Rey became one of the biggest fashion icons of the year, with support of some the biggest brands known.

    She achieved a lot this year like Best New Artist at the Brit Awards, Woman of the Year at the GQ Men of the Year and Best Alternative at the EMA's

    Long story short Lana is the Queen.
