Lana Del Rey has a presence that turns most men to quivering wrecks – Foals were no different.
The singer and Oxford band went for dinner in Paris, which saw frontman Yannis Philippakis turn mute and really sweaty.
Frontman Yannis Philippakis said: “She [Del Rey] was in Paris, just being Lana Del Rey and ended up coming to dinner via a mutual friend. I got really excited. I’m in awe of her. It’s funny to see someone like that. She’s really nice. I didn’t say anything. I was like a sweaty teenager, wanting to hide under the table.”
The good news is at least she rates their music.
Yannis added to NME magazine: “She said some nice things. She said she liked ‘Give It All’, and was just generally a sweetheart. The world is better for Lana Del Rey being here.”
