It is an honor for me to have met her.” Del Rey isn’t just contributing a song to the film – she’s also set to award del Toro with his very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The ceremony is set to take place later today (August 6), with director JJ Abrams also set to speak. LDR’s full version of “Season of the Witch” is due for release this Friday (August 9) to coincide with the release of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Her new album, Norman Fucking Rockwell, is due out August 30. Watch the trailer below. Escape the algorithm! Get The DropEmail address SIGN UP Get must-see stories direct to your inbox every weekday.
