Singer Lana Del Rey says she cringes when people bring up feminism and says the topic pales in comparison to developing space technologies.

In an interview with a New York-based music magazine, Del Rey said her idea of a true feminist is a woman who feels free to do whatever she wants.

"Whenever people bring up feminism, I'm like, god. I'm just not really that interested," Del Rey told Fader magazine. "I'm more interested in, you know, SpaceX and Tesla, what's going to happen with our intergalactic possibilities."

Del Rey is not the only US singer to avoid the feminist label, with Katy Perry and Carrie Underwood making similar statements recently.
