American musician Lana Del Rey has thrown an expletive at a Turkish fan who annoyed her by insistently asking for a “like” on Instagram by dubiously citing his birthday.

According to Turkish media reports on Oct. 9, a young man from Istanbul, named Ramazan Adıyaman, posted a comment on Del Rey’s Instagram account. “Today is my birthday. Can you like my photo please?” the Turkish fan wrote.

“You post this same comment every day. You can only have one birthday, f--- face,” the 33-year-old singer responded to the fan, according to the reports.

“Ramazan has a new nickname,” a Twitter user commented after the incident went viral on Turkish social media late Oct. 9.
