Looks like Lana Del Rey has some explaining to do about her recent TV appearance on BBC's "Later...With Jools Holland".

The "Video Games" artist has not been seen lately on performances, and when she finally came out on this one, she seemed to struggle with the right notes and end with a lackluster set.

Del Rey, who talked about loneliness, and parental and alcohol consumption problems in the song, started her performance with a melancholic stare at the cameras and a lot of inaudible whispers on the mic.

Aubrey Plaza's features a pink lipstick, Patricia Arquette's sees two cherries, and Jason Schwartzman's boasts a pickle. It is still unclear what's the meaning behind those quirky images.
