Maverick Sabre has revealed that he is "unsure" about Lana Del Rey.
The singer admitted that rumours about the star have left him uncertain of her credibility as an artist.
Sabre told Digital Spy: "A number one album would have been nice obviously, but Lana is smashing it right now. There's always one or two big albums in the year that do what she's done.
"What she's doing at the moment is quite interesting - I hear a big country element in her vocal style. It's not really my style, but it's interesting. That said, 'Video Games' is a fantastic song."
He continued: "I've heard a lot of rumours about how manufactured she is which made me step back a little. Her dad is a multi-millionaire and she's had a lot of plastic surgery. It makes me question her a bit; I'm very unsure.
"It's interesting music though. If it was a load of s**t and it was number one then I'd be p*ssed. I'm glad there's acts like her coming out and doing well."
The singer's debut album Lonely Are The Brave lost out on the top spot to Del Rey last Sunday.
Maverick Sabre - real name Michael Stafford - recently lost out on this year's Brits Critics' Choice award to Emeli Sande.
