Frances Bean Cobain has called out to Lana Del Rey on Twitter for romanticizing the deaths of rock stars Amy Winehouse and Nirvana lead singer, Kurt.
"I wish I was dead already," Del Rey reportedly said during her recent interview with The Guardian for her sophomore album, "Ultraviolence." The musician apparently expressed her admiration for the young rockers and the glamor she saw in death.

"The death of young musicians isn't something to romanticize," posted Cobain on Twitter Sunday.
She added that she will never have the chance to know her father, who committed suicide in 1994, because people like him thought death was cool. Frances Bean was just turning two when Kurt Cobain was found in his Seattle home dead, apparently from committing suicide. Small wonder Del Rey's death wish did not sink well with Cobain.
"Embrace life," Cobain advised Del Rey with some life-affirming words, telling her that she is too talented to waste life away.
The "Ultraviolence" singer has yet to respond to Cobain's series of tweets. But after fans jumped in the musician's defense, Cobain felt she needed to clarify herself.
"I am not attacking anyone," she wrote. "I have no animosity toward Lana, I was just trying to put things into perspective from personal experience."
Del Rey has since regretted her interview with The Guardian, accusing the paper of misquoting her and taking her out of context.
In an unrelated interview with "Reason TV," former Nirvana bassist and Kurt Cobain's close friend, Krist Novolesic, referred to the singer's death as a "bad choice." Novolesic said the young rocker wasn't too beautiful for this world. It was a chemical thing, CNN reported.
