WITH 2011 drawing to a close, we're looking ahead to next year and the new generation of rising stars - bringing you the ultimate guide to the names and faces that are set to define 2012 - whether in acting, modelling, design or music.
Lana Del Rey
You would have to have been living in a cardboard box not to have noticed the Lana Del Rey madness that took place in the latter part of this year. Her first UK gig sold out in 13 minutes and the YouTube video of her debut single, the beautifully melancholic Video Games, has to date had over 10 million views – she hasn’t even released an album yet. As well as possessing a truly magical and affecting voice, the 24-year-old (born Lizzy Grant), has a unique and effortlessly cool look – one she describes as “Ghetto Monesgeque”. She has been accused of having too much hype too soon, but we predict nothing but brilliant things for this unique talent.
