I don't think people look at how pop stars live and feel anything aspirational at all. Lorde aspirationalfeellive Change image and share on social
I love Top 40 pop, don't get me wrong; I just don't think that there's anyone in Top 40 pop that's 'real.' Lorde lovepopreal Change image and share on social
I'm really interested in kind of weird social situations and cliques, watching girls vying for attention, watching how the popularity thing happens. I've always thought too hard about everything. Lorde attentioncliquegirl Change image and share on social

I'm surrounded by the beach, so I love to fish and to dive and to swim. I walk a lot, and I bike around. I hang out at the beach, really, and muck around. Lorde beachbikedive Change image and share on social

I actually love Twitter and Instagram. I do think it's so strange to think that 20 years ago, people would never have known personal stuff about musicians and actors, but I like it. As long as I don't obsessively overshare, it's OK. And when I do overshare, it's just, like, me saying, 'I've got $7 in my bank account!' Lorde accountactorago share on social
My dad is a civil engineer, and my mom is a stay-at-home mom. The fact that my parents weren't really involved in music was kind of good, because it meant that I had something that was private and personal. Lorde civildadengineer share on social
