Lorde<\/a> thinks the internet can be a poisonous place.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Lorde has opened up about her relationship with the internet<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old singer made a conscious decision to distance herself from the online discourse around 2021, when she released her Solar Power album – but Lorde<\/a> admits she’s now “plugged in” to internet culture again.<\/p>\n

Asked about her relationship with the platform, Lorde<\/a> told Dazed: “I\u2019m plugged in and I like it, although I also know it\u2019s poison. <\/p>\n

“Still, I realise that to be a good artist in 2025 \u2013 or to make pop culture \u2013 you have to be in the soup, to know what the forces are. I was so literate at it as a young person, but around Solar Power I truly didn\u2019t log on for years. I didn\u2019t understand anything anyone was talking about. Now it feels fun again.”<\/p>\n

Lorde<\/a> released her latest album, Virgin, in June, and she’s enjoyed the experience of reconnecting with her fans.<\/p>\n

\nDespite this, the chart-topping star confessed to feeling anxious before joining TikTok.<\/p>\n

\nShe said: “A big part of releasing Virgin the way I have has been asking: what would be fun? What would interest me as someone who sees everything and knows there are ways of doing things? Learning how I want to communicate in that medium, in 2025, has been a really fun challenge. <\/p>\n

\n“This album is about vulnerability and rebirth, and there\u2019s an inherent vulnerability joining TikTok. I don\u2019t know what the f*** I\u2019m doing. I\u2019ll probably get it wrong.”<\/p>\n

\nLorde is actually thankful that she isn’t more famous than she already is.<\/p>\n

\nThe singer likened her life to running a “boutique operation”.<\/p>\n

\nShe explained: “I\u2019m lucky. I seem to be able to cruise around pretty well. It\u2019s amazing. <\/p>\n

\n“I\u2019ve had this understanding since I was 18 \u2013 that the trade wouldn\u2019t be worth it, to ascend to the degree people do. The security component of it. I really had a sense that I would leave things on the table to avoid building a life that trapped me \u2013 something I couldn\u2019t handle. <\/p>\n

\n“I feel like I\u2019ve had the perfect life for me; I get to do my work, and it stretches me to the peak of my abilities. I find it both awesome and challenging. But I still feel like I run a boutique operation. It\u2019s just a handful of us.”<\/p>\n
