SA kabila ng pagkakaiba sa mga awiting kinakanta, sina Taylor Swift atLorde ang higit na malapit sa isa’t isa sa larangan ng musika. Bagong dating mula sa AMA noong nakaraang linggo, naka-chat ni Lorde si Jimmy Fallon tungkol sa pagiging malapit niya kay Blank Space singer sa The Tonight Show noong Martes.
“She sent me some flowers, which was so nice,” pagsisiwalat ni Lorde, 18. “She just sent them to my house and said, like, ‘Congratulations on everything.’ I was like, ‘God, I need to know more!”
Nagdesisyon magkita nang personal sina Lorde at Swift, 24.
“We actually met up here in New York,” patuloy na kuwento ni Lorde. “We had Shake Shack, which I feel like is kind of a good bonding… a friendship, like, bonds with those thick-a-- milkshakes.

“She’s really funny and people don’t expect it,” dagdag pa ng Royals singer. “It’s really dry and you’re almost like, ‘Wait… did I? Is that what you just… Did that just happen?’”
Noong Nobyembre 2013, kumalat sa Twitter na sila ay nasa Shake Shack.
“Lorde and Taylor Swift were at Shake Shack in NYC today and sat at a bench together,” saad ng isang netizen na may kalakip na larawan ng dalawa.
Nagulat ang mga tagahanga nang makitang magkasama silang namamasyal dahil noong nakaraang dalawang buwan, sinabi ni Lorde sa isang panayam na ang blond singer ay isang masamang impluwensiya sa mga kabataan.
“Taylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don’t think it’s breeding anything good in young girls [who might think,] ‘I’m never going to be like Taylor Swift, why can’t I be as pretty as Lorde?’ That’s f--king bulls--t,” sabi ni Lorde sa Metro Magazine.
Ilang araw lang ang lumipas, humingi ng paumanhin si Lorde sa Tumblr, tungkol sa kanyang mga sinabi kay Swift.
“What I meant was: there’s a lot of importance placed on physical perfection in this industry,” pahayag ni Lorde sa Tumblr. “And i wish my favourite stars didn’t look perfect because i think fans (me included) have these feelings of worthlessness, like they’ll never be as pretty/talented/whatever, as a result of this intense photoshop culture and the endless strive for perfection.
“ts was the first person I thought of, which I regret,” pagpapatuloy ni Lorde. “she happens to be good looking, but I think she actually uses her other imperfections in an incredibly powerful and relatable way. Taylor Swift has a very unique vision, which I admire. I think somewhere along the line also there was a misquote where people got the impression I thought writing about love was shameful. I don’t! I just haven’t found a way of doing it which is powerful and innovative, which is why I don’t… I admire her very much for this reason. basically, this is an apology for not thinking too hard before I speak.” - Yahoo News/Celebrity
