Lorde adorably answered fans' questions on Tumblr


We don't even want to think about how many questions Lorde has in her Tumblr inbox.

But, further proving she's not your average better-than-you pop star, Ella dove into her messages to answer some Tumblr questions and give her fans a few amazing pep talks.

From hair advice:

(warning: explicit language)

Q: THIS PROBABLY IS REALLY STUPID BUT YOU GIVE SELF CONFIDENCE TO CURLY HAIRED GIRLS. A lot of artists with curly hair straighten their hair and it used to make me feel bad about my hair. SO THANK YOU AND I LOVE YOUU 

A: curly hair is the coolest shit mama i love having this halo of hair radiating out from my face the bigger the better! actually just cut my hair a little shorter so it would be as big and cute as possible

To details about her synethesia:


Q: hey mom are you synesthetic? bc i have sound to color synesthesia and its kinda similar to that one post u made abt 'magnets' being dark electric blues and greens in ur head and it'd be pretty sick if u were too 

A: yep extremely intensely - might write a thing about it and how it has shaped my life because it’s such an unusual beautiful thing to live with

Q: you should describe all your other songs as colors and movements !!!! 

A: i will! one funny thing is when i’m writing, if a song’s colours are too oppressive or ugly sometimes i won’t want to work on it- when we first started tennis court we just had that pad playing the chords, and it was the worst textured tan colour, like really dated, and it made me feel sick, and then we figured out that pre chorus and i started the lyric and the song changed to all these incredible greens overnight!!!

To just some friendly support: 

Q: So I discovered at 16 that my family had a history of bad anxiety and depression bc I started getting panic attacks and never knew what to do with myself, but the only thing that saved me from that year was driving around and playing Pure Heroine over and over. It felt good to know someone so talented could be feeling the same things. 

A: i love you. keep on keeping on
