16 Year Old Lorde has the hottest song in the country with her alternative ballad “Royals”
Her song “Royals” just hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 list. Who is Lorde ahead of on the list? Only Katy Perry’s “Roar” and Miley Cyrus’s “Wrecking Ball.” Lorde also topped the magazine’s Alternative Chart, the first woman to do so in 17 years.
She’s only 16! She was born in 1996! Lorde’s topping of the Billboard Hot 100 this week makes her the youngest at No. 1 in 26 years since Tiffany’s “I think We’re Alone Now” in 1987. Lorde was signed to Universal at the age of just 13. She isn’t shy about the fact that no matter how big she gets, she’s still a teenager, tweeting last month, “c’mon acne don’t do this now.”
Lorde, born Ella Yelich-O’Connor, is from Auckland, New Zealand. Her father Vic O’Conner is a civil engineer and her mother Sonja Yelich is a poet. She was raised in the suburbs with three brothers and sisters.
