Lorde is praising Taylor Swift as the most perfect girl ever. But not long ago, she was dissing the star! The 17 year old singer suddenly praises Taylor, saying “I think there are artists who are really incredible role models and that’s something I admire. I feel like Taylor is a really good role model. And I think that the girls who listen to her music are so devoted to her. And I think that what she is saying is pretty cool. It’s empowering.”

But let’s not forget that before they became friends, the “Royals” hitmaker criticized Taylor for being perfect and unattainable. For the record, Lorde has publicly dissed Selena Gomez, DJ David Guetta, Lana Del Rey, Justin Bieber, and Miley Cyrus just to name a few. 

Lorde says Taylor was not made though. “She was like, it’s fine if all you’ve done is call someone perfect. It’s not a bad thing.”

Now Lorde says they have befriended one another because they understand the same crazy lifestyle.

Lorde “became an Internet sensation at the age of 16 with the video for her debut single, ‘Royals,’ which garnered over 750,000 hits on YouTube,” according to her iTunes bio. She won Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance for her the song at the 56th Grammy Awards.
