Taylor Swift and Lorde are two of the most successful (and youngest) female singers today; and seeing them perform together on stage will be a dream come true for their fans. That dream was almost shattered when the Kiwi teen released a controversial statement during her interview with Metro magazine last year. Lorde said, "Taylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don't think it's breeding anything good in young girls. I'm never going to be like Taylor Swift, why can't I be as pretty as Lorde?' That's f**king bulls**t."
That remark caused an outrage among the fans of Taylor Swift, but the "Royals" singer clarified her comment via her Tumblr account. She ended her blog by saying, "I admire her (Swift) very much for this reason. Basically, this is an apology for not thinking too hard before I speak. Peace." The New Zealander admitted to Rolling Stone that she often gets into trouble because of her being vocal. She even said, "People around me, who I'm really close to, were like, 'Do you have to express your opinions all the time?"
After redeeming herself, Lorde revealed how her relationship with Taylor Swift has greatly improved despite the controversies. She said that she was floored to receive roses from the country-pop sensation when her hit song "Royals" reached the top of the charts. The 17-year old singer even seeks advice from Swift and said, "She is super-good at decorating and among a rare breed of real teenage voices."
It seems like everything's going well for Taylor Swift and Lorde. In fact, the two were spotted hanging out in Los Angeles just recently. The Grammy Award-winner even posted their photos together on her Instagram account. The two superstars were seen having fun along the pristine beach in Malibu - laughing, dancing, and even holding hands.
Swift is known for having a long list of celebrity BFFs including Ellie Goulding, Emeli Sande, Cara Delevigne, Sarah Hyland, Hailee Steinfeld, and Selena Gomez. After the Taylor Swift and Lorde BFF hype-up, who do you think will the songstress eye as her next bestie?
