Lord may only be 17-years-old and one album into her career, but rising superstar Lorde already has a book written about her - by a New York Times best-selling author, no less.
'Lorde: Your Heroine - How This Young Feminist Broke All The Rules And Succeeded', was penned by Marc Shapiro, the book "explores the many facets of Lorde including her feminist viewpoints, how intellectually inclined she is". Sounds like a heavy read, eh?
Shapiro said in a statement: "The intriguing thing about writing about Lorde is that she is so damned contrary to everything that pop music has become.
"She’s a true intellect whose songs have been guided by great authors and deep thinkers rather than the predictable template of current pop music. She’s smart, creative, a true individual and only 17. Stories that are too good to be true but that ultimately are just that makes a biography of Lorde truly something special."
The book is available on Amazon now. We very much doubt that the Westboro Baptist Church will be ordering many copies...
Meanwhile, Lorde joins Foals and London Grammar among the names announced for this year's We Love Green festival in Paris - suggesting she'll be returning to Europe and the UK for more live dates this summer. We Love Green festival takes place at the Parc De Bagatelle in Paris, France from 31 May - 1 June 2014.
