New Zealand singer Lorde claims she holds nothing against female musicians who use sex as part of their act.
Speaking to the contrary of many assumptions made about her after she said she had no desire to dance around in her undies, Lorde said that this doesn't mean she holds anything against artists who do. Rather she hasn't felt the need to do the same as it isn't reflected in her own musical style.
''People like to paint me in a certain way," she told V Magazine. "But I'm a hugely sex-positive person and I have nothing against anyone getting naked. For me personally I just don't think it really would complement my music in any way or help me tell a story any better. It's not like I have a problem with dancing around in undies - I think you can use that stuff in a hugely powerful way. It just hasn't felt necessary for me.''

Going on to discuss her success, she said that it was totally unexpected as she just felt like she was a "misfit" making music.
''It's pretty mental, really," she said, "I made this music in New Zealand at 15 years old with my producer, who was 28 - just these two random losers, really. Now all these people like it, and they care about what I have to say, which is nice, because I'm the weirdo for sure. For the most part, people have been really supportive. I feel very grateful.''
