LONDON, Nov 20: Grammy-winning singer Lorde says her mother, who travels with her around the world, stops her from acting like a diva.
The 18-year-old singer, who has achieved worldwide global pop success since the release of her debut album ‘Pure Heroine’ last year, said her mother puts a stop to any histrionics straight away, reported Contactmusic.
“I live at home, in my childhood bedroom. I travel with my mum and if I were to ever say anything a little bit diva-esque, she’d knock it right down,” she said.
The ‘Royals’ singer, who has just compiled the soundtrack for ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1’, still enjoys living the life of a regular teenager.
“It’s important to me that I’m still in touch with my teenage life, even if what I’m doing every day may not be strictly teenage. So the second I get home I’m calling my friends. I love being young and I want to retain that for as long as possible, even if I am like an old lady and working all the time.
“My friends all tease me. We’ll go out and get food, and without fail one of them will say, really loud, ‘Oh my god! Is that Lorde?’ It’s so horrible, but they’re great.” (PTI)
