16 Year Old Kiwi Prodigy Lorde

Now this is interesting: A bright-eyed 16-year-old singing sensation from New Zealand has topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart in America. Her name is Lorde and you can't get away from her music on American radio. Her chart-topping hit "Royals" has made her a household name here.

Must be something in the water.

Yes, Hayley mentioned her on Twitter recently, and I'm pretty sure is following her on twitter, too.

Yeah, I actually really like her EP! The album, not so much, sadly. And one of the admins might want to change that !6 to a 16.

How did you guess, Taylor?

Here's Lorde's official video of "Royals":

Lorde is a label mate of Hayley's — Universal — and her debut album title borrows a lot: "Pure Heroine". Having "Pure" show up in another 16-year-old Kiwi sensation's debut....is this pure coincidence?
