Lorde, Perfect Places, Tonight Show

With her highly anticipated album now in stores, Lorde performs her new single, “Perfect Places,” on NBC’s The Tonight Show. Just before taking the stage, the pop singer sits down and laughs it up with host Jimmy Fallon.

As we previously mentioned, the Grammy-winning singer burst onto the music scene at the tender age of 16. While Pure Heroine was topping the charts and changing the mainstream, the brunette beauty took a  lengthy hiatus before heading back into the studio. The title of her second album, Melodrama, is a cheeky nod to Greek melodrama and her abiding love of theater.

Check out our 5 thoughts on Lorde’s performance on The Tonight Show:

5. She Looks Amazing!

The “Green Light” singer was just radiant in her white outfit. The lighting perfectly captured a heavenly yellow glow around her. The flowers on her back was a nice touch to the performance piece.

4. That Mustache

Anybody know why the Tonight Show host hasn’t shaved off that mustache? Is Fallon trying to get that mature and sophisticated look? I don’t get it…the mustache doesn’t work for me.

3. She Loves Onion Rings

The New Zealand native actually has a secret Instagram account dedicated to reviewing onion rings. Everyone needs a hobby. Foodies can follow Onion Rings Worldwide if they wish to.

2. Do You Love Onion Rings?

In one of her posts, Lorde critiques her latest dish, “I think this one was from Auckland, New Zealand. Batter is much better than a crumb coating. Onion was pickled on the inside so it gave that nice tangy flavour but it was rather crumby – I would rather have had a nice smooth coating of delicious batter. Found image on my phone along time ago so I can’t remember exactly where this was from. 3/5.

1. Perfect Places

We’re here for the music! And boy, can she dance!

Lorde’s latest album, Melodrama, is now available online and in stores.
