United Kingdom, Sept. 9 -- Lorde thinks the internet can be a poisonous place.

The 28-year-old singer made a conscious decision to distance herself from the online discourse around 2021, when she released her Solar Power album - but Lorde admits she's now "plugged in" to internet culture again.

Asked about her relationship with the platform, Lorde told Dazed: "I'm plugged in and I like it, although I also know it's poison.

"Still, I realise that to be a good artist in 2025 - or to make pop culture - you have to be in the soup, to know what the forces are. I was so literate at it as a young person, but around Solar Power I truly didn't log on for years. I didn't understand anything anyone was talking about. Now it feels fun again."
