Selena Gomez hits back at Lorde's feminist comment
Written by . Published: October 14 2013
Pop star Selena Gomez has hit back at comments made by Lorde after she branded the singer's music anti-feminist.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine the Royals hitmaker, a self-confessed feminist, revealed she was made "sick" by the way Gomez portrays women in her track Come & Get It.
The former child star has now responded to the remarks during an
interview on radio station Hot 99.5, in which she questions Lorde's
take on feminism.
She says, "I appreciate everybody's opinion, especially because
I've covered Lorde's music lots of times. I think she is super
talented and I think it's awesome... But in my opinion it's not
feminism if you're tearing down another artist."
