Last Wednesday, South Park aired a new episode, and their latest celebrity target was the teen royalty, Lorde. In the episode, Randy Marsh is struggling to keep up his alter-identity as the Kiwi singer (suggesting the idea that Lorde is a transgender man). The episode – of course full of funny jokes – also came full of Marsh/Lorde showcasing his vocal skills in the song, “I am Lorde Ya Ya Ya”.
Today, Lorde took light of the joke and embraced it during an interview with the New Zealand television network, TV3. When speaking to Spin Magazine, Lorde showed her sense of humor saying:
“I was thinking, ‘Yeah he has a moustache…I mean I have a moustache, but is it that prominent?’ But it was someone’s dad pretending to be me. We actually, in my hotel room, went ‘Ya ya ya ya I am Lorde! Ya ya ya!’ for like an hour, because that’s why [sic] they do on the episode, so…”
Lorde even sang the song to show that she laughed it off as well. Watch it below!
