Lorde BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Lorde is firmly back in the pop zeitgeist this week after a sprint of headline-making developments, most notably with the release of her acclaimed fourth studio album Virgin in late June 2025. The album shattered expectations, racking up more than 273 million streams and registering 16 million first-day Spotify plays, solidifying her as a streaming powerhouse. According to The RaideR Voice, Virgin is a raw, vulnerable exploration of femininity, adulthood, and Lorde’s signature existential honesty, typified by its lead single What Was That and the evocative album opener Hammer. Professional critics like The Emory Wheel highlight how Virgin marks a bold return to her brooding, poetically dark roots, stripping back both production and artifice for a nakedly intimate experience produced with Jim-E Stack and rumored contributions from Blood Orange.

Fresh music arrived this spring when Lorde teased What Was That on TikTok with a cryptic 15-second Manhattan-bound video, then rapidly built buzz by dropping the single on April 24. According to The Hollywood Reporter and Rolling Stone, she staged a guerrilla-style listening event in Washington Square Park, though NYPD shut the spontaneous show down—a classic Lorde twist that instantly trended on social media, as fan-shot videos captured her dancing for hundreds of fans. This impromptu charisma spilled onto TikTok and Instagram, where she also teased behind-the-scenes snippets and announced the album title Virgin.

Business activity is intensifying with the just-announced Ultrasound World Tour. Kicking off September 17 in Austin, Lorde will traverse North America and Europe, joined by openers like Blood Orange, The Japanese House, and Nilüfer Yanya. According to Universal Music Group statements, tour imagery and the album cover feature x-ray motifs, reinforcing Virgin’s theme of transparency, both literal and emotional. Massive demand has seen European concert dates—like her November Amsterdam shows—sold out in minutes, and Australian/New Zealand dates slated for early 2026 have fans desperate to snag tickets.

On the public appearance front, Lorde was recently spotted dashing from BAM’s Harvey Theater in Brooklyn after visiting friend Paul Mescal, inadvertently setting Twitter alight with surprise fan videos. Earlier this year, she contributed a Māori-language duet with Marlon Williams and took part in an A24 Talking Heads tribute alongside Miley Cyrus—a reminder of her broad artistic alliances.

As social media buzz surges, speculation is swirling about further new singles and possible documentary footage from her tour, but no official confirmation exists yet. With Virgin’s introspective candor, a major world tour, and her unpredictable flair for public moments, Lorde is proving 2025 a pivotal chapter in her ever-evolving story.
