Pop star Lorde smokes weed from DIY fennel pear bong in new music video

Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, known as Lorde, hasn’t released any new music in four years, which is an eternity in the pop world. What was she doing all this time? If you guessed “smoking weed” you are not wrong. The singer returned with a single called “Stoned at the Nail Salon” and released a music video last month that uses a rather surprising plant-kingdom candidate as a smoking device.

Yes, Lorde is briefly shown smoking from a fennel bulb in her new video for “Solar Power”, the title track of her upcoming third studio album. Fans were convinced the visual clip was an in-depth commentary on climate change, although the singer recently denied the theory in an interview with the UK Guardian.

This video is a flower power style stoner fantasy – lots of beautiful people are performing contemporary dance on a secret beach in New Zealand where the kiwi singer has emerged from the pandemic and has taken an extended social media hiatus. In the video, Lorde herself scurries in a canary-yellow underwire crop top and skirt that, as we admit, really craves to be worn while smoking out a vegetable and walking around an idyllic beach.

The fennel shot is short enough to pretend to miss if you weren’t a cannabis reporter (and were looking for it), but Lorde happily confirmed that she was panting in a June interview when a couple of New Zealand radio hosts asked, whether she actually consumed from a lightbulb.

“Yes, I am,” said Lorde. “I took your standard apple bong and made it a little fancier, a little more me.”

“I’m sure if you hit long enough the fennel would start roasting,” replied one of the hosts, who then asked if she had voted in favor of legalizing cannabis in the failed referendum in New Zealand last year.

“Oh my god are you kidding?” She replied, “Everyone knows it’s a yes.”

The referendum that would have legalized the production and sale of cannabis to people over 20 failed with a margin of 48.4 to 50.7 percent.

The country’s popular progressive prime minister, Jacinda Ardern, refused to take a public position on the issue until the election results were confirmed. After the measure failed, she confirmed that she had voted in favor. Since then, she has confirmed her belief that marijuana possession shouldn’t be a crime.

Perhaps Lorde’s recent entry into cannabis culture should be seen as an attempt to influence the opinion of their kiwis. Despite this likely sincerity, their new music has not been compared to universal critical acclaim. Take, for example, the review on Pitchfork for their latest single “Stoned at the Nail Salon”:[Lorde’s] Swinging in the depths is not enough – after all, she is stoned. “

Well, you’ve exposed yourself to some terrible marijuana humor, Ella. To put it in a nutshell, Lorde says that the song is by no means limited to cannabis ramblings and is actually about: “I see this kind of search, the uncertainty of having chosen the right path and the feeling of being lonely not as permanent or even “in bad feelings.”
