SOUR GRAPES?

Lorde sparks rumours she’s got beef with Pink after she remains stony-faced during her Grammys performance

Royals singer didn’t raise a smile after the US superstar’s incredible performance

LORDE has sparked rumours she’s got a problem with US superstar Pink after she failed to smile during her Grammys performance.

The Royals singer looked mutinous at the end of the 38-year-old’s set and barely moved her hands as the crowd around her applauded like crazy.

Fans who spotted Lorde, 21, in the crowd quickly accused her of having a problem with Pink because of her reaction.

One who captured it on video asked her Twitter followers: “@lorde ‘s expression after @Pink performance??? WTH?? Baby claps??

“Is there some sort of beef here I don’t know about??”

A second fan commented: “Why did Lorde look so p*ssy after Pink's performance?”

Another tweeted: “This one couldn’t be bothered. @lorde you could have at least pretended to be impressed by those drop dead vocals.”

She was later seen singing and dancing along to Rihanna’s jaw-dropping performance of her hit Wild Thoughts.

There could be another reason for Lorde’s stony-faced expression however.

Before the night it was claimed she’d had plans for a solo performance on the night snubbed, despite
being nominated for album of the year.

The eventual winner, Bruno Mars, Childish Gambino and Kendrick Lamar, who were also nominated, were all given solo performances.

According to US reports, she was only asked to join in with a tribute to Tom Petty and so decided to “pull out” of going on stage.

She also skipped the red carpet and was only spotted once the show had started last night.
