I don't excuse the racist remarks of her past. I don't have to like everything they do to be a stan. No offense to Australians, but culturally and (especially) historically speaking, they are a pretty racist country. I wasn't surprised to find her being a racist, coming from a small town in Australia. I guess that makes me prejudiced against Australians, so whatever

HOWEVER
Bringing up those tweets three years later is just looking for controversy now that she is big. Maybe its because many Iggy stans, like myself, got upset about it and then got over it ages ago, it just seems very petty now.
**sidenote**I keep seeing the "transphobia" word thrown at her, but the only tweets I saw were racist an homophobic. Can someone show me which one is attacking trans people?
In terms of this particular comment, I agree. It is quite silly to call Lorde a racist because of the lyrics to Royals.
