Lorde Teases Long-Awaited Comeback With Vague TV Ad

What's Lorde up to?

More Lorde Lorde Profile

Four years after the release of her debut, blockbuster album Pure Heroine, it seems Kiwi singer Lorde is finally ready to release her highly-anticipated follow-up, teasing the album with a cryptic TV ad.

As NZ Herald reports, the short ad spot was aired on Kiwi TV around 7.15pm last night, showing Lorde and her driver sitting in a car sipping on some soft drink, soundtracked with a glossy indie pop track.

The ad ends with two dates — one that teases 2 March for NYC and 3 March for NZ. 

A new website with the URL 'imwaitingforit.com' has been launched to coincide with the ad too, with a mysterious censored title that says "M*******A".

The young singer has largely laid low for the last couple of years, only resurfacing in February last year to pay tribute to David Bowie at the BRIT Awards.
