Footage posted by fans to TikTok show the singer jogging on a treadmill in her undergarments singing Supercut, a multi-platinum-selling song from 2017\u2019s Melodrama album.<\/p>\n

\u201cBest night of my life,\u201d one TikTok user commented on a clip from the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m gonna sob… this was life changing,\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n

A third fan said the experience was a \u201ccore memory unlocked\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember playing tiny clubs, I remember playing Laneway here when I was 16,\u201d Lorde told fans during some stage patter.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou would just show up and with so much passion. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re down to f*** around and find out, that\u2019s why we\u2019re still meeting up like this after 13 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Last week, Lorde brought her tour home to New Zealand for two sold-out shows at Auckland\u2019s Spark Arena and Wolfbrook Arena in Christchurch, where she also shed her clothes as part of a stage routine to reveal her Calvin Klein underwear.<\/p>\n

Lifestyle reporter Mitchell Hageman, who reviewed the show<\/a>, said <\/a>the night was \u201cethereal, raw, quirky, emotional, bizarre\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was hard not to feel a pang in your heart and realise the gravity of our homegirl\u2019s achievements, and what it means for her to represent us on the world stage,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLorde proved to her T\u0101maki Makaurau brothers and sisters that being yourself, especially when things are against you, is one of the most empowering things you can do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lorde\u2019s Ultrasound World Tour will play a second Sydney show tonight, before moving to Melbourne later this week and one final show in Perth next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Footage posted by fans to TikTok show the singer jogging on a treadmill in her undergarments singing Supercut,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":489894,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[143787,1929,64,63,16485,109167,38019,134,8837,32482,81569,247586,136,35062,1787,15458,158512,6622,90373,2349,126725,175676,247584,670,319,245,14110,247585,1720],"class_list":{"0":"post-489893","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-aotearoa","9":"tag-at","10":"tag-au","11":"tag-australia","12":"tag-boxer","13":"tag-briefs","14":"tag-down","15":"tag-entertainment","16":"tag-icon","17":"tag-last","18":"tag-lorde","19":"tag-maroon","20":"tag-music","21":"tag-night","22":"tag-of","23":"tag-pair","24":"tag-pants","25":"tag-part","26":"tag-performing","27":"tag-show","28":"tag-stop","29":"tag-stripped","30":"tag-strips","31":"tag-sydney","32":"tag-to","33":"tag-tour","34":"tag-ultrasound","35":"tag-underwear","36":"tag-world"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=489893"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489893\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/489894"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=489893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=489893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=489893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
