Lorde says it has been a "divine" experience coming off social media.
The 24-year-old pop star deleted all her Instagram posts other than one promoting her upcoming album 'Solar Power' and two others and she despite having 7.2 million followers on Twitter she has no tweets up.
Lorde - real name Ella Yelich-O'Connor - insists it's been one of her best ever decisions and she feels free now rather be pummelled with information all day.
Speaking on Australian radio show 'Ash London Live', she said: "It's been divine, I really enjoy it. I'm a shy sensitive person. It's a lot of information, I realise how I was just pummelling myself with headlines and thoughts from other people all day and it didn't give me much room to have ideas or brainstorm things. I'm very grateful for that now."
