Stephen Malkmus has sparked a flurry of rumours after revealing that he did something for Lorde that means she owes him a favour.
But the Pavement front man, who now performs with his band The Jicks, won't say what it is he did for the Kiwi pop star.
Malkmus sparked headlines with his Pitchfork interview about his new single with Kim Gordon, Refute.
Malkmus told the publication that if Gordon couldn't perform on the song, "I was gonna ask Lorde to do it, 'cause I thought Lorde owed me a favour".
Asked to elaborate, Malkmus shut up shop.
