identity in a <i><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/lorde-cover-homepage-shell-1235340022\/\">Rolling Stone<\/a><\/i> cover story published today. The pop artist recently released a statement alongside the announcement of her new album <i>Virgin<\/i> in which she described her femininity as &#8220;raw, primal, innocent, elegant, openhearted, spiritual, masc.&#8221; At the 2025 Met Gala, she <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_new\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/music-news\/lorde-met-gala-look-easter-egg-new-album-1235963799\/\">described<\/a> her look as an &#8220;easter egg&#8221; for the album, as it made her &#8220;feel like a man and a woman.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            Speaking to <i>Rolling Stone<\/i>&#8216;s Brittany Spanos, Lorde said she is \u201cin the middle gender-wise,\u201d adding, \u201cI\u2019m a woman except for the days when I\u2019m a man,\u201d when asked if she identifies as non-binary. She explained, \u201cI know that\u2019s not a very satisfying answer but there\u2019s a part of me that is really resistant to boxing it up.\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            She described her decision to come off birth control for the first time in over a decade while making the album as making her feel like she had \u201ccut some sort of cord between myself and this regulated femininity.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            &#8220;It sounds crazy, but I felt that all of a sudden, I was off the map of femininity,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And I totally believed that that allowed things to open up.\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            As for how this relates to her music, Lorde says she expects a strong reaction to <i>Virgin<\/i>. \u201cThere\u2019s going to be a lot of people who don\u2019t think I\u2019m a good girl anymore, a good woman. It\u2019s over,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It will be over for a lot of people, and then for some people, I will have arrived. I\u2019ll be where they always hoped I\u2019d be.\u201d\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            <i>Virgin<\/i> is due for release on June 27. Lorde will then go on the Ultrasound tour. Kicking off in September 2025 in Austin, Texas, the run of dates will see her playing arenas across the U.S., before hopping over to Europe and the U.K.\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">David Renshaw<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
