Lorde was on the air with BBC Radio 1 recently — and unbeknownst at first to Gracie Abrams, Charli xcx and Chappell Roan, they were, too.

Everything We Know About Lorde’s ‘Virgin’ So Far
05/30/2025In a TikTok clip posted Wednesday (June 11), the New Zealand native played a hilarious game of “Sitting or Standing” on the English radio station, during which she was tasked with guessing whether a few of the famous friends in her contact list were on their feet or seated at that very moment before calling to check. Starting with the “That’s So True” singer, Lorde incorrectly bet that she would be sitting.
“I’m standing, should I sit?” a confused-sounding Abrams answered after picking up the phone, sweetly adding, “I love you.”
The Auckland native was 0 for 2 when she also guessed that the “Pink Pony Club” artist would be sitting down. “I’m so sorry, I’m on Radio 1, I’m doing this horrible show where they make me ask this ridiculous question,” a playfully frustrated Lorde explained to Roan after hearing her answer, to which the perplexed latter asked, “Wait, so is this on the radio?”
When it came time to call Charli, the “Von Dutch” singer was immediately suspicious as Lorde asked whether she was sitting or standing. “What is happening?” she said warily. “I’m lying down.”
“I’m so hungover,” Charli drawled as the “Royals” singer laughed. “Oh, hi everyone. I can’t believe I’m on the radio like this.”
“You’re perfect,” Lorde responded. “Keep lying down, I love you. I owe you.”
The two-time Grammy winner has strong friendships with all three of the artists she called. In her April Billboard cover story, Abrams gushed that her pal is “like 800 years old inside … whenever we’re together, I feel my nervous system regulate differently,” while Roan said last year that Lorde reached out and gave her a list of advice for handling the “abusive” elements of fame.
Lorde’s relationship with Charli has been a little bumpier, with the two women going through a rough patch before publicly resolving their issues on the “Girl, So Confusing” remix supporting Charli’s Brat album. They would later team up to perform the track during Charli’s Coachella set earlier this year.
The “Green Light” artist is now gearing up to drop an LP titled Virgin on June 27, marking her first full-length in four years. So far, she’s shared two singles from the project: “What Was That” and “Man of the Year,” which has recently been taking flight on TikTok thanks to a trend that finds users posting screenshots of toxic messages sent by ex-boyfriends.
Also on Monday, Lorde hilariously reacted to the trend by posting a video of herself widening her eyes and shaking her head in disappointment. “These messages…….,” she wrote in her caption.
