Oh, Lorde, Why?
Some posts just make you shake your head in confusion and think, “why?” This post, for instance, by singer Lorde, makes us think just that. Whitney Houston’s sudden death was a real tragedy. The star reportedly drowned accidentally in a bathtub inside the Beverly Hilton hotel. Which makes us wonder why Lorde would post something in such poor taste.
Referencing one of Houston’s most famous songs in this pic of a hotel bathtub conjured up memories of the singer’s tragic death. Lorde’s followers met this post with a lot of backlash and disapproval. And for good reason; the death of one of the greatest vocalists of all time — or any death for that matter — is nothing to reference casually or in a joking manner.
