Yet another reason Lorde is the coolest 17-year-old pop star on the planet? She's got "flaws" and she's not afraid to point them out to the whole world, or at least the 1.3 million people who follow her on Twitter.

On Sunday, March 30, the "Royals" singer shared two photos of herself from her performance at Lollapalooza in Santiago, Chile, earlier that day and wrote, "i find this curious - two photos from today, one edited so my skin is perfect and one real. remember flaws are ok :-)"

Of course, this is the same girl who before becoming BFFs with Taylor Swift dubbed the pop star a less than stellar choice of role model for young girls for being "so flawless" and "so unattainable," and later shared a selfie of her face covered in zit cream . So we're really not surprised she's continuing her crusade against the notion of perfection.
