Lorde has topped the Billboard list of most powerful under 21-year-olds beating some pretty stiff competition!
Billboard have released their list of hottest stars under 21 years old – and Lorde has bagged the top spot!
The 17-year-old topped the chart of ‘music’s most powerful minors’, beating the likes of Justin Bieber and 5 Seconds of Summer amongst the host of stars.
Billboard said of the awards, “"These 21 artists have already accomplished a great deal, but are safe bets to continue finding success as they edge towards adulthood. For now they're just kids, but they're the kids that everyone in music is watching."
Justin Bieber came in in third place – and it’s the last time he will feature in the list as he turns 21 in March 2015 and The Vamps also made the list at number 20 – not bad for the newcomers of pop!
