3Lorde is another star who's spoken out about Selena Gomez, this time because of her music. The musician made no secret of the fact she's no fan of Gomez's 2013 single, "Come & Get It" while speaking to Rolling Stone that same year (via HuffPost). "I love pop music on a sonic level, but I'm a feminist and the theme of [Gomez's] song ['Come & Get It'] is, 'When you're ready come and get it from me.' I'm sick of women being portrayed this way."
She was then asked about her comments by MTV News and refused to back down. "I have pretty strong morals and opinions being in pop music, and I can't help but express those, which I think people appreciate. I mean, I don't think I say anything that isn't backed up. Most of the time I will stand by things that I've said," she said.
As for what Gomez had to say about the matter? She hit back in an October 2013 interview with Flaunt where she scolded Lorde for claiming she was a feminist while tearing another woman down. She hit back, "That's not feminism. [Lorde is] not supporting other women. That's my honest opinion, that's what I would say to her if I saw her. I actually covered her song in all of my shows that I've done so far. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue that."
