Lorde
New Zealand singer and songwriter Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor -- known by her stage name Lorde, released her debut single “Royals” in mid-2013 at age 17, which became an international crossover hit, peaking atop the US Billboard Hot 100 and eventually making Lorde the youngest solo artiste to achieve a US number-one single in three decades.
The same year, she was named among Times' most influential teenagers in the world, and in the following year, she made her way into Forbes's “30 Under 30” list.
