Singer Songwriter Lorde Set for CBS SUNDAY MORNING, 6/11

Singer-songwriter Lorde has earned critical raves for her music and a worldwide phenomenon with her mega hit, "Royals," but she's not very good at being famous, she tells Anthony Mason in an interview for CBS SUNDAY MORNING to be broadcast Sunday, June 11 (9:00 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network.

Asked by Mason about her trouble dealing with fame, Lorde admits it can be a challenge.

"You don't win by being really famous....I don't think that really helps make good work. And I've always been aware of that," she tells Mason. "It's hard. It's really - it's all body language - the subtlety, the angles. I don't know the angles."

Lorde, 20, hit big in 2012 when "Royals" was released and the song hit #1 on the Billboard charts in 2013 and earned her two Grammys. Her debut album sold more than three million copies.

She learned to navigate fame, she tells Mason, by being true to herself.

"No one wants to see me try to be a cheerleader because I'm not that," she says. "I'm very comfortable at a library or a studio. Those are my places, so I think, you know, just to keep the focus on the work and the words has always felt like the right thing to me."

Lorde also talks with Mason about her songwriting process, her new album and her career.

The new album, she tells Mason, was written while riding the F train in New York City's subway system.

"I thanked the subway in my album notes. Because I wouldn't have been able to make the record without it," Lorde says. "I found it such an amazing space to kind of be around people."

CBS SUNDAY MORNING is broadcast Sundays (9:00-10:30 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network. Rand Morrison is the executive producer.
