Lorde’s boo says dating his famous girlfriend hasn’t been easy … Lorde’s Chinese Boyfriend Pens Touching Open Letter To Her Being on the outskirts of fame has taught Lorde ‘s boyfriend a lot. In a new blog posted on his site titled “everybody returns someday,” James K. Lowe talks about how his life has changed since Lorde became a huge celebrity. Via Page Six reports: “Since originally sitting down to write this post, Ella has become a two time Grammy winner. She has taken home a Brit too.

There is a bright, shining silver lining to this thing … I’ve been able to tell tales of the many amazing people I’ve met along the way – from fellow photographers, to artists I’ve always admired and never thought I’d get to meet, let alone have a simple thing like coffee with… People who seem to scramble the words within your brain and the only thing you end up doing is blurting out ‘HILSKDFLKWELK’ (at some point it’s a verbal greeting, but ends up a flurry of sweat mixed with spit). More importantly, I’ve found a little inspiration from new faces. People I look up to. People whose work I admire so much,” he says. “For all of this I have to thank the one I look up to the most. Who I admire the most. Who still fills the little voids I try to avoid.” Could it be Lorde? IG Continue reading →
