Donald Trump is America's new president - and a certain chart-topping pop star from Devonport has a thing or two to say about it.

Lorde took to Twitter today to slam Trump in a series of tweets that called him "artless" and "graceless".

She said she had fond memories of hearing Obama talk when she was younger.

In comparison, Lorde said Trump could "barely speak in meaningful fluent sentences".

Lorde isn't the only high-profile Kiwi to speak out about Trump, with Kiwi director Taika Waititi also slamming Trump after he beat Hillary Clinton in last week's US elections.

Don't even think about moving to New Zealand. You shat the bed, now you have to deal with the mess.
