Lorde Buys Full-Page Ad for Handwritten Thank-You Note

Lorde isn't just a two-time Grammy winner—she's a girl with the manners and class to send a handwritten thank-you note!

The 17-year-old "Royals" singer has far too many fans to send every single one something in the mail thanking them for their support, so she did the next best thing: Took out a full page ad in the New Zealand Herald expressing her love for her home country!

The black-and-white ad was published in the paper's Wednesday, Jan. 29, edition—three days after Lorde's "Royals" won Grammy Awards for Song of the Year and Best Solo Pop Performance. "Hiya, if you're reading this, Joel [Little, who co-wrote Lorde's Pure Heroine album] & I won," she wrote, adding endearingly, "HOLY CRAP."
