People think Lorde just threw major shade at the Grammys because she wasn't asked to perform solo

• The 60th Grammys have come under fire for not awarding more female artists. 
• It has also been pointed out that Lorde, the only female nominated for album of the year, didn't perform solo. 
• Taking to Twitter, Lorde wrote, "IF YOU'RE DEBATING WHETHER OR NOT I CAN MURDER A STAGE... COME SEE IT FOR URSELF" and added a link to her tour dates and tickets.
• People think Lorde threw shade at the Grammys with her most recent tweet. 
• Of the five artists nominated for album of they year, Lorde and Jay-Z are the only ones who didn't perform solo during the show. 

Lorde took to Twitter Monday to encourage her followers to buy tickets to see her "murder a stage" on tour, and people think that in doing so, the singer threw shade at the Grammys.

At the 60th Grammys, Lorde was the only female nominated for album of the year alongside Bruno Mars (who won the award), Childish Gambino, Jay-Z, and Kendrick Lamar. During the show, Mars, Gambino, and Lamar all took to the stage to perform — but Lorde and Jay-Z did not.

Now, fans are convinced that the 21-year-old has thrown shade at the Grammys via Twitter since she reportedly was the only one not asked to perform solo. 

After Lorde posted the Tweet, people were quick to suggest that Lorde was indirectly calling out the Grammys. 

Other fans rallied behind Lorde, offering support and saying that she should have won the award for album of the year. 

According to Variety, Lorde was the only album of the year nominee not asked to perform solo.

The president of the Recording Academy, Neil Portnow, has also come under fire for saying that women in the industry need to "step up." 

A few days prior to the Grammys, Lorde's mother, Sonja Yelich, took to Twitter to share a statistic that mentioned the lack of female nominees in past Grammy history.

Neither the Recording Academy nor Lorde immediately responded to INSIDER's request for comment.
