Pop star Lorde has apologised for her tone-deaf Instagram post which appeared to reference the death of Whitney Houston.
The post included a photo of a bath tub along with the caption, "And iiii will always love you", the lyrics of a popular song by Houston.
Houston, 48, had died in 2012 when she accidentally drowned in a bathtub in Los Angeles. Three years later, her daughter, Bobbi Kristina, also died in a similar manner.
After angry fans lashed out at the Kiwi singer, she deleted the post and issued an apology in an Instagram Story.
"Extremely extremely poorly chosen quote," she wrote.
"I'm so sorry for offending anyone I hadn't even put this together I was just excited to take a bath. I'm an idiot. Love Whitney forever and ever. Sorry again," Lorde added.
