The Aussie singer popped into Radio 1's Live Lounge recently...


...to perform her new single The Show and a cover of Friendly Fires' Jump In The Pool.

The Show

 

While chatting to Jo Whiley Lenka revealed that A-list actress Cate Blanchett was her teacher at drama school and got her her first role in theatre.

The singer also revealed that she starred in Home and Away as Angel's sister, who had purple hair! She decided to study sculpture at art school (Lenka and her boyfriend design all her artwork and make all the sets for her gigs), before realising that she really wanted to make music!

She also loves going to Topshop when in London - who doesn't?!
