The Instagram post puts forth the wonderful medium to achieve a sort of gracious glam, upon which raw honesty might tread. A hauntingly beautiful voice and whimsical aesthetic adorn her personality-the artist-from jaws agape through fashion able to attend Spellemannprisen to strutting down and hilariously confessing she got her period on the very same day.

The images depict Aurora in fab white attire by @viktoriaaksnes, with stud-worthy accessories from @falconiereshop.The caption went haywire with some ridiculous wordplay: “Woman made by her parents… And soul made by Mother Earth and the moon and blood and teeth and knives and flowers and today I got my period pray for me please 3.” She then humorously corrected herself after “no awards in one thousand trillion years.”
The comments? A choir in appreciation, all helpful, relatable critiques, and furious cries against the awards snub. User @deslychico early on claimed: “Aurora has already won the best prize: the love of each of us.” And @moonbagda discussed the period pain: “I got my period last night 🩸 and today I got a blood test 🤣.”
Dresses were in love by fans. @heavenly6756 gasped, “the back of that dress is so perfect like it literally blew my breath away,” while @auroraupdated could not stop talking about her performance of Through the Eyes of a Child adding this was “one of the most special pieces of music to ever exist.”
But the real bummer about the whole matter is that Spellemannprisen left her without a trophy, and the fans were raging. @_azure_warrior_ blazed: “Not giving Album of the Year to WHTTH is a crime.” In a straightforward tone, @auroraupdated asserted, “I’m literally baffled that you did not win anything fr.” To crown another one, @zoomed_in_aurora contended that awards do not acknowledge her cause: “Your words and you have made me a better person.”
Then came the funny comments about period solidarity. @hollyfae_art cheered, “Got my period today too, let’s bleed together 🩸🗡️,” and @auroraschurchyard was amazed by her bravery: “having ur period in a white dress is some insane trust.” And @lilaquests had to chime in with a poetic blessing: “May your cramps be only Gentle Earthquakes.”
Her humor and vulnerability obviously struck a chord. Anything could be said about the earlier politics of the awards-now they could credit her for having fun about them, lightening up what might be a glitzy red-carpet event. Honesty, that is why people love her. No award necessary.
Deeper reflections were provoked, such as @charlesthe_last’s essay-length praise: “Aurora has an ethereal whimsicality that’s fundamentally unmatched… She’s attractive in a subtle way, perhaps just a smile.” Someone give this person a podcast.

So yeah. Aurora was looking like a goddess bathing in the moonlight, cracked jokes about her period, and reminded everyone that their worth is not validated by shiny statues. Just another day in the life of an artist who refuses to play by the rules.
