Marina Diamandis, aka Marina And The Diamonds, might just be our new favourite feminist pop star.

Diamandis features on the latest cover of Nylon magazine where she is heralded as: "The sound of feminism now."

The Welsh singer tweeted a picture of the cover, followed by a second tweet which appeared to quote her 'Can’t Pin Me Down' lyrics: "Do you really want me to write a feminist anthem? I’m happy cooking dinner in the kitchen for my husband."

(We say "appeared" because a large portion of the tweet was in emojis.)

Previously speaking to The Guardian, Diamandis commented on the lyrics saying: "Am I feminist? Fuck, yes. But even with feminism it’s not about being independent the whole time. There’s nothing wrong with being a housewife."

Later on Twitter, she went on to suggest that it's ridiculous to even ask a woman if she is a feminist in 2015.

Before calling inequality "absolutely insane".

She signed off by proving a feminist can believe in equal rights and still enjoy cooking dinner for her man every once in a while.

Bravo, Marina. Bravo.
