Charli XCX admits she thought Brat would end her career before it became 2024’s biggest pop comeback

Highlights:

  • Charli XCX thought Brat might end her deal, not make her a global hit
  • Record hit No.1 in UK, top 10 in 14 other countries
  • Won five BRITs and three Grammys, sparking “Brat summer” craze

  • Now expanding into acting and co-producing A24 films

Pop star Charli XCX has said she feared her label might drop her over her chart-topping Brat album. Album came out June 2024 and no one expected much. But it blew up and the whole year was basically Brat season. “I actually made this record being like, ‘OK, I’m just going to do this one for me. Maybe I’m going to get dropped by my label and that’s fine’,” she told Paltrow.
