In recent interactions, Charli and actress Gillian Anderson praised each other, with Anderson calling Charli an 'inspiration'.

At Variety's Hitmakers Awards on December 7, 2024, Charli XCX was honored as Hitmaker of the Year, where she expressed her admiration for the 1967 album 'The Velvet Underground & Nico'.

In her acceptance speech, Charli described the Velvet Underground's debut album as groundbreaking and influential, highlighting its significance in her artistic journey.

She emphasized the album's role as a collision of high art and DIY culture, blending themes of poetry, drugs, and contrasting emotional tones, and referred to it as 'the apex of fine art'.

Charli noted the album's humble beginnings, having debuted at Number 199 on the Billboard 200 and peaking at Number 195, with only around 30,000 copies sold in its first five years.

Her latest album, 'Brat,' released in June 2024, received acclaim as Album of the Year from NME, showcasing her artistic range.

Charli aims to create an intimate connection with her listeners, likening her music to a conversation one might have on a cab ride to a club.

She has a thoughtful approach to fashion, believing that clothing conveys messages about one's identity and reflects her evolving musical style.

For the awards ceremony, Charli wore a sheer brown halter-neck dress, complemented by neutral makeup and burgundy nails, with her hair styled in loose waves.

Looking ahead, Charli is set to perform at major festivals including Coachella 2025 and Primavera Sound, and will embark on a US arena tour in April and May 2025.

Additionally, she will headline Parklife 2025 and curate a performance at London’s LIDO Festival, along with outdoor shows in Belfast and Dublin.

Charli also mentioned her merchandise's availability at Urban Outfitters, likening its iconic status to that of the Velvet Underground album cover in modern art galleries.
