Charli xcx teases next big move after ‘Brat’ success

Charli xcx asked fans if Brat summer is now over at her latest performance at the LIDO festival.

The 32-year-old pop icon gave a dynamic performance on stage as she sang her hits from the album which took the pop music world by a storm.

The Apples hitmaker was dressed up in a cropped top, studded black leather hotpants as she engaged with the crowd with her energetic moves and songs.

At the end of her performance, Charli told the audience,"this was a real pleasure to come here with basically all my favourite artists. I hope you had as much fun as I did. This is not the end though, I promise.”

The Grammy winner then hinted at whether the Brat era is over, saying, "Is this like a Brat Summer again or should I put a bullet in it?"

The concluding song in the performance was Icona Pop's I Don't Care (I Love It). Leaving the stage, Charli said, "This is it", while the screens displayed a message written in the Brat font.

The message said, "But actually I don't think it is. So tell me the truth. Will you hate me if I stick around? Because I don't know who I am if it's over. And so I have decided. I want this to last forever."

It concluded with fireworks, "It wasn't just a summer thing. It's a forever thing. Please don't let it be over."

The ending note seems like the pop superstar is not ready to part with her Brat era for now and a new album, accompanied by a new era might not be on her radar immediately.
