​"I have actually been a lot more offline," Charli began. "I don’t really look as much anymore. It’s just better for my brain."

​"The discourse is loud, and sometimes that can be very overwhelming," she remarked, referring to the social media chatter.

​"I know people probably won’t believe me, because I am inherently, at least in the past, a very online artist," she said. "But I recently have been really struggling with my mental health to the point where, if I’m being real, I’m in the worst place mentally that I’ve been in my life."

​"It got to a place where my anxiety was physically affecting me, and I can’t actually proceed in life like that," she said.

​Now, Charlie has an unconventional ways to interact with her fans.

​"Things have changed now," she confessed, sharing, "I’m interested in making things really intimate between me and my audience, and sitting down one-on-one with a person and having a conversation."

Music, Fashion, Film is all set to release on July 24, 2026.
