When you look in the mirror, on Instagram, or in the pages of New York, you’re just looking at Charli XCX and her sprawling international consortium of hotties. Her album brat is partly dedicated to the muses featured in her music video for “360†— Julia Fox, Gabbriette, and Rachel Sennott to name a few — and to the producers making the songs bump, like her friends A.G. Cook, EASYFUN, and The Dare. But invites didn’t just go out to Charli’s (brat) green-room besties, led by her favorite 1975 member, George Daniel. The album and rollout also confronted her uneasy, slightly parasocial relationships with mainstream pop stars. It doesn’t just position Charli, with her fans and friends across film, TV, and fashion, in the center of the pop world — she’s everywhere. It’s so Julia.
