More quotes by Charli XCX
I like Lady Gaga's music and I think her fashion is great, but I saw her on a chat show and I wanted to punch her in the face.
Charli XCX
Every time I make another record and every time I get a year older, I become more and more confident in who I am and more in tune with what I want as a person. I think it's the same for anyone in any walk of life. You just grow with experience and become more confident in exploring new things.
Charli XCX
When I first started, I wasn't really aware of anything in the industry or aware of who I really was. I just put my music out there and tried to get as many people to hear it as possible.
Charli XCX
I feel like the worst fashion moments of the '90s were kind of the best.
Charli XCX
I know some people are like I'm depressed and I'm a struggling artist and that really works for some people, but that doesn't work for me. I have to be really happy, even when I'm writing my depressing songs I have to come through that stage before I can write. I have to be in a good place. I'm a positive person.
Charli XCX
I don't want to be a pop star. I want to be a nursery-rhyme star!
Charli XCX
I'm spontaneous when I'm onstage. If I feel like talking about a particular issue when I'm in the moment, then I will. I speak about women's rights a lot day-to-day, so that's an issue that's important to me for sure. And I'm not a fan of Donald Trump.
Charli XCX
I was really selfish, and I didn't want to listen to anyone. Then I started working with some really amazing people, traveling more, and figuring out who I was as a person - looking at different things, listening to different music.
Charli XCX
I see music in colours. I love music that's black, pink, purple or red - but I hate music that's green, yellow or brown.
Charli XCX
[My mom] worries about me going and taking drugs, whereas my dad advises me on what drugs to take and what ones not to take. So, they're very different.
Charli XCX
I'm very closed off when it comes to working with people, I'm very selective.
Charli XCX
I love the rawness in fashion.
Charli XCX
I hadn't really thought about the kind of music I wanted to make. I was just making raps and stuff. I thought that was the coolest thing in the world.
Charli XCX
I have a dark side. I think everyone does.
Charli XCX
I feel like I have an affiliation with the '90s. I feel like a lot of things going on in fashion and pop culture were loud and outlandish.
Charli XCX
I've definitely become more commercially successful. I think everything has changed over the past two years. People seem to take me seriously now as a songwriter for other artists and as an artist, which is funny to me because I always thought I was good. I guess that's the main change, which is pretty interesting.
Charli XCX
I always look at my favourite photographs or favourite movies by James Bidgood or Sofia Coppola before I write my songs - they put me in the right frame of mind.
Charli XCX
I've been thinking about where I want to take my live show. I want everything in it to be pink, gold, and black. I don't want people to feel any other colors, like brown or yellow.
Charli XCX
I can't stand to hear my own voice. If one of my songs comes on in a café, I'll run out right away and come back with the police.
Charli XCX
I want to create an experience with my music.
Charli XCX
