Charli XCX

It's kind of weird talking about yourself all the time. ”

From the moment I stepped into this industry, I've always had to fight for my ideas and for my voice to be heard. ”

The fashion of the '90s is a massive inspiration to me. My favorite video of all time is 'Say You'll Be There' by the Spice Girls. That's the best styling ever. If I could dress like that every day, I would. ”

I'm actually really bad at the Internet. I'm never scouring it to find new artists or new anything. ”

Most of my youth I spent being obsessed with Baby Spice, so she was my favorite for a really long time. Now that I'm older, I actually really like Posh Spice the best. Nineties Victoria Beckham is perfection, I think. ”

I'm not good at being a picture-perfect pop star, happy all the time. If I'm having a bad day, I can't pretend. I'm always a bit unhappy, but that's just me. I like dwelling in my sadness. ”

I'm just not very good at being happy all the time. ”

I actually think it doesn't even matter what age you are or what sex - though that does play into it sometimes - you always have to fight in any kind of creative world because nobody knows your own brain and your own creative ideas better than you do. ”

I'd love to work with Cher Lloyd; that would be my dream person to work with. ”

I always think about fashion when it comes to making music and music videos... what the colours will look like, what the material will be, how will it work with the sound of the music. ”
