Charli XCX

Recommended Posts

Omg I wanted Pop the Balloons to happen and look what I did. I’m so proud. Leak it, ladies. The verses SLAP & the chorus STAYS WITH U... whether u love or hate it, that’s Charli’s songwriting genius at work! Gotta be one of the catchiest songs she’s written!

 

If I was a Kardashian I’d pay $450 for PTB & bless us with it immediately. Unfortunately that’s about how much my car payments cost me every month, so..... :defeated:

 

We know it’s leaking sooner than later anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

pop the balloons will never leak

do yall consider charli a gay icon? 

I mean I wouldnt put her in like Madonna/Lady Gaga/Cher/etc. level gay icon but thats only because of popularity. She's constantly acknowledging her huge LGBTQ+ fanbase and is constantly working with LGBTQ+ artists/writers/producers/creatives so I'd say yeah.

There was actually a small discussion of this nature in one of the queer FB asian groups I was in and one thing that I realized is that some gay icons don't give homage to the queer* community. Charli, however, continues to acknowledge the importance of the queer community in her career - in her interviews, instagram posts, twitter posts, etc. She herself not be queer so if that's a criteria for being a gay icon, then I guess she's not an icon BUT if we exclude being queer as a requirement for being a gay icon, then I think she is definitely a gay icon.

 

*using queer instead of LGBTQ+ because + includes allies and she's definitely an ally

Since I became a fan of Charli, I've always kinda considered her like more of a modern-day Madonna/Cyndi Lauper type of figure, musically... just in a general sense.

 

Idk, I could be way off... :biblio:
