I feel like the U.K. is a better breeding ground for pop, partially because the radio play is more broad and open to new ideas and sounds.
Quote by -Charli XCX
In the same way that musicians inspire me, artists and photographers like David LaChapelle influence me with their visuals. A photographer like LaChapelle creates an entirely new and unique visual for their work, and that's what I'd like to do with the Charli XCX world as well.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I'm not good at dressing up fancy; I always just do my thing, which is whatever I'm in the mood for.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I never dress for the occasion correctly because I hate fashion rules. They're so boring.
Quote by -Charli XCX
'True Romance' was definitely, in part, still me finding my voice as a writer. I was nervous, and I was a lot more shy. The album sounds bruised.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I am very spontaneous when I write; it kind of just comes out. I never think about what I'm going to write about first... it just sort of comes out like word vomit.
Quote by -Charli XCX
Obviously, getting a number in the charts is a nice thing but the cherry on the cake rather than the main cake.
Quote by -Charli XCX
Obviously, my label would want me to be on the radio all the time, but that's not my personal goal.
Quote by -Charli XCX
When you're growing up, I think there's this idea that the coolest people are the ones who are really rude and feverish. But I've come to realize that isn't cool.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I'm going to build an empire. I'm always writing for someone else. I want to be someone who has her fingerprints all over the pop charts.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I feel like I can be six different people in one day sometimes. Which is fun but also really strange in my own brain.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I've always said that if I couldn't be myself, first I'd want to be Eminem and then a Disney kid.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I loved Justice and Uffie and everyone signed to the label Ed Banger. They were really influential to me when first started making music.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I love karaoke and totally hog the mic when I go out and do it with my friends.
Quote by -Charli XCX
There's something about girls together, uniting, that I just thought was cool.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I just feel like the songs I write lend themselves to this girl-power feeling, and those are the artists that I looked up to when I was younger.
Quote by -Charli XCX
Whenever I'm writing a song, if I have an idea for the music video, that's how I know it's a good song.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I always see my songs in colors, and I'm often more inspired by movies and photographs than I am by other songs when I write my music. I'm also inspired by fashion, and I want my music to be a visual painting of what's in my mind.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I think it's awesome when a woman is in control of everything she's doing, especially in an industry like this where people think that doesn't happen often, but it really does - well, from my knowledge and how I manage my own project.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I think debate is good. Everyone has an opinion, and it's definitely healthy to voice those.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I get on with people. I don't hang out with people who aren't nice. It's like, be real or go home.
Quote by -Charli XCX
My voice is different, but I don't think I'm the only one with a different take on pop music.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I think the process of 'I Love It' becoming such a big song opened my eyes to sides of the industry that I'd never been aware of, which I wasn't so into.
Quote by -Charli XCX
All my favourite pop songs are the most stupid ones, the ones that are the most obvious.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I always love wearing Vivienne Westwood. Her dresses just seem to fit me perfectly, and she makes dresses for girls with curves - I love that.
Quote by -Charli XCX
Fashion is instant. It makes you feel something the second you see it on a body... whether you love it or hate it, or it offends you, or it makes you laugh or cry.
Quote by -Charli XCX
In the '90s, there was always this continuous pitting of women against each other in the media, trying to make them battle it out.
Quote by -Charli XCX
From the moment I stepped into this industry, I've always had to fight for my ideas and for my voice to be heard.
Quote by -Charli XCX
I think it's cool to be a rock star; I don't think there are many. There aren't many who speak out and take risks. And I think that's important.
Quote by -Charli XCX
The scenes in 'The Virgin Suicides' where Elle Fanning is ice skating are really amazing.
Quote by -Charli XCX
When I was younger, I was quite scared of a red lip. But I started listening to '60s French ye-ye pop when I was making 'Sucker.' I was looking at Brigitte Bardot and those kinds of girls. When they were dressed up, it was often a bold red lip.
