I want to quit music, babe, and act.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Quenlin highlighted the success of her 2024 album Brat, Charli jokingly added: \u201cWhat else is there to do?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 33-year-old singer noted she had shared an idea for a horror film on TikTok, which she said would be an \u201cit-girl Final Destination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nShe explained: \u201cWe would be being killed by machinery or something like that. And I feel like if it was an it-girl thing, all the deaths would be on the runway. I would probably die at some kind of a rave. You know what I mean?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBack in November, Charli &#8211; who is also working with Jack Antonoff on music for the upcoming horror movie Mother Mary &#8211; reflected on how much she has been enjoying working in the movie industry.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe wrote on her Substack: \u201cFilm is where my creative brain seems to be gravitating.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI\u2019m enjoying acting, I\u2019m enjoying writing, I\u2019m enjoying watching and I\u2019m above all enjoying discovering a new craft.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nHowever, while film has proven to be \u201creally enriching and instinctual,\u201d Charli insisted at the time she wouldn&#8217;t be walking away from her chart career entirely.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added: \u201cMusic is a limb I will probably never fully be able to cut from my body despite trying quite hard to do so at points.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nMeanwhile, Charli recently praised her The Moment co-star Kylie Jenner.<\/p>\n<p>\nSpeaking at a Q and A in Brooklyn, Charli shared: &#8220;I really enjoyed shooting the Kylie scene, obviously.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe film features cameo appearances from a host of big-name stars, including Kylie and Rachel Sennott. And Charli had a huge amount of fun during the shoot.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe shared: &#8220;The first scene we shot for the film was with Rachel and the last day was with Kylie. So we sort of bookended with two legends, which was pretty cool \u2026 two people playing themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nCharli found working with Kylie &#8211; who has achieved billionaire status through her make-up brand &#8211; to be really easy.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe singer explained: &#8220;I think with the Kylie scene, it was so fun, because it really was so easy and effortless and she really, like, played with it, did her thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/charli-xcx-teases-career-change-plan-1438786.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8 March 2026 Charli XCX wants to &#8220;quit music and act&#8221;.
