Charli XCX has teased an unexpected collaboration on her upcoming album ‘Music, Fashion, Film‘.
The popstar recently appeared on French TV show Quotidien, where she gave some hints on what to expect on her seventh studio album.
“There is one collaboration,” she told host Yann Barthès. “I’m not telling you, but you won’t be able to guess”.
The singer said she was so confident at his inability to guess that “I’d bet money on you not guessing. You can try!
“You could have 1000 chances and you still wouldn’t guess,” she added.

‘Music, Fashion, Film’ is due to arrive July 24 – pre-order it here.
The album’s black and white cover is shot by Aidan Zamiri, and sees John Cale, Marc Jacobs, and Martin Scorsese posing together.
So far, Charli has shared the gritty lead single single ‘Rock Music’, and the edgy ‘SS26’ from the record. She is due to release new song ‘Wink Wink’ later today (June 25).
In an interview this year, the artist told British Vogue some of the lyrics to ‘Rock Music’ – prompting speculation that the album would take a heavier direction.
Charli later clarified that she “never said” she was making a rock album, but has previously made clear that she is distancing herself from the sound of ‘Brat’, her seminal 2024 record.
