She\u2019s been around for so long. I recently went on this deep dive of all of her albums and the evolution of Charli XCX. What\u2019s so special about her, whether it\u2019s her artist project or what she\u2019s written [for other artists], you can tell that she\u2019s written it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn \u2018Gabriela\u2019, there are a lot of melodies where I\u2019m like, \u2018Oh my god, she did that. It\u2019s Charli\u2019,\u201d Lara added. \u201cShe leaves this imprint on everything she does, no matter how different the songs are. I just think that\u2019s so sick. We all think that she\u2019s the sickest person in the world. Excellent artistry and insane amounts of growth, but also very much staying true to herself and what she likes, which we all really want to be like [ourselves].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>KATSEYE\u2019s\u00a0other\u00a0standout single from 2025, \u2018Gnarly\u2019,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/lists\/end-of-year\/best-songs-2025-3912937\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">was named as the fifth best song of the year by\u00a0NME<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/katseye-address-receiving-thousands-of-death-threats-its-heavy-3908055\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the group recently reflected on their rise to fame since winning Dream Academy in 2023<\/a>, including the dark side of success.\u00a0\u201cIf 1,000 people are, like, sending you death threats, it\u2019s jarring,\u201d Lara told the\u00a0BBC. \u201cEven if it\u2019s not\u00a0gonna\u00a0happen, and it doesn\u2019t mean anything, it\u2019s heavy, and it\u2019s jarring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for Charli, she is set to be busy in 2026, starring in the\u00a0A24\u00a0mockumentary\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/watch-charli-xcx-question-cringe-brat-summer-in-new-trailer-for-the-moment-mockumentary-3917998\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Moment<\/a>, which is based around the \u2018Brat\u2019 album and tour, as well as the indie drama <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/charli-xcxs-erupcja-role-almost-went-to-clairo-3890006\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Erupcja<\/a>, the satirical thriller\u00a0Sacrifice, a role opposite\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/artists\/natalie-portman\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Natalie Portman<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0The Gallerist, and an appearance in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/charli-xcx-to-star-with-olivia-wilde-in-upcoming-film-i-want-your-sex-3789611\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">I Want Your Sex<\/a>\u00a0with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/artists\/olivia-wilde\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Olivia Wilde<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>She will also be a part of the queer fairytale\u00a0100 Nights\u00a0Of\u00a0Hero, and will be in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/artists\/dakota-johnson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dakota Johnson<\/a>\u2019s directorial debut\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/charli-xcx-to-star-in-dakota-johnsons-first-film-as-director-3901231\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">A Tree In Blue<\/a>,\u00a0and\u00a0she has also created\u00a0the soundtrack album for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/margot-robbie-and-jacob-elordi-to-star-in-emerald-fennells-adaptation-of-wuthering-heights-3796328\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Emerald Fennell<\/a>\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/margot-robbie-and-jacob-elordi-to-star-in-emerald-fennells-adaptation-of-wuthering-heights-3796328\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wuthering Heights<\/a>, which will\u00a0be released on February 11.\u00a0She recently shared the single \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/listen-to-charli-xcxs-gothic-new-song-chains-of-love-from-wuthering-heights-3908553\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chains Of\u00a0Love<\/a>\u2019 from the film, as well as \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/music\/check-out-charli-xcx-elegant-brutal-new-single-house-with-the-velvet-underground-icon-john-cale-3907238\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">House<\/a>\u2019,\u00a0which featured\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/artists\/the-velvet-underground\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Velvet Underground<\/a>\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/artists\/john-cale\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">John Cale<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"KATSEYE\u00a0have\u00a0said\u00a0they \u201creally hope to\u201d collaborate with\u00a0Charli XCX in the future, describing her as an \u201cinspiration\u201d.
