Charli XCX Celebrates Album Anniversary with "party 4 u" Video Amid Viral Resurgence
British pop artist Charli XCX recently released a music video for her track "party 4 u" to mark the fifth anniversary of her album "How I'm Feeling Now." The video, directed by Mitch Ryan, features the singer in a desert setting and comes amid a resurgence in popularity for the song.
The track has gained renewed attention after going viral on TikTok and climbing music charts on platforms like Billboard and Spotify. Music critics have drawn interesting parallels between the song's lyrics and F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel "The Great Gatsby," noting similarities in themes of unrequited love and elaborate festivities meant to attract someone's attention.
In other news, Charli made headlines at the Cannes Film Festival with her notably stern entrance at the Magnum party. According to reports, the singer bypassed waiting fans and the red carpet with a straight face, although she was later seen enjoying the high-profile event. The contrasting behavior raised eyebrows among attendees and fans at the prestigious festival.
