Pop superstar Charli XCX spilled the beans in a chat with Howard Stern on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, and let’s just say, wedding bells and wig jokes were in the air.
The 32-year-old Brat icon (yes, we’re calling her that because she’s living that life) was all giggles and gossip on the show this Wednesday, talking about two major events: her upcoming wedding to fiancé George Daniel and, equally important, being parodied by Saturday Night Live’s Bowen Yang. You know, because wedding plans and SNL spoofs rank equally in the hierarchy of life events.
Charli revealed that she and her partner-in-pop-crime, Troye Sivan, had a sixth sense that SNL was about to roast them. “We were, like, psychic or something,” she confessed to Howard. “We just knew it, like when you feel the last slice of pizza is going to be stolen, and BAM, Bowen happened.” But did she hate it? Absolutely not. In fact, Charli gave Bowen a solid 10/10 on his wig game. “I was blown away by the hair texture. I mean, what conditioner are they using backstage? It was a good wig, like, who knew my hair could be that iconic?” Clearly, in Charli’s world, wig quality is no laughing matter—it’s a lifestyle.
Now, onto the wedding scoop. If you were expecting an over-the-top, Kardashian-level event, think again. Charli’s wedding planning is more “Netflix and chill” than “royal ceremony.” She and George are moving at the speed of a sloth on a Sunday afternoon. “We’re planning it slowly… like, super slowly,” Charli laughed. “Honestly, it’s more about the vibes. We’re not into the whole ‘walking down the aisle with doves’ thing. We just want to throw a massive rager with our friends and call it a day.” Translation: they’re not about the “I do’s,” they’re about the “Woohoo, let’s party!”
So, forget formalities. Charli XCX’s wedding is shaping up to be less “royal procession” and more “let’s dance till our shoes fall off.” In other words, the only thing predictable about this pop queen is that her wig, like her wedding, will be on point.
