Charli XCX drops B‑sides edition of Music, Fashion, Film and headlines Los Angeles pop‑up
British pop star Charli XCX released a digital deluxe B‑sides edition of her album Music, Fashion, Film on iTunes on 26 July 2026, priced at $4.99. The edition adds three previously Instagram‑only tracks – “I Keep on Thinking Bout You Every Single Day and Night”, “Playboy Bunny” and “If You Take the Music Then What Has She Got?” – each with a black‑and‑white music video. Charli explained on Instagram that she had originally opposed streaming the B‑sides, calling herself a “hypocrite” after fan pressure.
The main album arrived on Friday, 24 July 2026, accompanied by a 42‑minute short film that she wrote and directed, featuring a cameo from Canadian horror director David Cronenberg. The cover art shows three cultural icons – musician John Cale, fashion designer Marc Jacobs and filmmaker Martin Scorsese. To promote the release, Charli staged a pop‑up event in Los Angeles on 24 July, where she performed in black micro shorts with gold sailor‑style buttons, glossy patent‑leather peep‑toe stilettos and a Cartier watch.
She also announced a short North‑American arena tour beginning 11 September 2026 in Philadelphia, with stops in Brooklyn, Toronto, Boston, Washington D.C., Atlanta, San Diego, Los Angeles, Glendale and Las Vegas. The tour will support the new record, which blends rock‑inflected guitars with her experimental pop sensibility.
