Artist Charli XCX has kicked off the summer with a TikTok trend inspired by her latest album, ‘Brat.’
TikTok’s ‘brat Summer’ began trending after British singer Charli XCX released her ‘Brat’ album on June 7.
While fans enjoyed the album after its release, they embraced all of the ‘brat summer’ essentials that the musician mentioned in an interview with The News Movement.
“It can be, like, so trashy – like a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter, and a strappy white top with no bra. That’s like, kind of all you need,” Charli XCX responded after being asked what the trend was all about.
In one viral TikTok, a poster listed all of the ‘brat summer’ activities one might need to do to slay the new trend.
Among the must-do’s were: sleeping in your makeup, wearing sunglasses inside, and wearing the color lime green even if you’ve never worn the shade before, as it’s the color of Charli XCX’s new album.
