Sharing a love for pop stars like Britney Spears and the Spice Girls, Charli XCX turned that love into a career. Starting to write at an early age, the singer eventually turned to social media to help expand her stardom. But given that social media was limited at the time, the singer capitalized on the popularity of Myspace in 2008. Posting songs to the platform, Charli XCX released her debut studio album in 2013 with True Romance. Following that release with several other albums, her last, Brat, hit airwaves over the summer. And now, it seems that the singer will head to Saturday Night Live. But while a singer, Charli XCX will do more than perform.
Looking at the lineup for Saturday Night Live, Charli XCX will be on hand to perform during tonight’s episode, which is new. Airing at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT on NBC, the show marked Charli XCX’s third time on the show. She first appeared on SNL back in 2014 alongside Martin Freeman. And she returned in 2022 with Oscar Isaac hosting. But tonight, the singer looked to share the stage only with herself as she will host and be the musical guest.
