​Troye Sivan and Charli XCX's sweaty new video is making the internet FERAL

Both Charli and Sivan have released albums in the past year, with Sivan’s Something to Give Each Other celebrating queer joy after feeling isolated due to COVID-19 and Charli’s BRAT inspiring everyone to embrace “Brat Summer” — including Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign.

In the video, which already had more than 800,000 views at the time of publication, Charli and Sivan’s chemistry is palpable, and the internet loves it! From commenters talking about their intense sexual tension inspiring a bi awakening to people dying for the duo to collaborate on a new song, people are loving this pop girlie combo.

In the cover interview with i-D Magazine, Charli talked about being part of a “new wave” of pop stars that are “thriving in mainstream culture” despite being part of queer culture which has historically been left out of mainstream popularity.

“And I think that’s myself, that’s Troye, that’s Chappell [Roan]. When I think about the three of us, that’s a lot of music that either is inherently a part of queer culture or is very much inspired by it and that’s super cool,” Charli explained. “When you were doing Bloom you shot this video with Bardia [Zeinali] and I remember at the time being like, Oh my God, this pop star is owning his gayness in a really outward confident way. That was pretty rare for an artist of that level at that time. What was that, 2018?”

Sivan agreed before Charli talked about how great it is that gay culture being a part of music is so accepted today. “We’re eight years on and now you have so many artists being outwardly gay and talking about drag culture. It’s cool that this is not an anomaly anymore,” she said.

While touring for his album Something to Give Each Other, Sivan brought Ross Lynch on stage for a lap dance, so we can’t wait to see what these two pop icons do on their tour!

The Sweat tour is a joint North American tour that will start on September 14, 2024 and continue until October 23, 2024.
