British pop superstar Charli XCX toured Hollywood Forever Cemetery for a Rolling Stone cover story detailing her upcoming album "Music, Fashion, Film" [1, 2].

The interview provides a rare glimpse into the artist's transition from her 2024 project "Brat" [1] to a new creative era that integrates music, cinema, and style. This shift marks a pivotal moment in her career as she expands her artistic identity beyond the recording studio.

During the shoot in Los Angeles, Charli XCX spoke with Senior Writer Angie Martoccio about the atmospheric nature of the cemetery [1, 2]. "It just feels like classically L.A., this sort of mismatch of different architecture, different feelings, these…" she said [2].

The singer used the conversation to clarify the sonic direction of her new work. While her previous projects have experimented with various electronic sounds, she said that "Music, Fashion, Film" is not a rock record [1].

The feature appeared in the July/August 2024 issue of the magazine [1]. In the piece, the artist reflects on the impact of "Brat," which was released in 2024 [1], and how that experience informs her current approach to filmmaking, and fashion.

By choosing a cemetery as the backdrop for her discussion on new beginnings, the artist highlighted the contrast between the permanence of the location and the fleeting nature of pop trends. The conversation focused on her desire to create a multidisciplinary body of work that transcends traditional album formats [1, 2].

“"Music, Fashion, Film" is not a rock record.”

Charli XCX is positioning herself as a multidisciplinary creator rather than just a pop musician. By linking music with fashion and film in a single project title, she is signaling a shift toward a conceptual, holistic brand of artistry that mirrors the intersectional nature of modern celebrity and digital media.
