Charli XCX's Tour Rider Includes Pink Balloons, Grey Goose, and Party Poppers
Plus, 13 other things we learned from her phone.
Ever wondered what's on your favorite celebrity's phone (ya know, in a non-weird way)? MarieClaire.com teamed up with Charli XCX to unlock some cellular secrets, and got details on the singer's unpublished Twitter drafts, personal texts, and even her lock screen photo. Let's collectively swipe right, shall we?
What was the last photo you liked on Instagram? "This photo of me and my friend at a Halloween party I threw. We are covered in glitter and feathers. We made this XCX Big Brother house-type-thing, where people were watching us through the window whilst we were partying. It was wild."
Look at your camera roll—what was the last random thing you screenshot? "A picture of Rihanna in a super cute pink Versace outfit! She looks so good here, I love this!"
What's the oldest photo on your phone? "A picture of me and my roommate...but like three years before we were roommates. Spooky."
The newest? "A picture of a fake me pretending to be dead in a bathtub...all part of the Halloween party!"
What's a Twitter draft you still haven't pushed send on? "I never do drafts! I post everything on Twitter. #noregrets."
The last song you played on Spotify? "'Out Late' by Lil Yachty. It's my favorite song of his. It's so beautiful—his voice, the chords—I really like it. I'm such a fan of his. He's on my new song 'After the Afterparty,' and I was so nervous to ask him to be on it because I thought he wouldn't respond. But he did and was into it. I love him, he's the best!"

What about your most *played* song? "'Sex with Me' by Rihanna. One of my favorite songs right now. It goes off at a party too. I love that song!"
What was the last thing you Google searched? "'Best strip clubs in Vegas.' I went to a really good one earlier this year and got a lap dance from a stripper named Symphony, and it was so fun! I've been trying to remember the name of the club but I can't remember—too much champagne that night, maybe!"
What was the last thing you bought using your phone? "My phone has the worst cracked screen right now and I've lost like all my credit cards so I can't buy anything. I am like a walking disaster zone right now."
What do you have filed away in notes? "Lots of song lyrics mainly, and also my rider for when I do tours, and shows, and stuff."
What's your phone's lock screen photo? "Right now it's a picture from this James Turrell exhibition I went to see in Australia. He creates these really amazing light rooms that feel like they go on for infinity in all of these cool neon colors. It was really beautiful."
Open your alarm clock app: how many alarms are saved in there right now? "14. But none of them are on."
How many unread messages are in your little red bubble email counter right now? "7,462. Oh my god that's so scary when I see it like that."
And finally, what's your weirdest phone habit? "I always have to have my phone screen facing downwards before I go to bed. It's so I can't see the light if it goes off, but also I never want t turn it off. It's weird, I should just turn it off!"
