Charli XCX Is Here for Kamala Harris’s ‘Brat’ Campaign: ‘Happy to Help to Prevent Democracy From Failing’

Charli XCX says she is happy her 'Kamala is brat' tweet could help 'prevent democracy from failing forever' in a new interview.

Charli XCX caught heat for her July tweet about Kamala Harris being “brat,” but in a new interview with New York Magazine, the pop star says she was just trying to share “something positive and lighthearted.” That’s not how it was viewed by some in the media, especially those of the Fox News ilk. The pop singer, however, is standing by the viral moment and is glad her support of the Democratic presidential nominee may help Harris at the polls. The “Kamala IS brat” tweet spawned countless memes, and Harris’s campaign embraced her brat-ification, even if the media couldn’t quite understand what it all meant.
