Charli XCX and The 1975 drummer George Daniel are married
The couple were seen posing in front of London's Hackney Town Hall on Saturday. Daniel wore a suit, and Charli XCX wore a Vivienne Westwood bridal mini dress, Vogue confirmed.
The 'BRAT' pop star posted a video on TikTok while wearing the same bridal minidress. It featured the text 'when george isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle,' and a caption, 'luckily he did.'
The Grammy-winning Charli XCX, born Charlotte Emma Aitchison, is an English singer and songwriter who first made waves in 2012 for writing the synth-pop hit, 'I Love It' for the Swedish duo Icona Pop and in 2014, for her collaboration with rapper Iggy Azalea on 'Fancy.' In the years since, she's continued to innovate, working with the futuristic hyperpop collective PC Music. Most recently, she released the energetic, hedonistic, summer-defining album, 'BRAT.'
Daniel is an English musician, record producer and DJ, best known as the drummer and founding member of the popular pop-rock band The 1975.
Charli XCX and Daniel announced their engagement on Instagram in 2023. The pair have collaborated a number of times in the past. Daniel is a feature co-producer and co-writer on two 'BRAT' tracks.

Tracee Ellis Ross Rejected Oprah Winfrey Calling Her The "Poster Child For Singledom": "I Don't Want To Be That"
Tracee Ellis Ross is reflecting on Oprah's comments about her ongoing single status. The moment came in an episode of Tracee's new series, Solo Traveling With Tracee Ellis Ross, which finds the Emmy-winning actor exploring the joys of the world as a single and childless woman. Reflecting on the freedom of solo travel, Tracee said, "So much of what traveling is about, is for me, not waiting for something in order to walk towards my life, in order to be in my life, in order to experience my life. I think that was why I took my first trip solo. And I know that in some ways — I mean, Oprah said it. She said that I'm the poster child for singledom. I don't want to be that." Instead, Tracee prefers to reframe the conversation as someone living on their own terms and not waiting for traditional things to add value and meaning to their life. "I want to be the poster child for being an inhabitant in your own skin," Tracee said. "For living in your own skin." Although some might see being single and childless at an older age as a negative, Tracee, 52, says it has afforded her a freedom and an experience that she might not have otherwise had. "Yes, I am a single Black woman who does not have children, but not having a relationship — long, long relationships — not having children has allowed me to explore things of my own humanity," she reflected. "It has deposited me here at 52 in an extraordinary experience that is filled with joy, loneliness, grief, exuberance, delight, like, literally all of it. And I feel available to it." While Tracee didn't specify when Oprah's comments occurred, they appear to be from a 2020 interview on her Your Live in Focus series, where Oprah told Tracee how many single women view her as "an example of what being an unmarried woman could and should look like." When asked if she ever imagined playing that role, Tracee laughed, "No. I, like many of us, was taught to grow up dreaming of my wedding, not of my life." She added, "I spent many years dreaming of my wedding, and also, waiting to be chosen. Well, here's the thing. I'm the chooser. And I can choose to get married if I want to, but in the meantime, I am choicefully single, happily, gloriously single." She repeated that message in a 2021 interview with Harper's Bazaar: "People are like, 'You're the poster child for being single.' And I was like, 'Great.' But what I would prefer is that I'm the poster child for living my life on my terms. And that there's a version of that for everyone. I don't live my life for other people. I just totally live it for me." You can (and should!) watch Solo Traveling With Tracee Ellis Ross now on Roku. Trust me when I say — it's great. Let me know what you think of her reflections in the comments below, too.

Beyoncé surprises fans with Destiny's Child reunion at final Cowboy Carter show
Beyoncé brought the house down Saturday night at the final show of her Cowboy Carter tour in Las Vegas, surprising fans with a Destiny's Child reunion. The Grammy-winning artist closed out her tour Saturday night with the trio performing together for the first time in seven years. Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams and Beyoncé stepped out in matching gold ensembles, thrilling the crowd with hits like "Lose My Breath," "Bootylicious," and Beyoncé's own song, "Energy." The chart-topping group went their separate ways in 2006 to pursue solo careers but have reunited a few times since, including during Beyoncé's halftime performance at the 2013 Super Bowl and at her 2018 Coachella headlining set, the latter of which was the most recent public performance together. After the show, Beyoncé shared photos of the reunion on Instagram, with fans flooding the comments to express their excitement and disbelief about the rare occasion. Following the Destiny's Child performance, Beyoncé's daughter, 13-year-old Blue Ivy, joined her mother onstage. Blue has been a regular dancer throughout the tour, making her own mark on the show. The Vegas show also featured several guest performances, with Beyoncé bringing out her husband Jay-Z and country singer Shaboozey for brief cameos. The Cowboy Carter tour, in support of Beyoncé's eighth studio album of the same name, kicked off in April at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. The Las Vegas performance was the 32nd and final stop on the tour, which included a memorable show in Beyoncé's hometown of Houston, Texas, last month.

Beyoncé's surprise Destiny's Child reunion at Vegas concert has fans speculating about new album
Beyoncé delivered a surprise Destiny's Child reunion to close out the final night of her Cowboy Carter tour — and fans are theorizing it's a teaser of what's to come. The singing icon, 43, ended her epic three-month world tour, which was in support of her 2024 Grammy-winning Cowboy Carter album, in Las Vegas Saturday night. Just as the backtrack to her Renaissance song 'Energy' began playing, Beyoncé emerged from the stage alongside former Destiny's Child members, Michelle Williams, 46, and Kelly Rowland, 44. The music then transitioned to their 2005 smash hit 'Lose My Breath,' as the trio strutted across the stage. They followed with a mash-up of the two songs before bringing the house down with a rendition of their 2001 chart-topping track 'Bootylicious.' Beyoncé later celebrated the moment with a captionless Instagram photo of the three on stage. In the comments below, fans barely contained their excitement, with many declaring: 'This is everything.' Others, however, couldn't help but surmise that the reunion symbolized something bigger. 'What if Act 3 features EVERYONE she did music with,' one suggested, while a second begged: 'This better be Act iii (cause I still want that rock album lol).' Act III refers to the expected third album in Beyoncé's ongoing musical trilogy, following 2022's Renaissance and 2024's Cowboy Carter. Renaissance featured dance and house beats, while Cowboy Carter was rooted in country music. Fans have speculated that the highly anticipated third album will feature rock music. 'Act 3 is Destiny's Child omg,' another posted on X. 'What if act iii is Destiny's Child reunion tour. You know because there is 3 of them?' a second noted. 'Why she didn't perform DC3 in Houston?' a third questioned, 'which confirmed my suspicions that act:iii will be Rock.' 'Act 3 by @Beyonce is a reunion album with @KELLYROWLAND & @RealMichelleW,' a fourth insisted. 'It's a full circle but feel like it's going to be rock album.' Another said: 'Beyonce brought the girls out at the last concert !!! I'm telling yall that's gone be her final act !!! Dc3 Destiny's 3 or something!!!!! It has to be reboot of destiny childs …… end the trilogy with the TRILOGY YA FEEL ME.' Saturday's Destiny's Child reunion marked their first since Beyoncé's 2018 headlining set at Coachella. Formed in 1990 in Houston by Beyoncé, Rowland, LaTavia Roberson, and LeToya Luckett, the girl group initially enjoyed limited success. They were eventually launched into the mainstream with the release of their 1998 song 'No, No, No,' and their best-selling second album, The Writing's on the Wall (1999), which included top hits, 'Bills, Bills, Bills' and 'Say My Name.' Roberson and Luckett were later replaced in 2000 by Williams and Farrah Franklin. The latter, however, quit after a few months, leaving the group a trio.
