Charli XCX wows in micro leather hotpants at London festival
Charli XCX commanded attention at her Party Girl Festival on Saturday.
The singer, 32, headlined Lido Field in Victoria Park, handpicking every act on the line-up herself to ensure the perfect vibe.
And when she took to the stage, Charli wowed in leather microshorts emblazened with XCX and a yellow bra with feather detailing.
She paired her look with knee-high boots.
Charli clearly put a lot of effort into her first ever Party Girl festival, as she was seen oozing confidence and writhing around the stage during energetic dance routines.
As she sipped an Aperol spritz, and lit up a cigarette, she performed an array of songs from her Brat album.
She also turned the stage into a club with strobe flashing lights, heavy techno beats and a waterfall.
Amelia Dimoldenberg, known for Chicken Shop Date, performed the viral TikTok dance for Charli's song 'Apple', whilst Swedish artist Bladee hit the stage with Charli for a high-energy performance of the 'Rewind' remix, which sent the crowd into a frenzy.
At the end of the hour-long performance, Charli left fans with a written message displayed on the stage's screen with flashing lights that read: 'Brat' summer is over. But actually… I don't think it is.
'So tell me the truth: Will you hate me if I stick around?
'Because honestly I don't know who I am if it's over. And so… I've decided I want this to last forever. It wasn't just a summer thing… it's a forever thing. Please don't let it be over.'

Poh Ling Yeow drops Logies bombshell as she reveals little-known industry secret about the awards show - after being nominated for the top gong
MasterChef judge Poh Ling Yeow has blown the lid off one of the TV industry's best-kept secrets - revealing that Gold Logie nominees are quietly told weeks in advance, despite the fanfare of a live announcement. Appearing on The Project on Monday night, the beloved culinary star, 51, revealed she was informed of her Gold Logie nomination three weeks ago – and had to keep it a secret from everyone, including her closest friends and family. 'Big Gold Logie nomination,' Sarah Harris teased, before asking how she found out. 'Ah, well, I got, I found out actually about three weeks ago,' she said. 'So I had to… mum's the word, and it was quite hard to keep away from, you know, close friends and family. Uh, but I was really shocked.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Poh recalled being pulled aside after filming an episode of Have You Been Paying Attention? by a Network Ten publicist. 'I'd actually just done Have You Been Paying Attention? and a Channel Ten publicist pulled me aside and said, "Oh, just got a little bit of housekeeping to do"' she explained. 'I was kind of milling around with the comedians – because I'm a bit of a… you know, like hanging out with comedians – and she's like, "Just hang out in the corridor for a bit." 'She sat me down in the boardroom and said, "So…" I thought she was going to leave or I thought it was about her – because I love her. And she goes, "Ah, so yeah, you've been known for…" and I was just so bamboozled. I couldn't believe it.' 'Yeah. I was speechless. I just… yeah. I'm still feeling a little bit odd about it.' When asked if it had sunk in, Poh replied, 'Can't… I can't. It's hard to process.' Her candid admission has stunned fans - as it's the first time a TV star has publicly revealed that Logie nominees are privately informed weeks before the annual 'reveal' to the media. Poh joined the MasterChef judging panel in 2023 and quickly won over audiences with her warmth, humour and no-nonsense approach to food. The news comes just days after Daily Mail Australia revealed that Poh has signed on to return for the MasterChef 2026, putting an end to recent speculation she was preparing to bow out. A spokesperson for the popular chef flatly denied the claims, revealing: 'There's no truth to the speculation. Poh is loving her time on MasterChef and feels like she's found her place.' A spokesperson for the popular chef flatly denied the claims, revealing: 'There's no truth to the speculation. Poh is loving her time on MasterChef and feels like she's found her place.' It follows a report by New Idea earlier this week suggesting Poh was considering leaving the series, prompting executives to quietly begin scouting a new judge to join Andy Allen, Sofia Levin and Jean-Christophe Novelli at the judging table. Among the names floated as a potential replacement? None other than fan favourite Julie Goodwin - the very contestant who beat Poh to win the first season of MasterChef back in 2009.

I thought, "Oh God, this guy's so rude." He was right. I was carrying around a lot of excess weight.' She reflected at the time, 'It's almost like I didn't think of my own needs. I thought of a future child's needs that really inspired me to get healthier.' Rebel is now mother to daughter Royce, who she welcomed via surrogate and co-parents with wife Ramona Agruma. In regards to how she achieved her weight loss, Wilson focused on becoming more active by walking and doing high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with her personal trainer.
