- Charli XCX released the song and video for "Camera" as the final pre-release single from her album "Music, Fashion, Film," which drops Friday.
- "Camera" stars Vincent Cassel on a film set in the aftermath of a fiery car crash, with Charli directing from behind the camera.
- The video was directed by Aidan Zamiri, a frequent collaborator who previously helmed Charli's "The Moment" short.
- "Music, Fashion, Film" is positioned as Charli's formal follow-up to Brat and her second album of the year, following the Wuthering Heights soundtrack.
- The rollout sequence ran from "Rock Music" through a pair of B-sides, then "SS26" and "Wink Wink," arriving at "Camera" as the final pre-album drop.
- Charli XCX launches the Music, Fashion, Film Tour with Underscores in September.
Why it matters: With "Music, Fashion, Film" arriving Friday, Charli is closing out a year that already delivered Brat and the Wuthering Heights soundtrack—and the September tour with Underscores, plus a Vincent Cassel-starring video, positions the album as a high-profile continuation rather than a quick follow-up.
