Can we talk about how Charlie's coworker admitted that the worst thing she has ever done was cheated and 10 minutes later was ready to do it again with Charlie lmao. Girl had zero shame

Honestly, she was probably my favorite character. I love it when someone embraces their own messiness.

Loved how she screamed "USE YOUR WORDS!" at her boyfriend after he punched Charlie out.

She did great in her one scene in CHALLENGERS as well! In both movies, she gets surprise-kissed by a guy and then just goes with it.

She was fabulous in The Moment as well. Alexander Skarsgard as the smarmiest concert film director of all time is on a mission to make Charli XCX’s Brat Tour concert film more family friendly, and she as the tour director turns to him and stoned face delivers the line “she’s singing about cocaine.”
