KATSEYE Eyes Future Collaboration with Charli XCX

Manon, the frontwoman of rising pop sensation KATSEYE, has revealed the group’s ultimate dream collaboration: Charli XCX. Speaking in a recent interview with People, Manon described the British pop innovator as a profound creative influence whose sound and aesthetic have significantly shaped the group’s identity.

“I just recently met her, and we all genuinely hope to collaborate with her again in the future,” Manon shared. “She’s definitely a KATSEYE girlie, and we’re completely enamoured with Brat and everything about her. She’s such an inspiration to us. We don’t know what the future holds, but the idea of working together excites us beyond words.”

The connection between KATSEYE and Charli XCX is more than aspirational. The artists’ creative paths have already intersected: Charli attended KATSEYE’s Los Angeles performance in late 2025, joining Manon and bandmate ADELÁ in photos that quickly circulated on social media. Beyond attendance, Charli is credited as a writer on KATSEYE’s breakout single Gabriela, a track that has been instrumental in the group’s meteoric rise.

Released on 20 June 2025 as the second single from KATSEYE’s EP Beautiful Chaos, Gabriela achieved widespread commercial success and critical acclaim. The song peaked at number 16 on the Billboard Global 200 and entered the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, while also earning a nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. Its journey to KATSEYE was itself notable: originally penned years prior, the song was passed between several artists—including Anitta, Rita Ora, and Little Mix—before ultimately finding its home with the band.

The group’s ambition to collaborate with Charli XCX reflects not only admiration but also a shared artistic sensibility, suggesting that future projects could push the boundaries of contemporary pop music. Fans are eagerly anticipating what this potential partnership might yield, particularly given the prior creative synergy displayed in Gabriela.

With KATSEYE’s rapid rise and Charli XCX’s track record for innovation, the prospect of a full-fledged collaboration promises to be one of pop music’s most exciting developments in 2026.
