Just a day later stating that Brat summer was dead (long live Brat summer), Charli XCX it's already teasing something new.
In a post on X on Instagram On Tuesday (September 3), Charlie shared a cropped photo of two figures — one of which appears to be herself — wearing white tank tops that read 'about king time!' With no caption or additional comment to analyze, fans immediately took to the comments to figure out what the cryptic photo might mean.
Amidst heaps of speculation, a consensus has emerged as fans speculate that the male figure in the photo was none other than Charli's longtime friend and collaborator Troye Sivan. The Australian singer appeared to confirm those suspicions when he shared the same photo no caption on his Instagram account.
Some users concluded that the post was additional marketing for the pair's upcoming joint Sweat tour, which kicks off in Detroit on September 14, with many fans simply writing the words “Sweat tour” under Charli's photo. But a group of commentators speculated that the photo was a tease for something bigger – a finale Brat remix with Sivan ahead of the pair's tour.
“Talk talk remix with troye just in time for the sweat tour,” one fan he wrote under Charli's X post. Other agreedhighlighting fan speculation as to who could feature in a final Brat remix. “I love how the remix rumors went up the pop ladder from lily allen to katy perry to taylor but really it's just troye lmfao,” they wrote.
The rumors surrounding a final Brat remix (following Lorde's 'Girl, So Confusing' remix and Billie Eilish's 'Guess') reached a fever pitch when Charli appeared to confirm another remix was on the way in an August TikTok. “Maybe one more remix after that?” the star captioned her video.
