By Top 40 pop star standards, Charli XCX isn’t afraid to make absurd, potentially polarizing creative choices, like hiring the absurd, potentially polarizing Eric Wareheim to direct her “Famous” music video. I really like Tim & Eric, and I really like Charli (give her album Sucker a shot; it’s fun, bratty mall-punk), so I really like the video, but I’m not sure how the average 13-year-old would respond to it, basically turning into an episode of Black Mirror.
Minus the pig sex. Where’s the emoji for that?
