The singer stormed the charts with her Iggy Azalea collaboration – Fancy – and now Charli XCX has scooped an NME Award for best Dancefloor Filler. But she’s not let the award go to her head just yet.
Last year she topped the US singles chart with Fancy – the last British girl to top the American charts was Adele.
When heat asked what she thought of being compared to the likes of Adele, she replied: “I've never heard that ever, EVER. I'm a terrible singer compared to Adele so that's amazing but I've never heard that before but I'll take that for sure.”
