Charli XCX Invites Rose McGowan to "Break the Rules" at Prom in Brand New Music Video

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Aug 25, 2014) - WATCH: http://youtu.be/ABhDiXbUaBE

PRE-ORDER: http://smarturl.it/Sucker

"I was inspired by movies like 'Jawbreaker 'and 'Carrie' for the 'Break the Rules ' video. I never went to prom when I was at school so this was kind of me living out my weird fantasy of what prom would be like in my head. I asked Rose McGowan to be in the video and I never ever thought she would say yes, but she did... so she came to prom too... And she trashed it. ;)" - Charli XCX

Coming off an exciting weekend at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards, where the 22 year old singer + songwriter performed her smash single, " Boom Clap " during the pre-show and scored five nominations for her two summer hits (including " Fancy " which she co-wrote with Iggy Azalea); Charli XCX drops a new video for her latest single, " Break the Rules " arriving on her sophomore album, " Sucker " out October 21 ^st via Neon Gold/Atlantic Records. The video accompaniment for the sweet rebel anthem features cameos from Rose McGowan as well as gal-pal Kitten front-woman Chloe Chaidez. Catch the prom scene here: http://youtu.be/ABhDiXbUaBE .

Over the last 18 months Charli's rise to international pop stardom has been nothing short of meteoric. From releasing her dark-pop record " True Romance" in 2013 to a wealth of critical acclaim, Charli has toured the globe with the likes of Coldplay and Ellie Goulding, written and featured on one of 2013's biggest hits ' I Love It' with Swedish duo Icona Pop , co-written and featured on the global, four million-selling hit 'Fancy' with Iggy Azalea , scored a UK and US Top 10 hit with 'Boom Clap' + more.

" Boom Clap ," " Fancy " and " I Love It " combined have sold over 14 Million copies worldwide.

"Charli XCX and her pop-perfect hooks have been just a little busy for the past two years, propelling artists like Icona Pop and Iggy Azalea up the charts. Now, after the success of ' I Love It' and 'Fancy ,' it's Charli's turn to do some hit-making of her own." -- USA TODAY

"If her new song is any indication, 'Sucker' could be the British star's breakout album that ushers her proper arrival." -- THE FADER

"If Charli XCX's 2014 had ended yesterday it would have been an unequivocally successful year for the singer/songwriter, but there's still three and a half months to go, and today, Charli put another notch in the win column with the release of 'Break the Rules ' -- one of the most straightforward songs she's ever recorded, and one of the best. There's some Joan Jett in here, and some Skrillex, and it's f***ing awesome." -- STEREOGUM
