Boys

There are plenty of songs about girls, but not as many about boys. Charlie XCX helps even the balance on this track, where she sings about the boys she keeps on call all over the world.

Directed by Charlie XCX herself, alongside Kendrick Lamar collaborator Sarah McColgan, the song's music video features a huge amount of famous male musicians mugging for the camera. As Charli XCX sings about how her "head is spinning thinking 'bout boys," the clip is filled with the guys participating in an assortment of often bizarre activities. We see Mac DeMarco licking a guitar, Brendan Urie reclining on a spread of red rose pedals, and a shirtless Diplo surrounded by puppies. The British songstress even makes a quick appearance near the end, sporting a drawn-on mustache. Speaking with BBC Radio 1, Charli XCX explained how the visual represents a complete gender role reversal. "They're basically doing all the sexy things that girls usually do in videos," she said. "I was like, look I want to make this video, I'm directing it, I'm not in it. I just want to kind of flip the male gaze on its head and have you guys do the sexy stuff."
