Charli made headlines last summer for her album Brat

On Saturday, she thrilled fans with her 7.15pm performance on the Coachella stage.

Though Charli, whose real name is Charlotte Aitchison, peformed on the mainstage, she was not the main headliner.

Instead it was rock band Green Day who headlined.

Showing off her very savage accessory at a wild desert after-party, Charli looked overjoyed as she made the statement.

She could be seen wearing a sash that said: “Miss should be headliner.”

The sash and its wording was seemingly a jab at Green Day, the actual headliners.

FANS REACT TO CHARLI'S STUNT

Fans were divided by Charli's stunt, with many quick to voice their views on social media.

One person said: “the green day shade??”

While another slammed: “Who even listens to Green Day in 2025.”

“Ain’t no way she really thinks she’s bigger than Green Day,” said another who was not on Charli's side.

A fourth person on X then said: “Imagine being so delusional and thinking you’re better than Green Day.”

“No one listens to that 2024 album anymore, next,” penned a fifth.

While a sixth said: “I don't think she was shading green day directly but let's be honest, charli is not headliner material (yet) either way.”

The star, who won five gongs at the Brit Awards earlier this year, plays a promising singer on the cusp of hitting the big time.

Insiders told Flying Eze that the scriptis autobiographical and inspired byCharli’smammoth success with her sixth album Brat.

The lead character is even named after herself.

A source told us: “Charli is basically playing herself in The Moment and it’s inspired by her story.

“It tells of a pop star who is preparing for her first headline arena tour, and will show fans exactly what goes into something like that — and how it affects the person at the centre of it all.

“Brat ended up becoming a cultural movement and thefilmwill take in the impact this had on Charli and on the industry.

“She’s been filming for the past few days in London and has shown herself to be a decent actress.

“But that’s not too challenging when your character is you.”
