Charli XCX 'Boys' by Charli XCX & Sarah McColgan

Luke Bather - 28th July 2017

Charli XCX brings the boys to the yard in her amazing, star-studded clip for well, er, Boys.

Featuring over 60 male celebrities of varying levels of both fame and sexiness, the clip flips the male gaze on its head and objectifies the guys whilst they vamp for the camera in scenarios that range from cool to sexy to downright bizarre. Shot over 16 days between Coachella, LA, London, Seoul and NY, Charli XCX and co-director Sarah McColgan have pieced together an incredibly fun montage here.

Highlights include Tinie Tempah with a dog, Brendon Urie's American Beauty homage and the incredible Riz Ahmed with a big pink teddy bear...
