Charli XCX plans world domination

Charli XCX is planning on taking over the world.

The British star has already got a head start on her global domination plans, with her songs making the top ten in charts all over the world.

In the past Charli has joined forces with fellow pop stars Rita Ora and Iggy Azalea, but has even more planned for the future.

"I just want to be continuously making killer songs and mind-blowing videos, as well as writing for other artists. I want to change the musical landscape; I think the overall plan is to take over the world. That's basically it," she laughed to British magazine Grazia.

Charli released her third album Sucker in December, her first to make a dent in the charts.

Despite only being 22, Charli thinks her newfound success has been a long time coming.

"Now that it's here I feel like I really deserve it. I know how this world works now, and I'm not going to let people walk all over me. I feel blessed to be in this position, and I've made so many great relationships," she said.

Charli believes very strongly in treating people with respect. It was after a chat with Swedish singer Robyn that Charli realised the importance of being nice to everyone.

"[The best piece of advice I've ever received] was probably from Robyn. We'd just had this epic dance-off in Australia, she is an insane dancer, and I was feeling a bit down and insecure at the time. She said, 'You've just gotta be yourself and be nice to everybody because that's why people think you're cool,'" she recalled.
