In a heartwarming twist, pop sensations Charli XCX and Billie Eilish have transformed a prop from their latest collaborative music video into a significant charitable donation. Known for their innovative artistry, the duo recently released the visually striking video for their remix of ‘Guess’, featuring an abundance of lingerie showering down on them. Rather than discarding these garments after the shoot, they chose to donate them to a worthy cause.
Fans who watched the credits of the ‘Guess’ music video noticed a poignant message: “All unworn undergarments will be donated to survivors of domestic violence through I Support the Girls.” This nonprofit organization, as detailed on its official website, “collects and distributes essential items, including bras, underwear, and menstrual hygiene products, allowing women and folx experiencing homelessness, impoverishment, or distress to stand tall with dignity.”
The organization reported that the Guess team donated a total of 1,000 pairs of underwear. The charity took to social media to express their gratitude, stating, “It’s literally @charli_xcx’s birthday today, but she gave us the biggest gift. We are so incredibly grateful for the huge donation of ~10k pairs of underwear and bras from the ‘Guess’ music video with @billieeilish 🩲 Life-changing collab that literally is changing thousands of lives.”
Surprise Collaboration and Music Video Release
Charli XCX and Billie Eilish’s unexpected collaboration has sent waves through the music world. Released on August 1, the ‘Guess’ remix is a chaotic and catchy visual spectacle. The music video depicts a wild house party scene, with a seemingly endless supply of lingerie taking center stage. Adding to the frenzy, Billie Eilish makes a memorable entrance on a tractor, a move that delighted fans and added her unique edge to the video.
The collaboration was officially announced by Charli XCX on Instagram earlier this week. However, fans had already speculated about Billie Eilish’s involvement. A teaser photo posted by Charli featured a cropped image that eagle-eyed fans quickly linked to Eilish by recognizing her distinctive rings. This collaboration has not only created a Billboard hit but also highlighted the artists’ commitment to using their platform for positive social impact.
