Charli XCX: Champagne keeps me going

Charli XCX says champagne helps her keep up her stamina.

The 'Boom Clap' hitmaker has admitted a glass off bubbly will keep her going whilst touring all over the world.

When asked how she keeps up the pace on her international tours, she said: "I'm not really sure. I'm running on empty right now. But champagne helps."

The 22-year-old singer may have found worldwide success following the release of her latest album 'Sucker' but the star is far from complacent.

When questioned if she ever had any worries about not being able to carve out a career in music, she added: "Totally. Constantly. It's a rollercoaster. You never know what's coming next."

And Charli particularly enjoys seeing her fans whilst out on tour and recalled a special moment when she spent the day with one of her loyal supporters who was very ill.

Speaking to VH1, she said: "I did a hospital visit once whilst I was on tour. I went to see this little girl who was a fan of mine but who was so sick that she was going to pass away. It was really moving.

"I went to see her to hang out with her for a bit and obviously there was nothing I could do but it was nice for us to be happy together for a moment or two."
