Caption: Charli XCX admits the lie she told parents to attend raves as a teen. The 32-year-old singer hosted Saturday Night Live over the weekend and shared insight into the start of her career. She revealed that she would lie to her parents about where she was going at night to hoodwink them into driving her to raves. The Beg For You singer explained, "I actually started performing when I was really young, and I played at my first rave when I was 15 years old.” "My parents actually drove me there. And, if you're wondering how did I get my parents to drive me to a rave? Well, I just told them, 'Guys, I've got swim practice. At 2:00 A.M.’" The star also joked, "(I am) a triple threat, which in England means I sing, I drink, and I smoke”. Owning the stage on the comedy show, she offered a definition of what 'Brat' means - as the title of her latest album dominated the summer "So many people have asked me, 'What is brat?' and honestly, it's just like an attitude, it's a vibe.” “Martha (Stewart) gets mad about an old magazine article and she says that she's glad the journalist who wrote it is dead - that is brat. And then last Friday, when that exact journalist responded and said, 'Hey, 'I'm alive...' - that is extremely brat.” Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
