Charli XCX Explains Why She Unfollowed Rina Sawayama Amid Viral Rumors
Charli XCX is speaking out.
The 31-year-old Crash singer-songwriter addressed the fact that she unfollowed her friend and “Beg For You” collaborator Rina Sawayama recently as fans took notice and quickly speculated about the reasons why on social media.
If you didn’t know, Charli is dating George Daniel, a member of The 1975. Back in June, Rina seemingly bashed his bandmate, Matty Healy, onstage during her Glastonbury set, calling out “a white man that watches Ghetto Gaggers and mocks Asian people on a podcast.”

Fans thought that Rina seemingly calling out Matty caused a rift in her relationship with Charli after noticing that Charli unfollowed her on Instagram.
On Wednesday (August 30), Charli spoke out to clear the air.
“look – this all got a bit crazy – me and rina spoke about things on the phone just now. my unfollowing (which happened a couple of weeks ago) was over a personal disagreement between friends which we’ve now spoken about <3," she wrote.
Rina, however, has not yet addressed the situation online.
Charli also recently got in a battle with a Drag Race alum over Kim Petras.
