Charli XCX Shouts Out Matty Healy’s Fiancée Gabbriette in First Few Seconds of ‘Brat’

At this point, Charli XCX should just officiate Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel’s wedding. The “Von Dutch” singer is permanently tied to the 1975 frontman and model’s love story following Wednesday’s (June 12) news that the couple are engaged — starting with the fact that Charli mentions Gabbriette in the first few seconds of her new album Brat.

On the LP’s opening track, “360,” Charli uses Gabbriette as an example of an effortlessly cool tastemaker, singing, “I went my own way and I made it/ I’m your favorite reference, baby/ Call me Gabbriette, you’re so inspired.”

Bechtel also stars in the “360” music video alongside several other internet “it girls,” such as Julia Fox, Rachel Sennott and Emma Chamberlain. In the eclectic visual, she repeatedly hits a vape, poses next to a man lying in a gurney and tells Charli to “fulfill the prophecy of finding a new hot Internet girl.”

The “Fancy” singer is also connected to Bechtel through their respective romances. Charli got engaged to The 1975’s George Daniel in November, which means both women are marrying into the band family.

Everything came full-circle, though, when Bechtel announced her engagement to Healy by posting a photo of her ring taken at Charli’s Brat release party in Brooklyn on Tuesday night. The influencer wrote in her caption, “MARRYING THE 1975 IS VERY BRAT.”

Healy’s mother, Loose Women host Denise Welch, later confirmed the news on her talk show Wednesday morning, according to People. “I have known for a few weeks that Matty got engaged,” she said. “Black diamond [ring], he had it made for her. I couldn’t be more thrilled. We couldn’t be happier — she is everything I would want in a daughter-in-law.”

Charli and Bechtel were friends long before the latter started dating Healy in September, however. In 2019, the “Boom Clap” artist cast Bechtel as the lead singer of Nasty Cherry, a now-inactive girl group assembled in the Netflix documentary I’m With the Band.
