Charli XCX and Billie Eilish play with underwear, big trucks in "Guess" music video

0
The brat summer has now evolved to include playing with big trucks and huge piles of underwear, per a new music video released by musical powerhouses Charli XCX and Billie Eilish this afternoon. After teasing the new single, "Guess"—a remix of a song from the deluxe version of the critically acclaimed album—yesterday, Charli unleashed it on the world today, in all its provocative, very deliberately homoerotic glory.The most memorable moment of the video—from a visual viewpoint, at least—comes about a minute in, when Eilish literally crashes the song by driving a bulldozer into the underwear rave that apparently generates, spontaneously, in any abandoned apartment where Charli XCX cares to roost. (Thus freeing us from our compulsion to wonder who was going to clean up the drink Charli starts the video by casually throwing on the floor, because post-bulldozer, the effort is probably moot.) The most aggressive lyrical moment, meanwhile, is that bit where Eilish croons "Charli likes boys but she knows I'd hit it," after giving an extended verse about how she'd like to "try it, bite it, lick it, spit it, pull it to the side and get all up in it" re: her fellow performer's much-mentioned bloomers. This is not a subtle track, is all we're saying, even as it ends with the pair winking at the whole concept with a final line that invites the listener to "Guess if we're serious about this song."More importantly, for our peace of mind, the credits for the video include a note that the huge amounts of unworn underwear used in the video won't go to waste: They'll instead be donated to survivors of domestic violence via charity I Support The Girls. We'd genuinely been worrying. It's a lot of underwear!
