Charli XCX disappointed with no Little Mix Touch at the BRITs

Charli XCX only attended the BRIT Awards 2017 to see Little Mix perform ‘Touch’ – but the girl group played ‘Shout Out to My Ex’.
The ‘After The Afterparty’ singer was excited to be at the ceremony at The O2 in London on Wednesday (22.02.17) because she wanted to see her favourite girl group – comprised of Jesy Nelson, Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall – belt out there smash hit.
However, the four-piece decided to perform their British Single-winning hit to open the music extravaganza leaving Charli very disappointed.
Speaking to The Sun Online, she said: "I’m really excited to see Little Mix perform, that’s the whole reason why I’m here, I’m literally not doing anything else, I just want to see Little Mix perform ‘Touch’. That’s what I’ve said all night, and they’re not doing it. ‘Touch’ is their best one.
"Little Mix are just great. I’m, like, devastated about that, I just wish they played ‘Touch’, I’m going to cry."
Charli looked sexy and stylish in a purple, frilled, over-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood dress, which is a big change from her usual "stripper store" clothes.
Last week, the 24-year-old pop star revealed she buys most of her clothes from shops that cater for pole dancers.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz, she spilled: "I’m literally just wearing what I had in my suitcase as I just came up back from America so I’m just wearing a load of different stuff. I got this from a stripper store it says ‘Sex Symbol’, it is one in LA from Hollywood Boulevard.
"I get a lot of clothes from stripper stores – there’s some really amazing tailors in there and they make some incredible stuff. I haven’t been into any stripper stores in England, but if anyone knows of any I’ll be sure to check them out. I have a stylist who is really good friends with one of the main people who runs the stripper store in LA and she makes me look like a true stripper, it’s wonderful."
Charli took to Instagram to share two Polaroid photos of her getting ready for The BRITs and thanked everyone who helped her look her best on the red carpet.
She posted: "Shout out all the people who made me feel beautiful tonight at the Brits!!!! @viviennewestwoodofficial @beasweetbeauty @samburnetthair @lisa_tv I LOVE U ALL!!!! (sic)"
