Charlie XCX has said that the criticism he has received on social media lately has affected his mental health.
The singer-songwriter, who launches their fifth album ‘Crash’ on March 18, he issued a statement on Twitter yesterday (February 10) to explain that he is temporarily withdrawing from the platform due to the “negativity” surrounding his current campaign.
“I’ve always had a pretty open dialogue with you guys, so I just want to bring up a few things that have been on my mind recently,” Charli began.
“I’ve been feeling like I can’t do anything right at the moment. I know social media isn’t exactly a haven for kindness and positivity, but overall I’ve always felt pretty safe with you guys here.”
He continued: “I’ve noticed lately that some people seem pretty mad at me, about the song choices I’ve chosen to release, about the way I’ve decided to launch my campaign, about the things I need to do to fund what’s going to be the biggest tour ever.” I have done, for things I say, things I do, etc.
“I’ve been dealing with my mental health quite a bit over the last few months and it obviously makes negativity and criticism harder to deal with when I come across it and of course I know this is a common struggle for most people. in this day. and age.”
