"Charli XCX's Brat was prominent in my Peron Playlist and was informative for what the Eva we were creating would be listening to today,"
"My Eva - dancing around in a bra and underwear - felt very Brat. Like in 'Von Dutch', she knows that you're obsessed with her."
"The core of the album is introspection, considering who the artist is underneath and how they relate to the rest of the world outside. It's a deep exploration of what it means to be a woman in the public eye."
Rachel Zegler drew on Charli XCX's 'Brat' to inform a contemporary portrayal of Eva Perón, citing the album's introspection and brattiness as relevant influences. She connected the Jamie Lloyd staging — Eva dancing in bra and underwear — to the album's provocative tone and a persona that courts obsession. Zegler's playlist also included The Last Dinner Party, Marina, Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga's 'Paparazzi', and Addison Rae. She observed notable parallels between Charli XCX's 'Fame Is a Gun' and 'Buenos Aires', using contemporary pop to examine how a woman in the public eye performs identity.
