Charli XCX has joked her chances are slim of recording a song for a James Bond film as she sings with ‘too much auto-tune’.
The Grammy winner, 33, who is known for her electropop music style, said on The Julia Cunningham Show she doesn’t think she’s suited for the 007 franchise.
She explained: ‘I got to say, I don’t think that I am built for that. I think I probably sing with too much Auto-Tune to do a James Bond. Never say never.
‘I’m open to it if they want to call me, which they won’t but, yeah. I think it might not be a fit, but that’s, well, yeah. It’s not going to happen now, is it? So amazing. I don’t know.’
It comes as the British singer’s highly anticipated film The Moment, about her career-defining BRAT era is set to be released next month.
At the Los Angeles premiere on Thursday, Charli modeled a tight gray corset styled with a black PVC bra and matching hot pants.

She carried a funky faux fur shawl in one hand as she strutted her stuff on the red carpet with fans cheering on from the sidelines.
To complete her premiere look, the UK-born star slipped on sheer tights and black heels.
She was joined by Kylie Jenner who flashed her enviably toned midriff in a ruffled sleeveless blouse as she posed on the red carpet outside LA’s Fine Arts Theatre.
The mother-of-two styled the unique top with a low-rise black maxi skirt made of silky fabric.
The Moment, which Charli previously described as a ‘tour mockumentary,’ premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, over the weekend.
The film follows Charli in the lead up to her first headline tour and explores her personal and public narratives.
Through the scripted scenes it shows how subculture is transfigured by commercial success, with record executives contemplating how they can make it a ‘brat summer forever’.
Kylie plays herself in the satirical movie, which was announced last October.

The trailer, which dropped in December, combines concert footage with scripted scenes that feature Hollywood stars Alexander Skarsgård and Rachel Sennott.
In the opening scene, Charli asks: ‘Don’t you just think the whole, like, “Keep having a Brat Summer!” thing is a bit cringe?
‘The label is like, “More Brat, Brat, Brat, Brat, Brat, forever,” and you know, maybe they are right. Urgh for f***’s sake.’
The musician visibly struggles with fame and adds: ‘Everyone’s so desperate for me to be f***ing innovative all the time. And f***ing cool!’
Jenner then chimes in: ‘The second people are getting sick of you, that’s when you need to go even harder.’
The Moment is slated for nationwide release on February 6. However, select theaters in the United States will kick off The Moment premieres on January 30.
Thursday’s premiere in LA proved to be a star-studded occasion as the biggest names in music and film flocked to the Fine Arts Theatre, which is located in Beverly Hills.
The Moment is currently screening in limited release. The film, from director Aidan Zamiri, is slated for nationwide release on February 6.
