Charli XCX faces awkward encounter with Benicio Del Toro: What happened?

Charli XCX was forced to sit through a hilariously awkward encounter with Benicio Del Toro during the pair’s latest appearance on The Graham Norton Show.

The British singer-songwriter, who owns a public Letterboxd profile where she is known to pen her honest thoughts about many a film, was reminded about the time she reviewed One Battle After Another.

Del Toro appeared in the 2025 release alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, Chase Infiniti, Sean Penn, and more, while the performance earned him his current Academy Award nomination.

Despite the revealing attempt, the three-time Grammy winner overcame the moment since she only had great things to say about the film and the Puerto Rican actor.
