The popular single from the Barbie movie soundtrack is getting its very own video. Charli XCX was recently spotted filming for the upcoming release.

It seems like the Barbie craze will not be leaving any time soon. Fans are beyond excited after pop icon Charli XCX was seen filming her “Speed Drive” music video.

In the photos, Charli is seen posing with a pink car alongside Devon Lee Carson. The license plate features the phrase, “Barbie Land.”

The single has been a hit, gaining more and more popularity since the film’s release. “Speed Drive” even earned the singer her first Billboard Hot 100 entry in eight years. The last time XCX was featured on the Billboard Hot 100 was in 2015 with her single “Break The Rules.”

The news of the upcoming music video has come as a surprise to many fans. Due to the single’s late release, many assumed that a video was out of the picture. Other singles on the album, such as “Barbie World” by Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj and “Dance The Night” by Dua Lipa, had music videos released before the film’s premiere. The star-studded soundtrack was another major factor in promoting a “Speed Drive” music video.

Charli XCX’s single has been praised for how well it fits into the Barbie world. Though the song is short, just under two minutes, it still delivers sound and energy, leaving a lasting impression perfect for the pink-hued world.

According to Alex Gonzalez of Uproxx, “Charli taps into her glimmery, pink energy, giving the Barbie universe the bop of the century.”
