The two artists have unveiled their collaborative remix of Charli's track ‘Guess’, accompanied by a visually striking music video. Directed by Aiden Zamiri, the video features Charli hosting a house party where guests progressively shed their clothes down to their underwear. The scene takes a dramatic turn when Billie Eilish makes a grand entrance, crashing through the house in a bulldozer to deliver her part of the song.
In her verse, Eilish sings, "Don't have to guess the colour of your underwear/Already know what you've got goin' on down there/It's that lacy black pair with the little bows," revealing her awareness of Charli’s lingerie. She continues, "The ones I picked out for you in Tokyo/Saw them when you sat down, they were peeking' out/I'm gonna tell you right now, they're all I'm thinkin' about," adding a personal touch to her lyrics.

The video shifts to an outdoor scene surrounded by industrial buildings, where bras and underwear start raining down. According to a press release, all the lingerie featured in the video has been donated to I Support the Girls. Eilish also delivers a playful and flirtatious version of the chorus, singing, "I wanna try it, bite it, lick it, spit it/Pull it to the side and get all up in it/Kiss it, bite it, can I fit it?/Charli likes boys, but she knows I'd hit it/Charli, call me if you're with it."
Charli initially released ‘Guess’ as part of her album ‘BRAT’, which also included tracks like ‘Hello Goodbye’ and ‘Spring Breakers’ on a deluxe edition. Teasers for the remix began circulating on social media with Charli posting a provocative image and caption, "Guess?" Fans also spotted flyers with the same image and the word "GUESS," leading them to a phone number that played a snippet of the song.
The following day, both Charli and Eilish shared clips from the music video on Instagram. The video opens with Charli asking, "Hey, Billie, you there?" before transitioning to scenes of the artists amidst a pile of women’s lingerie.
Charli’s album ‘BRAT’ achieved a career milestone by reaching No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and has become a summer anthem, with celebrities and public figures, including Katy Perry and Vice President Kamala Harris, participating in related social media trends.
