“It’s really hard for me to sum up the special connection I felt with such an amazing person who completely changed my life. There are so many memories, so many small details, so many different views and incredible feelings and stories,” she wrote.

“It’s impossible to summarize the journey I went on with Sophie. Even the most insignificant things felt enormous. I can’t explain how I feel and I can’t encapsulate what a unique person she was in one small social media post,” she continued.

“All I can say is that I will miss her terribly; her smile, her laugh, her dancing in the studio, her gentle inquisitive voice, her cutting personality, her ability to command a room without even trying, her incredible vision and mind. She taught me so much about myself without even realizing. I wish I had told her more how special she was, not just her music but her as a person. I love you and I will never forget you Sophie.”

Social media recently came to the support of Charli amid her mourning, which resulted in a mix-up with an influencer.

Charli D’Amelio got a little confused over the weekend on social media.

The 16-year-old TikTok star spotted the hashtag “HereForCharli” trending and thought it was her fans posting comments and affirmations in support of her.

“Your kind words warm my heart i am so lucky to have you all by my side!! i love you bebs,” she wrote back to them.

However, it turns out that the hashtag is for Charli XCX, following the sad passing of avant-pop artist SOPHIE.

SOPHIE was actually a great friend and producer for a few of Charli XCX‘s songs who passed away after an accident in Greece over the weekend.

Many of SOPHIE and Charli‘s fans let Charli D’Amelio know about the confusion. However, her tweet still remains.

“hey girly believe it or not that hashtag actually wasn’t meant for you! i know it might be hard for you to fathom but there are others with the same name as you,” one Twitter user posted.

Another added, “Lmao this hashtag was to comfort Charli xcx after SOPHIE’s passing but now that you’ve said this every tweet is about you. Great.”

British music producer and musician SOPHIE has died at the young age of 34.

The rising star passed away after an accident that took place in Athens, Greece on Saturday morning (January 30), the musician’s publicist announced in a statement.

The statement reads, “It is with profound sadness that I have to inform you that musician and producer SOPHIE passed away this morning around 4am in Athens, where the artist had been living, following a sudden accident. At this time respect and privacy for the family is our priority. We would also ask for respect for her fanbase, and to treat the private nature of this news with sensitivity.”

SOPHIE‘s family also released a statement through the management team.

“Tragically our beautiful SOPHIE passed away this morning after a terrible accident,” they said. “True to her spirituality she had climbed up to watch the full moon and accidentally slipped and fell. She will always be here with us. The family thank everyone for their love and support and request privacy at this devastating time.”

Sophie Xeon was born and raised in Scotland and started releasing music in 2013. The music star’s debut album Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides was released in 2018 and it was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Dance/Electronic Album category. SOPHIE worked with such artists as Madonna, Charli XCX, Kim Petras, and Vince Staples.

SOPHIE was transgender and discussed gender identity while speaking to Paper magazine in 2018.

“Transness is taking control to bring your body more in line with your soul and spirit so the two aren’t fighting against each other and struggling to survive … It means you’re not a mother or a father – you’re an individual who’s looking at the world and feeling the world,” the musician, who did not use gendered pronouns, said.

We’re sending our thoughts and condolences to SOPHIE‘s loved ones during this difficult time.

Courtney Love happily hits the stage during the YOLA DÍA Festival held at the Los Angeles State Historic Park on Sunday afternoon (August 18) in Los Angeles.

The 55-year-old singer was joined by the Chateau Band as they performed a special acoustic set at the festival billed as a “celebration of the arts, culture and music by today’s women.”

Other performers in the line-up alongside Courtney Love were Lykke Li, Cat Power, SOPHIE, Megan Thee Stallion, Kelsey Lu, Empress Of and CupcakKe.

The festival draws its name from sponsor YOLA Mezcal — a female-run mezcal brand based in Oaxaca, Mexico, founded by Yola Jimenez, Li and Gina Correll Aglietti, which employs only women in their hand-bottling facility and sales force.

A portion of every ticket sold benefited the Downtown Women’s Center in Los Angeles.
