Charli XCX has admitted she wants to leave a legacy and has a ''real drive'' to have her own ''empire''.
The 'Boom Clap' hitmaker is keen to use her ''business mind'' to develop an ''empire'' that doesn't just include her musical talent.
She said: ''I have a business mind, I have a real drive - I want to have an empire.
''I want to have more of a legacy, and I think just because I wear what I wear, and am a pop star, doesn't mean I can't have that.''
The 22-year-old singer also admitted she enjoys having power and is extremely driven.
She added: ''Power gets me off. I always want more than I have.''
But Charli has insisted she isn't bothered about being a ''picture-perfect pop star'' and doesn't worry about pretending to be having a good day for the sake of the paparazzi.
She told Maxim magazine: ''I'm not good at being a picture-perfect pop star, happy all the time. If I'm having a bad day, I can't pretend.''
Meanwhile, the beauty previously admitted she loves heading out on tour and would gladly sleep in a bin whilst on the road, as long as she was given some champagne.
She said: ''On my last tour I took my childhood best friend and I hired another of my best friends as my assistant. I enjoy touring. I'm the opposite of a diva.
''Would I sleep in a bin? As long as I've had some champagne, then probably, yeah.''
