Charly Clive is a talented English actress, particularly renowned for her captivating portrayal of Marnie in the popular television series Pure. In 2015, at the young age of 20, Clive's life took an unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor.
In the aftermath of this life-altering event, Clive turned to comedy as a means of coping with her situation. She created a sellout comedy show, cleverly titled Britney, which was inspired by her brain tumor, which in turn was named after the iconic American singer Britney Spears.
According to Clive, she chose the name Britney for her tumor because she wanted it to be memorable and iconic, and what's more iconic than Britney Spears? Clive explained that if she was going to get a tumor, it had to be a little bit fabulous, and thus Britney was the perfect choice.
Clive's remarkable talent and perseverance did not go unnoticed, as she was later nominated as one of the Screen Stars of Tomorrow in 2018. In addition, a television sitcom adaptation of Britney, based on Clive's original comedy show, premiered on BBC Three in November 2021 to widespread critical acclaim.
