She knows just how to beat it when it comes to her nervousness.
Tate McRae, the Canadian pop star, occasionally battles stage fright, but she has found a way to overcome it with the help of pop icons like Michael Jackson. In an interview with W magazine, the "Sports Car" singer revealed her supernatural abilities, including predicting outcomes and sensing people's energies. Before stepping onto the stage, McRae often visualizes her idols standing beside her to boost her confidence.
She recounted her nerves before performing at Lollapalooza 2026, where she painted herself gold, describing it as her most anxiety-inducing moment. "Every intrusive thought goes through your brain," she shared. The interview takes place as McRae prepares to unveil her latest single, "Housewife," on October 15, following her successful 2025 album, "So Close To What," which topped the Billboard 200. Additionally, the star recently launched her debut fragrance, TATE 01.
