  "account": "Pop singer Tate McRae is transitioning from her \"Sports Car\" persona to a more domestic role. She revealed her upcoming single \"Housewife\" on social media, with the release set for October 15. The single's artwork depicts McRae in a red bikini, standing next to a stroller filled with money. The post simply read: \"Housewife. Out 10.15,\" followed by a diamond ring emoji. Tate McRae hinted at this new era during her Lollapalooza headlining set in August. She concluded her performance by submerging herself into a bathtub filled with glittering gold paint, creating a dazzling finale that became a standout moment of the festival. This dramatic move seemed to fit into her ongoing theme of transformation and the mythology of pop stardom. McRae's third studio album, \"So Close to What,\" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in March 2025, marking the first for her to achieve this feat. The album yielded 11 tracks on the Billboard Hot 100, with \"Sports Car\" peaking at No. 16. Following this triumph, McRae released \"What I Want\" with Morgan Wallen, which topped the Hot 100 chart in May 2025 and marked her first number-one single. She subsequently achieved another top 10 hit with \"Tit for Tat,\" which reached No. 3. She was also honored as Billboard's Hitmaker recipient at the 2026 Billboard Women in Music awards.",
