TikTok superstar Addison Rae reveals Australian tour details
Hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed debut album, TikTok star turned pop diva Addison Rae will bring her hyper-feminine it-girl hits to Australia in November. The 24-year-old will perform in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney between November 11 and 17 as part of her first-ever world tour – The Addison Tour – which will also see her travel across North America and Europe before the end of the year. The pop star will perform tracks from her debut album Addison, which was released earlier this month and landed at No.4 on the Billboard Top 200 and No.2 on the ARIA Albums Chart. Her music has been widely praised, with critics applauding her ability to nod to pop icons like Madonna and Kylie Minogue, yet still establish her own 'hazy, twilight, cosmopolitan cool' sound. Rae's rapid ascent to pop stardom has been surprising to some given her origins on TikTok. Before releasing her album, she was largely known for posting cute choreographed dance routines on social media – videos that were so well-received, they earned her over 88.5 million TikTok followers. She was also known as Kourtney Kardashian's friend, and even featured in some episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. However, the tides began to turn once she released her EP AR in August 2023, which featured none other than Brat Summer queen Charli XCX. From there, she appeared on stage alongside Charli and Aussie pop prince Troye Sivan, and even featured on one of Charli's tracks (even if you're not a fan of dance-pop, you've still likely heard Rae's piercing scream at the beginning of Von Dutch Remix). This catapulted Rae (who was born in Louisiana, just two hours away from the hometown of Britney Spears) from ring lights to stage lights, and led her to release a string of mega-successful singles like Diet Pepsi and Aquamarine, the former of which became her first song to hit the Billboard Hot 100. Since releasing her album on June 6, Rae has been described as the 'new pop powerhouse' and 'pop music's newest it girl'. No stranger to the camera, she has also performed several times on-screen, including in Netflix's He's All That and Eli Roth's horror film Thanksgiving, which also starred Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy). She was also recently cast in the R-rated live-action hybrid Animal Friends opposite A-list actors like Ryan Reynolds, Jason Momoa, Dan Levy and Aubrey Plaza.

US pop star announces debut Aussie tour but some fans sad
Addison Rae has announced her first ever global headline tour and will make her debut Australian appearance later this year. The 24-year-old pop star will embark on her world adventure on August 26 where she is set to take the stage in Dublin before stopping off in England, Europe and North America. After a Los Angeles concert, Addison will make her way Down Under where she is set to perform three shows to Aussie fans for the first time. The Diet Pepsi singer will be in Melbourne on November 11, Brisbane on November 14 and wrapping up in Sydney on November 17. Unfortunately she has left WA fans feeling disappointed as she has not announced any Perth shows at this stage. Addison's tour comes after the release of her self-titled debut album which features 13 songs and this week debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 and number two on the ARIA Albums Chart. The album has been praised for its experimental sound, something Addison is becoming known for, drawing on inspiration from the 1990s as seen with the cover art.

She celebrated the release with an album party at New York City's iconic The Box, marking her debut live performance earlier this month. The songstress performed latest fan favourite, Fame is a Gun, as well as Diet Pepsi, Aquamarine and more. Addison — who recently announced she was dropping 'Rae' from her name — began to rise in the music industry at the end of last year. She was already an established social media personality, becoming a household name on TikTok in 2019 amassing more than 88 million followers. If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your .

The entertainer grew up a competitive dancer and cheerleader and once dreamed of dancing for the LSU Tiger Girls in the small American town. Frontier Touring members can get tickets for her Australian dates when the presale goes live on Thursday at 10am. General public tickets are available on Friday at 10am.
