Tate McRae on The Success of “Greedy,” Her Favorite BBMAs Moment & More | Billboard Music Awards 2023

Tate McRae:

I think that’s dedication.

How is your relationship with your fans?

Tate McRae:

I feel like I’m really close to my fans. I feel like we just have a very, like, close friend vibe. They’re always, like, whenever I do performances, and I see them, I see a lot of the same people at these kinds of performances, and I feel like they just, like, make me so comfortable and calm, and it’s just the best feeling when I get to look at them and sing with them.

Why do you think “Greedy” resonated so much with your audience?

Tate McRae:

I don’t think people really expected me to release a song like this. I didn’t expect me to release it. I mean, I was deciding for forever on what song I wanted to come back from, like, a 10-month break from. And I think also, people weren’t expecting me to dance like I did in the music video. And I think it was just a little shocking, but it also just feels like a switch-up in my personality. And I think my fans are ready to see, like, a more confident, like, bad–s side of me. And yeah, it just feels very exciting starting the album, with that kind of energy, going into it.

Do you have a favorite Billboard Music Awards memory?
