Addison Rae Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Addison Rae has been everywhere these past few days, but the biggest headline is her noticeable absence from the 2025 VMAs red carpet. While some speculated she was snubbing the awards after not being nominated for Artist of the Year despite dropping a powerhouse self-titled album, Cosmopolitan reports the real reason: Addison is in Berlin performing—proving she’s booked, busy, and fully focused on her music career. In a recent interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, she addressed being overlooked for major categories, staying philosophical about recognition and creative fulfillment, but definitely alluding to how hard she’s worked for her music’s moment. That album, which has become a sleeper hit of summer 2025, features tracks like “Diet Pepsi” and “2 Die 4”—songs already cementing her status as a rising star.

If you’ve been spotting Addison’s iconic looks around LA, it’s likely her own design. She’s just unveiled her collaboration with Lucky Brand: the Addison Ultra Low Rise Flare jeans, which she told Harper’s Bazaar she wanted to feel “fun, hot, and really comfortable.” The collection is strictly U.S.-only for now, but expect to see it everywhere as her fashion influence continues to spike. Her charm is undeniably Y2K-inspired, drawing deliberate Britney Spears comparisons both in style and sound.

Her European tour is also on everyone’s radar. Schön! Magazine named her one of 2025’s artists to watch, praising her successful leap from TikTok’s biggest stages to legitimate pop stardom and collaborations with the likes of Charli XCX and Arca. Live show buzz is intense: reviews from Austin to London rave about her burlesque-inspired stagecraft and bold, fashion-forward sets. AOL reports that her stripped-down “Diet Pepsi” performance at the Grammy Museum recently left even the toughest critics admitting they love it, with Addison herself embracing comparisons to both Britney and Lana Del Rey. She’s also catching high-profile attention in her DMs—pop legend Kylie Minogue recently reached out to congratulate her.

On the business side, Addison’s influence has become a blueprint for rebranding digital stardom into mainstream pop and fashion credibility. Milkbar Digital goes so far as to call her rebrand “the blueprint,” pointing to high-fashion collabs and a peak cool-girl vibe that big brands are eager to harness.

Scrolling through her most recent social media mentions, there’s a surge of excitement for upcoming tour dates both in Europe and North America, fashion collab teasers, and plenty of fans posting about her latest single “Here All Night”—which just dropped and is already being called a heartbreak anthem for the ages. No major public controversies or personal drama have surfaced, though fans and press continue to speculate about her stage name drop: following her debut album, Addison dropped “Rae” professionally and now goes by simply Addison, saying on Blackwell’s YouTube show that “it just makes more sense” and feels closer to her roots.
