Addison Rae's Fiery Coachella Debut: 'Suck My D***' to Haters

Addison Rae delivered a powerful and provocative message to her detractors during her Saturday, April 11, performance at the 2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The 25-year-old artist, who rose to fame on TikTok before achieving music success, addressed the crowd with a candid statement, "And to my haters? Suck my d***." This fiery remark punctuated her enthusiastic reception from fans.

Rae's setlist included several of her popular songs, and she surprised attendees by inviting Maddie Ziegler, known for her work on Dance Moms, to perform alongside her. This performance launched Rae's "The Fame and Glory Show" tour, signaling a significant step in her evolving music career.

Reflecting on her journey, Rae has spoken about her deliberate approach to carving out a space in the music industry. She revealed to Rolling Stone in January 2025 her early efforts to build trust with record executives, even without pre-recorded music, by presenting a clear vision through mood boards and presentations.

Rae emphasizes authenticity, aiming to be unapologetically herself on stage despite public perceptions. She acknowledged TikTok's role in her rise but expressed a strong desire for her artistic creations to eventually eclipse the platform's influence, stating she would work diligently for this recognition.

In a December 2025 interview with The Guardian, Rae discussed her complex relationship with fame, describing it as exposing and raw yet acknowledging its accompanying luxuries. She expressed hope that her artistry would be met with kindness and understanding, finding a unique appeal in the idea of never being fully understood.
