With a new album from Sabrina Carpenter to Tate McRae's tour videos going viral, pop music is having a serious comeback. And now, TikTok-famous Addison Rae is launching her own music career in the genre. The singer, 24, just released her debut album Addison on June 6, 2025 which includes hits such as "Diet Pepsi," "Aquamarine" and "Headphones On."
While doing her press tour for the album, people can't help but notice Addison Rae's decision to go with a no makeup look. Pro makeup artist Michaeline Becker thinks the pop star going virtually makeup-free on her press tour is a symbolic decision, especially given the fact Addison Rae is known to rock a glam makeup style.

"She's showing up to interviews with raw skin, undone hair, and for a pop star, especially when you're introducing yourself to the world musically for the first time, it's pretty unheard of."

Of course, there is another pop star that comes to mind with taking bold career risks–the endlessly iconic Britney Spears. And, of course, fans did not miss the chance to compare Addison Rae to Spears.
"Very Britney," one person commented on Becker's TikTok discussing Addison Rae's makeup free press tour.
So, what exactly is the symbolism behind Addison Rae's makeup-free press tour? Becker has an intriguing theory.
"She is sending a message that she doesn't need glam or to be packaged in any type of way to be seen, heard and taken seriously," Becker said. "It's like the anti-pop pop rollout."
