Why Addison Rae Is 'Hesitant' to Share Videos of Her Personal Life Now Despite Rising to Fame on TikTok

Addison Rae has thoughts about sharing videos of her personal life after experiencing TikTok fame.
In an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 on Wednesday, June 4, the "Fame Is a Gun" artist opened up about how she can be "protective" about what footage is shared.
"You know, I actually don't mind people experiencing me in a very honest and open way," Rae, 24, began. "Really, any space as long as it is right here. I will allow anyone in my space."
She continued: "I actually don't even mind a camera when I know that the moments are intimate for the people that are experiencing it. I think when you start allowing people to see this footage or to see you in those spaces with zero — you have zero — there's not enough to communicate really."
That's when Rae can find it "very one-dimensional."
"To me, I definitely am a little bit more hesitant of that because I think people can so quickly turn things into a way that they weren't...." she said, noting that is when she becomes "protective."
"Even for my past few music videos, we've had somebody filming the entirety of the day and getting the good moments, the bad moments, the diva moments, the silly moments, whatever it may be," said Rae, adding that after watching the footage back, she wasn't sure if she wanted to share it because "it is intimate and it is personal and it's in a way that I don't want to allow somebody else to spin it into something that it's not because I know what it is, and the people that are there know what it is."
Ultimately, the "Headphones On" singer doesn't want to invite "an evil perspective."
"I think sometimes people will do that, not even for any real reason other than the fact that they're jealous or because they're like, no, you look really happy in that. There's something deeper. There's something more," said Rae.

This Korean Shampoo Doubles As Hair Perfume & Actually Delivers Results
All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission. As someone who doesn't get a trim as often as she should (I'm growing my hair out, okay?), I expect a lot from my humble shampoo and conditioner. I want them to cleanse my scalp and strands of the daily lashings of dry shampoo, not to mention smooth frizz, minimise split ends, boost shine and make my lengths smell incredible. I don't think that's a tall order, especially given how far haircare tech has come. But it's my job to test these products out, and you'd be surprised how many brands underdeliver. So when I heard that Kundal — Korea's number one shampoo brand — had just landed at Boots, I sat up, took note, and headed straight to TikTok to see what all the fuss was about. While Korea's skincare continues to enjoy the spotlight, it's now haircare's turn to shine, with Kundal taking centre stage. On TikTok, the hashtag #Kundal now has over 17.3K posts and counting, many racking up tens of thousands of views, likes and comments. The consensus? It's one of the best-smelling — yes, smelling — hair brands out there. According to the brand's legions of fans, hair perfume has nothing on Kundal's shampoo range, which features fragrances like White Musk (clean, soft, and powdery), Cherry Blossom (lightly floral and refreshing) and Violet Muguet (sweet and slightly green). There are also matching conditioning treatments, a scalp tonic and a post-wash serum, all of which smell just as good. In fact, some are even filming themselves 'blind' reviewing the collection based on scent alone. It seems the most popular scent is White Musk — a warm 'skin scent' with a spicy, intimate edge. As luck would have it, White Musk was the fragrance that landed on my desk, namely the Honey & Macadamia Shampoo White Musk, £14.99, and the Honey & Macadamia Protein Treatment White Musk, £14.99. It's not all hype — they do smell incredible. Hours after using the shampoo and treatment, my partner walked into a bathroom that smelled like a high-end spa. He was convinced I'd spritzed on perfume before bed. Nope, just my hair. Ask any fragrance obsessive how to smell good all day, and I bet they'll recommend a hair perfume. Unlike regular fragrance sprayed on skin or clothes, hair perfume really lingers, and the natural movement of your lengths means you catch heavenly wafts throughout the day. But here's the thing: A lot of them contain alcohol, which can be drying on already parched or fragile strands. The beauty of Kundal's hair collection is that it's not all scent over substance; the incredible fragrance is suspended in a handful of nourishing ingredients. I'll start with the shampoo. The ingredients list boasts an abundance of smoothing, shine-enhancing plant oils, including coconut, avocado, macadamia and jojoba oils. Then there's ultra-moisturising shea butter to reduce dryness and frizz, plus mild surfactants like lauryl hydroxysultaine to cleanse the scalp and strands without stripping. Don't underestimate it, though. The lather is rich and creamy, and I only need to shampoo once, rather than twice like usual. My hair always feels light and clean, not weighed down or greasy. It's been two days since I last washed my hair, and I can still smell the subtle, powdery, musky scent on my strands. Then there's the protein treatment, a favourite among people with all hair types — especially those with type 4 natural hair, who love its moisturizing benefits. One content creator even called it ' life-saving ' for her curls. I have fine hair, but a lot of it, and I use the treatment as a conditioner, letting it work its magic for around five minutes. As the name suggests, the star ingredients are proteins, particularly hydrolyzed soy protein, hydrolyzed keratin, and silk amino acids. Certified trichologist Angela Onuoha had previously told me that, in haircare, proteins are considered a type of conditioning agent, and that every hair type can benefit from them to help protect and temporarily repair hair from heat damage and environmental stressors like harsh weather and pollution. @thatssotrending I'm on a healthy hair journey. @KUNDAL US is making it easier for the natural hair community. My type 4 hair felt so good after using these products! 💜💜💜 #kundalxbeautyko #kundal #naturalhairtiktok #type4hair #curlyhairproducts #washday #healthyhairjourney #haircare #haircareproducts #koreanbeauty ♬ original sound - Jacobdior Onuoha explained that most proteins latch onto the surface of hair strands, forming a protective film that smooths the hair shaft. The result? Softer, shinier-looking hair. The proteins in this treatment are 'hydrolysed' — essentially broken down into smaller molecules. Onuoha also noted that hydrolysed proteins can potentially penetrate the hair shaft to help strengthen it from within, offering further protection against damage. I judge a treatment by how it makes my hair feel when I rinse it out, and I was surprised by how silky it was, not to mention how easily it disappeared. Most treatments leave behind a greasy residue, but this felt more like a lightweight conditioner that left my hair — especially my very split ends — feeling soft and looking a hell of a lot healthier. Of course, a good hair oil helps, too. I absolutely love Kérastase Gloss Absolu Glaze Drops Hair Oil, £38.80, and while it's the most expensive product in my routine, a little goes a very long way. Speaking of price, I was surprised to learn that Kundal's 500ml shampoo and treatment are just £14.99 each. Suppose you're using one pump of each — my maths is a little rusty, but I think that works out to around 6p per pump. Considering the incredible fragrance, not to mention the megamix of expert-approved ingredients, I'd say the brand is well worth the money. Better still, it's available on the high street at Boots. My advice? Grab a shampoo and treatment duo before they sell out — and if TikTok's fragrance enthusiasts have anything to do with it, they certainly will.

Addison Rae's Long-Awaited Debut Album ‘Addison' Is Here
Addison Rae's debut album Addison is here. With her first full-length project, she's also releasing the video for her latest single 'Times Like These.' Rae's Addison comes a year since she first began teasing new music. Last June, she posted a video of her underwater as the then-unreleased track 'Aquamarine' played over it. Lead single 'Diet Pepsi' was dropped in August, with 'Aquamarine' officially arriving a couple months later. Ahead of the album, she unveiled five total songs off the LP, all with their own videos.

The visual was directed by photographer Ethan James Green. Rae's debut album was written and produced by Rae with Elvira Anderfjärd and Luka Kloser, both of whom are Max Martin's protégées. 'We were both shocked [that] her taste leaned very left and underground at times,' Kloser told Rolling Stone in Rae's cover story earlier this year. Addison arrives nearly four years after Rae first tried to make the jump from TikTok stardom to pop. She released her first single 'Obsessed' in 2021, which ended up not taking off as she hoped. She ended up scrapping her first EP, but after the songs leaked and generated buzz online, she put them out in 2023. Rae has since signed to Columbia Records. Before unveiling her solo songs, she further cemented more Main Pop Girl points by appearing on a remix of Charli XCX's 'Von Dutch.'

Billy Joel's Once-'Maligned' First Wife Breaks Her Silence on Their Marriage 43 Years After Their Divorce (Exclusive)

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE at the Tribeca Festival premiere of Billy Joel: And So It Goes at the Beacon Theatre on Wednesday, June 4, Elizabeth Weber — who was married to the rock icon for nine years until 1982 — opens up about how "great" it was for her to revisit that period of her life. "It was great then, it's great whenever I think about it, and it's great now," says Weber, 76. The two-part documentary, directed by Susan Lacy and Jessica Levin, was the first time she had spoken publicly about their years together. Weber credits her granddaughters for getting her involved with the project. "I love Steve and I worked with him, and he's a close friend of I thought, 'Wait a second. I have a really nice life. I have a lot of privacy,'" she recalls, noting she wished she could say that it was because of Cohen that she "immediately" agreed to do the project. However, that wasn't what happened. "Susan approached me in a very personal way, and it resonated with me, and Billy licensed the music, so I knew that there would be good music," Weber recalls. "So it felt right — and it still does." Steve Cohen, the documentary's executive producer, tells PEOPLE it was "crucial" that Weber was involved in the project. "Elizabeth and I have a friendship that has lasted since we first met," he says. "She was there at the very beginning when I got hired, and...I will tell you, there was reluctance in the beginning because she's been out of the public eye and she's been maligned incredibly in the blogosphere." Cohen, however, knew the story wouldn't be "complete" without her. He worked hard to bring Weber together with Lacy and Levin.
