Move over Britney Spears! There's a new pop queen in town dancing in her bra and underwear
The blonde wore a nude-toned bra and underwear as she belted out her new tunes with backup dancers around her on stage.
Rae has served up a dreamy pop album flaunting her 'sensual and sexual' personality.
The 24-year-old social media star has released her long-awaited self-titled debut studio effort featuring the hit singles Diet Pepsi and Aquamarine.
She told Variety of the feelings she wanted to purvey: 'We definitely didn't reference anything making this album. It was always me trying to provoke a feeling from a song or from music.
'I'm a very sensual and sexual person. I'm very intimate with myself and my body, and everything kind of reflects that. Everything feels very personal.'
Addison also shared that having her debut album produced entirely by women was 'really special'.
The singer said working with Luka Kloser and Elvira on the record was 'beautiful and magical'.
She explained: 'I have something really special with these girls. It feels really beautiful and magical that it is just all females.
'I never set out for it to be that way, I think because it's not very common and you almost don't get that opportunity very much to work with just females in a room.'
While she has been labelled the latest 'It girl' in pop, Addison admitted she is wary of the praise.
She said: 'It is obviously very complimentary. What does that even mean, really, to be the pop girl? Let's see if the songs get more popular, then they can call me a pop girl. This is my shot. I've got to go big.'
Meanwhile, Addison - who dropped her debut single Obsessed in 2023 - has spoken about how TikTok was the perfect launchpad for her career.
She told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1: 'I think in the beginning, especially, and starting out, I always knew that I wanted to make music. I always knew I wanted to act. I think I just knew I wanted to perform.
'That was just something that was really obvious to me since I was a little girl.
'When TikTok happened, I was almost like, well, this seems like a really nice way to get myself to Los Angeles first, because I think in Louisiana there wasn't as many opportunities or like possibility, really, to pursue that profession necessarily, unless you just got really, really lucky.'
Addison gained popularity with her dance videos on TikTok in 2019.
And by March 2020, rapper The Kid Laroi caused a buzz when he released a song titled Addison Rae.
Then she made her film debut in 2021's He's All That and released Obsessed two years later.

Spotify to hike prices again for millions worldwide next month – here's how much extra YOU'LL need to pay
The streaming giant is looking to improve its margins CHANGING THEIR TUNE Spotify to hike prices again for millions worldwide next month – here's how much extra YOU'LL need to pay Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SPOTIFY is set to hike its prices again for their millions of worldwide listeners next month. The price of its monthly premium individual subscription will increase from September in select markets. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Spotify has been expanding its library of content to attract more subscribers Credit: Getty The Swedish streaming giant made the announcement on Monday, with subscribers expected to receive an email update explaining the price rise over the next month. Premium individual subscriptions will rise from 10.99 euros to 11.99 euros per month. This will occur in markets including South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region. Spotify achieved its first annual profit for 2024, which can be linked to its previous price increases, as well as cost-cutting efforts in recent years. The company's shares have jumped by nearly 8 per cent this year, and they have gained about 40 per cent so far this year. The number of monthly active users and premium subscribers also increased over the second quarter. However, the company reported a loss during the period due to high taxes related to employee salaries. The price hike comes just months after Spotify showed developments on its "lossless audio" feature which is expected to make bills more expensive. It hopes to make songs sound even better for an extra fee for listeners. Last week, it was also revealed the company is making strict changes to its music app that could see some accounts deleted due to new UK age checks. Spotify's new AI feature lets you ask it to make any playlist for you – but there's a trick to finding it in the app Spotify has started showing popups asking people to confirm their age to access certain content made for adults, such as 18+ music videos. Users can confirm their age by sharing a selfie or their ID, a move which is compliance with new laws of the Online Safety Act. It is designed to protect children from easily stumbling across inappropriate material on the internet. A growing number of creators also are said to be joining the Spotify Partner Program. The programme is designed to help offer podcast creators more options for monetising their content. It has has also enabled the significant increase in video content on the platform for subscribers, according to CEO Daniel Ek. SAVE MONEY ON SPOTIFY One of the best ways to save money on Spotify is sharing. With a Premium Family subscription, you and five others can share the cost. You each get your own Spotify account with your own playlists and everything else, it's just billed from one place. To use Premium Family you have to all be living under the same roof. The plan currently costs £19.99. If you split that six ways, you're looking at £3.33 each, which is a lot less than paying for your own individual subscription at £11.99. Image credit: Getty

‘Unmistakable gentleness': why Pig is my feelgood movie
Michael Sarnoski's Pig is not an obvious feelgood movie. Its hero is a bedraggled hermit named Robin (Nicolas Cage) who lives in the woods with his pet pig. Robin is kind of a tough hang – a sullen misanthrope who just barely tolerates the occasional presence of Amir (Alex Wolff), the young businessman who buys truffles from him. We don't know who Robin was before, but it's clear that life has taken a lot from him already. And then someone steals his damn pig. He sets off to rescue her and soon finds himself drawn into the grubby underbelly of Portland's culinary scene, where chefs and waiters take part in bare-knuckled fights. We learn that Robin himself was once an esteemed chef and, called back into his old world on a quest for vengeance, it briefly looks like Pig is setting him up to be a scruffy John Wick. But, for Robin, revenge is a dish best served with the utmost care. Rather than violent showdowns we get a series of gentle sit-downs. First, he and Amir breakfast on some poorly cooked French toast. Amir tells Robin about his struggles growing up with a domineering father and a mentally ill mother. Robin responds by reminding him that the entire city of Portland is sure to be obliterated by earthquakes soon, so his personal problems really aren't that big a deal. 'You don't have to care,' Robin assures him. It would be easy to mistake that advice for nihilism, to interpret it as encouragement to swear off humanity the way Robin has. Because he's not wrong – even if you avoid the floods, everything you love in life will be washed away eventually. So maybe it's better not to care. But that doesn't quite jive with the rest of the movie. Setting aside the extremely upsetting pig-napping scene, Sarnoski's film is crafted with an unmistakable gentleness. The woodland where it begins is captured in long, patient takes that highlight the delicate play of light and water. Later, a home cooking scene is lit with such a gorgeous amber glow that it feels like a childhood memory. Each image is arranged with the care of a master chef assembling elements on a plate, and the yearning score from Alexis Grapsas and Philip Klein complements it beautifully. In short, this is not a film that's going to tell us not to care. In fact, it's the very opposite. Robin and Amir follow their breakfast with lunch at a hot new restaurant where plates of foam and smoke are accompanied by impassioned spiels about 'the story' each dish tells. Robin summons the head chef and quickly drives him into an existential crisis by asking him simply, kindly, if he actually likes cooking this stuff. Maintaining the monk-like stillness that he carries throughout the film, Robin asks the increasingly frantic chef why he's letting critics who don't matter and customers who'll never think about him again dictate the direction of his life. 'We don't get a lot of things to really care about,' Robin says. What's beautiful about Pig – beyond the tranquil music, soul-soothing photography, offbeat humour and Cage's meditative performance – is that it's a movie about the importance of choosing to care. There's a reason the film closes with a cover of Springsteen's I'm On Fire, where love is described in terms of knife wounds and flames. Yes, caring will open us up to failure and pain. Robin himself is a walking embodiment of all the damage that caring can do to a person. But, over the course of the movie, we see him being slowly brought back to life – first by his fierce desire to protect the one creature he still allows himself to love, and then in a growing ability to care about other people too. There are plenty of movies that provide a more conventional 'feelgood' role in my life. Ponyo paints the screen with pure joy. Airplane! is a barrage of beautifully braindead humour. When Harry Met Sally fits like a wool sweater and Lord of the Rings sweeps you up into a bucolic fantasy world where good always prevails. But I love Pig because it acknowledges all the reasons there are to feel absolutely terrible and then doubles down on the reasons to feel good anyway. We don't get a lot of things to really care about, but the list surely includes nice food, good company, and movies like this. Pig is available on Netflix in the US, UK and Australia
