Laroi on what Tate McRae does that ‘makes him melt'
The Kid Laroi has revealed the one thing his pop star girlfriend Tate McRae does that makes him weak in the knees, along with a string of other gushing compliments. The 21-year-old Sydney-born star has been dating McRae since January 2024, and he opened up about his relationship with her and the admiration he has for the Canadian. When asked by Elle Magazine if there was anything the Sportscar singer does that 'just makes you melt'. 'That's easy. Every time she smiles, it makes me weak,' he said. The Girls singer also said McRae, also 21, has imparted much wisdom onto him in terms of building a successful career in the music industry. 'She's the hardest-working artist I've ever met in my entire life. And I don't say that because she's my girlfriend. Seeing how hard she works inspires and encourages me to follow along and do the same,' he said. 'There's something really, really motivating about that—and really attractive as well.' Elsewhere in the interview, Laroi, whose real name is Charlton Howard, said that while he thinks he has 'okay style', he 'always' asks McRae for 'opinions'. 'But I think over the years I've definitely got a lot better with my personal style,' he said. 'I think I figured out what I look good in and what I don't.' Tate McRae and The Kid Laroi in Paris.

Once I got over that, I started figuring out what fits me a little better, what I look better in. I'm getting pretty dialled in.' Laroi also said the Greedy singer left him baffled when she couldn't make decisions about food. The couple recently wined and dined together in Paris with views of the Eiffel Tower, before McRae's concert for her Miss Possessive world tour. They were also spotted looking very fashionable on a day out in the City of Love which included a stop at the French Open. McRae has so far performed 16 shows since May in cities across the UK and Europe. She is set to hit the stage in Poland on Friday night. While McRae fans, known as Tatertots, have many more shows to look forward to on her tour that, at this stage, ends in November, fans of Laroi are getting hyped for new music. His new song All I Want Is You is set to drop soon which is the start of the rapper's rollout of new work.

Tate McRae Gets Ultimate Compliment From The Kid Laroi
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. First, there is the coolness of his name: 'Laroi' honors the Kamilaroi people, the indigenous Aboriginal nation from which he descends. And it gets better from there. The 21-year-old rapper—and singer and songwriter—is dating Tate McRae, has new music coming that you'll be listening to all summer, and doesn't forget his roots: A hardscrabble upbringing in Sydney, his devoted mother, and a dream realized through hard work, mix tapes, and talent. Oh, and he smiled for almost every second of this interview. You can do whatever you want to do, as long as you put your mind to it. And it sounds pretty cliché, but I really do believe that. Me believing that as a kid, even if it was semi-delusional, helped me do this. It's pretty crazy as a kid to believe, I'm gonna be a big musician one day! That's a bit of a delusional thought. But there's something about that thought, when you really believe that and come into it, and it was instilled in me by my mum 100 percent. Definitely my girlfriend. She's the hardest working artist I've ever met in my entire life. And I don't say that because she's my girlfriend. Seeing how hard she works inspires and encourages me to follow along and do the same. There's something really, really motivating about that—and really attractive as well. I think Ariana Grande is awesome on a pure, creative level. I love her music, I love her new album. I kind of love everything that she does. Like, she's got it. My girlfriend can never decide what she wants to eat. What do you want to eat? Oh, I don't know. Up to you. Okay, how about this? No. The obvious is to just say it. Which means dropping the pride—that's a big one. The biggest thing I'm learning is that it's not about who's right or wrong, because emotions are sometimes not logical. I think just understanding that feelings exist whether they're logical or not. But I'm also a big flower guy. That's easy. Every time she smiles, it makes me weak. I love to cook. I'm actually supposed to cook tonight. Chicken piccata. That's the request. So I'll do the whole thing—roasted vegetables, a little salad. I make everything, but sometimes I do get a salad from the store and put it in a bowl and make it look nice. Erykah Badu. That's good, chill music. I like a chill, good vibe around the house. I inherited that from my mum. We're homebodies. Sometimes it's nice to go out and do stuff like that, but most times, we'll just be like, 'Yo, should we go out for dinner? Let's just order something. Let's make something. Let's watch something.' The new Black Mirror just came out, so we've been watching that. The new Love on the Spectrum. That's one of the best shows ever—Connor is, like, my favorite person of all time. I like to think I have okay style. I definitely always ask my girlfriend for opinions. My friend Dev is like, probably one of the freshest people I know, so I ask him for advice. But I think over the years I've definitely got a lot better with my personal style. I think I figured out what I look good in and what I don't. I went through a phase when I just wanted to buy designer, with the biggest logos you could see. Once I got over that, I started figuring out what fits me a little better, what I look better in. I'm getting pretty dialed in. A version of this story appears in the Summer 2025 issue of ELLE.
