Tate McRae turned a fashion runway into a concert stage. The 23-year-old performed at the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Sunday, October 18, at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California. She opened with the first-ever live performance of her new single “Housewife,” which she released just days earlier. yahooyahoo
The performance
McRae performed the full song in a red lingerie set, slowly walking down the catwalk with a group of backup dancers in matching crimson outfits. She followed it with “Dear God” and “Sports Car.” While the second wave of models walked the runway under amber lighting, she stayed on stage in flowing, sheer red wings. The extended set combined the high-energy choreography she’s known for with the glamour of the show. Tate McRae Sings ‘Housewife’ at Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2026 +3

What she said beforehand

About “Housewife”
The song dropped on October 15, with a video directed by Pierre-Ange Carlotti showing McRae living it up on a luxury yacht and by a pool at a large estate. It flips the traditional housewife idea, with McRae saying she wants to be rich enough to be her own housewife. It’s the lead single of her fourth studio album. It’s her first major release since her 2025 album “So Close to What,” which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Tate McRae Out-Angels the Angels at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show +3
