Tate McRae Wins Two MTV VMAs With ‘Just Keep Watching’

Tate McRae is one to keep watching.

Last night (September 7), the pop singer — who is currently on a sold-out arena tour — won two awards at the MTV Video Music Awards.

“Just Keep Watching,” off the F1 movie soundtrack, earned the hotly debated Song of the Summer and Best Editing. On the Billboard Canadian Hot 100, the track is at No. 32, after spending 32 weeks on the chart.

Neither award was televised, but McRae’s reaction to winning Song of the Summer was captured on TikTok.

“I’m so excited. I mean, this is crazy,” she shared with the host. “I just feel very blessed and honoured to be here. The vibes are good.”

McRae was the only Canadian to take home an accolade from the fan-voted award show and the sole homegrown act to grace the stage last night.

Making her VMAs debut, she performed a medley of “Revolving Door” and “Sports Car” off her No. 1 album, So Close to What. The latter song is currently charting on the Canadian Hot 100 at No. 27.

After performing a string of Canadian shows on her Miss Possessive World Tour last month, McRae is embarking on U.S. dates, which resume in Atlanta, Georgia, on September 9.

In an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight, McRae shared the excitement of her first-ever arena tour.

“It’s been magical. It’s my first-ever arena tour. It’s such a joy, we have like 36 shows left. We’re barely making a dent, but it’s been unbelievable,” she shared.

“I’m exhausted. We had a show literally last night in Philadelphia, but we’re good and got through it.”
