If only she could be as flexible as me.” In sincerity, getting to know Tate has been a special experience for me. I’ve witnessed her quiet confidence, and how genuinely present she is. I’ve watched her listen closely to the world around her and truly absorb moments that inspire her. I’ve seen her brain working and her soul expanding. She is tender and deeply kind. My favorite moments, though, are when I catch a glimpse of the precious young girl whose dreams are manifesting before her eyes—this year, _So Close to What_ became her first album to debut at No. 1—and whose hard work and discipline are paying off. The young woman who is alive and excited and has universes of talent pulsing through her veins. Then she is on stage, and she is a force. She is high voltage. She is wild yet precise. Tate is magnetic. I can’t wait to watch her artistry unfold and evolve while she sinks further into the DNA of pop music. Thank god I taught her how to do the splits. _Johnson is an actor_  Photograph by Tyrell Hampton for TIME [_Click here to order your copy of the 2025 TIME100 Next_](https://magazineshop.us/T100NEXT25) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Article","@id":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/"},"headline":"Tate McRae","datePublished":"2025-09-30T10:48:25.000Z","dateModified":"2026-08-04T07:24:38.155Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/","keywords":["TIME100 Next","sponsorshipblock"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfc653b32af76c00c/6998ca247323af421d2bce04/t100-next-2025-tate-mcrae-01.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"creator":"TIME Staff","articleSection":"World","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfc653b32af76c00c/6998ca247323af421d2bce04/t100-next-2025-tate-mcrae-01.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/world/","name":"World"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time100-next/","name":"TIME100 Next"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/","name":"Tate McRae"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Tate McRae | TIME100 NEXT","description":"","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/byy9th3d/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2025-09-30T10:00:00.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/byy9th3d.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/","duration":"PT8M2S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/collections/time100-next-2025/7318870/tate-mcrae/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
