Sydney Sweeney couldn’t stop fangirling over Tate McRae as she gushed about how Glen Powell helped them connect. The actor revealed that Powell helped her land the gig with McRae on her new music video during her recent appearance on “The Kelly Clarkson Show.” The host, Clarkson, teased the subject, questioning Sweeney about how she nabbed the opportunity to work with the singer, prompting her to rave about her former co-star’s role.
Sydney Sweeney and Tate McRae worked together because of Glen Powell
Glen Powell played a major role in Sydney Sweeney and Tate McRae’s collaboration in “Miss Possessive.” During her appearance on Kelly Clarkson’s talk show, Sweeney lavished praise on her “Anyone But You” co-star for helping her connect with the singer. In the episode, Clarkson seemed too curious about the duo’s iconic joint endeavour in the song, triggering the discussion about Powell’s involvement and how it possibly couldn’t have happened without him.
“You were on a Tate McRae song, how did that happen?” the host asked Sweeney, who was thrilled to answer. She revealed being McRae’s and her music’s “huge fan,” but admitted to not knowing her before that. “I think she’s so beyond talented, and she’s so hot,” the Emmy-nominated star raved about the singer, ultimately dishing that Powell “connected” them. She explained, “He was like, ‘Hey, Tate wants me to connect you two. Can I give her your number?’ I said, ‘Yeah sure.'”
Acknowledging Glen Powell’s role in the collaboration, Sydney Sweeney shared that Tate McRae reached out to her soon after. The latter reportedly requested a sample of her voice for her latest album. Both Clarkson and Sweeney unanimously agreed that it was “so cool” she got to work with the musician, and all fans have Powell to thank for the epic collab. “Miss Possessive” is the opening track of the “So Close to What” album. It features a brief portion with Sweeney, saying, “No, seriously, get your hands off my man.”
The revelation came days after Powell’s rumored ex, Gigi Paris, seemingly broke her silence on their highly publicized breakup. Paris appeared on the “Too Much” podcast and talked about a former boyfriend without taking names, revealing she knew exactly when to walk away.
