Lock up your lip gloss and hide your ring light, because Addison Rae just dropped another certified glitter bomb on our eardrums with her new single โFame Is a Gunโ โ and letโs just sayโฆ sheโs not aiming for subtlety, sheโs aiming for ICON status.
At a ripe 24 years young (which is basically 97 in influencer years), Addison is rolling out banger number five from her long-awaited, highly glamorized, probably lip-gloss-scented debut album โAddison,โ which officially lands on planet Earth next Friday, June 6th โ so mark your calendars with rhinestones.
And because Addison never just drops music like a normal human, sheโs giving us another cinematic masterpiece to go along with the track. Directed by Sean Price Williams (a man who clearly knows how to shoot women with expensive lighting and feral energy), the video is like if The Godfather and Euphoria had a sparkly baby and raised it on TikTok thirst traps.
In the chorus, Addison practically whispers danger in your ear:
โFame is a gun and I point it blind / Crash and burn, girl, baby, swallow it dryโฆโ
โ which is either a warning, a mood, or a new cocktail. Weโre not sure, but weโre drinking it anyway. ๐ธ
The track was co-written with her glitter gang Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjรคrd, who also produced this pop fever dream โ and the rest of the album too, because Addison is not here for a casual SoundCloud drop. She is here to dominate the pop girlie charts and maybe open her own line of emotional perfume called Gunfire & Lip Gloss.
So whether you stan her, fear her, or wish you were her, one thing is clear: Addison Rae is not just sipping from the chalice of fame โ sheโs chugging it, spraying it, and bottling it for resale.
Go stream โFame Is a Gunโ on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, or just scream it from your window in a sequin jumpsuit. And remember: the debut album โAddisonโ hits June 6th, and based on this rollout, itโs not an album โ itโs a cultural reset.
