if only 12 year old tate knew she was gonna make no.1 on spotify global

[@Jon-yb9nm]

And should have picked the black girl so she can be ready to do the hip hop moves on stage …. Could’ve learned a lot

[@atlas9859]

I remember watching this when it aired. I wanted her to win in the end lol. Seeing her famous for singing now while still incorporating dance at points, I’m really happy for her

[@angelicaduncan9694]

What hasn’t she done?!!!! I’ve just learned about Tate McRae and just watching all these videos at home videos, performance videos on TV, her own music videos, talkshow host interviews, and TV performances OMG she is going places. There’s something about her that’s just so aesthetically beautiful in every way, singer songwriter dancer composer of instruments

[@megandia4220]

She even beat Maddie Ziegler at the dance awards. One of the best competitions.

when they all got up 🤣😍🤣🤣🤣😂

[@josephlawlor7458]

Dam so young with so much talent and confidence!

[@amycasey2818]

Just watched Saturday Night Live with Jason Momoa. It’s the first I saw of her, and I am always so critical, but I thought immediately… This girl has serious talent. And I was thinking as a singer! I didn’t even know she was a dancer until I found these videos, and I am beyond impressed. She’s inspirational. I hope she goes far because she also seems like a good person. When she makes it, Rich, I hope she remembers The poor, struggling people, trying to make it and considers endowments and such instead of blowing her money on champagne, like the idiots on all of the real housewives series, who make me sick to my stomach

[@clarissajoycelyn]

so proud of how far tate has come

[@orac1waterskiing]

I haven't watched the show in years and saw some videos of Tate. I feel the shoe needed Tate McRae.

[@suesylvester2041]

Seeing her talk to Maddie at the end is surreal

[@mrkrabstinysadviolin1400]

To this day all I can think of is the movie 300 with the oracles

[@idkwhattonamemchannel9287]

6 years ago no way

[@Lilylove827]

I’m still baffled they didn’t pick Sophia lucia

[@jacob-ni6jr]

Honestly Sophia competing was totally unfair. She had already broken world records and competed. I’m glad Ruby got a chance to shine, Ruby Castro was my favorite to win that year and was so underrated

[@janetd7446]

It's not that shocking actually. It's a TV show first so they were looking for charisma, personality and performance as well as talent. While Sophia was insanely talented, she was not the most dynamic performer or engaging personality.

[@SpedUpSongs2007]

Don’t diss on my girl Ruby, I’m glad Paul took a chance with her and didn’t go for the jugular Sophia. Ruby was well rounded and had a firey personality. Very mature dancer and overall pleasant.

[@totokatalintgi2030]

Ooo

[@MyWayofEverything]

You notice the little cut to Sophia Lucia in the audience. Did she audition?

[@SpedUpSongs2007]

She was on Paul’s team and was the last to be cut. Idk why she auditioned cause she was already worldwide known. I’m glad Paul chose Ruby Castro who was a beautiful fiery well rounded dancer. This show had the dance world shaken. Literally so many big names from dance moms, americas got talent etc
