Overview
- Tate McRae posted an NBC/Peacock spot set to her single “Nobody’s Girl,” in which she says she is heading to meet Team USA, shouts out Lindsey Vonn, and plugs NBC’s Super Bowl LX coverage.
- Critics in Canada, including former Olympians Helen Upperton and Shallon Olsen, questioned why the Calgary-born singer promoted American athletes rather than Team Canada.
- McRae responded on Instagram Stories with a childhood photo holding a Canadian flag and the caption “...y’all know I’m Canada down,” without issuing a longer statement.
- The ad remains online as discussion continues, with some fans framing her participation as a routine business partnership tied to her U.S.-based career.
- Coverage notes NBC has used other non-American stars in Team USA promos, such as Dua Lipa, and highlights that heightened U.S.–Canada political frictions are amplifying the reaction.
