Canadian-born pop star Tate McRae doubled down on her roots after fans were left outraged on social media by her support of Team USA in a recent ad promoting the Milan Cortina Olympics<\/a> and Super Bowl LX.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McRae, who was born in Calgary, Alberta, appeared to intensify the sporting rivalry between Canada and the U.S. when she appeared in an ad for NBC. In the clip, shared on Instagram with her nine million followers, McRae expressed excitement about meeting U.S. athletes, including Olympic gold medalist Lindsey Vonn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I’m trying to get to Milan for an amazing opening ceremony and meet Team USA,” she said in the ad. “Gonna spend the week with some of America’s best skating for gold and Lindsey Vonn’s epic comeback. And back to the states for the big game, Super Bowl LX,” she said in the commercial.<\/p>\n

Amid rising political tensions between the two border nations \u2013 which made their way to the sporting world during the 4 Nations Face-Off, McRae\u2019s support for Team USA did not appear to sit well with Canadians, who called her a “traitor” among other things.<\/p>\n

But McRae took to social media to respond to the backlash, and perhaps reveal where her loyalties truly lie.\u00a0<\/p>\n

McRae posted a childhood picture of herself holding the Canadian flag with a caption that read, “… y\u2019all know I\u2019m Canada down.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

But not everyone on social media appeared to accept McRae\u2019s response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Yeah, no. Her saying \u2018Y’all\u2019\u00a0says otherwise,” one person wrote on X.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Well then why support the US team? Sometimes it is important to support your own country and not just go for the money and especially during times like this,” another added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Damage control,” another response read.<\/p>\n

Backlash over McRae\u2019s ad set the stage for escalating tensions between the U.S. and Canada.<\/p>\n

Most recently in the skeleton competition, many Americans remain outraged over the absence of five-time Olympian Katie Uhlaender in Milan Cortina, after Team Canada was found<\/a> to have manipulated an Olympic qualifier last month that prevented Uhlaender from being able to earn enough points to make this year’s Winter Games.<\/p>\n
