Here’s Why Fans Think This Pop Singer Could Be Joining Morgan Wallen For a Duet

Last week, reigning CMA Awards entertainer of the year Morgan Wallen teased that his new album will feature his first duet with a female artist, and ever since, fans have been speculating about who the collaborator could be.

They’ve thrown names of country artists including Megan Moroney, Ella Langley and Miranda Lambert in the ring of possible contenders. But now, fans have reason to believe the collaborator is none other than pop singer and “Greedy” hitmaker Tate McRae.

On Tuesday (April 15), McRae posted a Instagram Story that featured an up-close shot of an orange sports jersey, emblazoned not only with “T8,” but also the initials “MW.” The post had no caption or other commentary from the pop singer.

Wallen has yet to publicly comment on McRae’s Instagram Story, but he previously commented on fans’ guesses, posting a photo on his own Instagram Stories of himself playing golf, which reads, “I haven’t seen one person guess the female collab on this album correctly yet.”

In other Wallen collaborator news, he just revealed he will release a new song this Friday (April 18) with Post Malone, called “I Ain’t Comin’ Back,” the followup to their Billboard Hot 100 multi-week No. 1 “I Had Some Help.”

Wallen is gearing up for the May 16 release of his new album I’m The Problem, which features songs such as “Lies Lies Lies” and “Love Somebody.” He’ll also launch his Sand in My Boots festival in Alabama the weekend of May 16-18. Others on the lineup include Post Malone, Brooks & Dunn, HARDY, Diplo, T-Pain, Treaty Oak Revival and Bailey Zimmerman.
