Shaking his head as Tate performed, Frankie’s reaction was caught on the POV backstage camera.
Tate, 22, performed raunchy renditions of her hits Revolving Door and Sports Car, leaving many hot under the collar.
As she crooned, the audience was seen dancing and singing along.
Fans instantly clocked how Frankie looked unimpressed as she shook his head with a stoic look on his face.
Reacting to Frankie shaking his head, fans flocked to the comments underneath the livestream.
One person asked, “Why Frankie shaking his hand when Tate was performing??”
A second added. “Who’s this shaking his head at Tate performing?! Rude.”
Someone on X then said, “I feel like they both (ari and frankie) dont like tate like idk why but like yeah.”
Another X user added, “WHATS THE BEEF WITH TATE AND FRANKIE GRANDE LMAO.”
Shortly after Tate’s performance, Frankie appeared to clear up the confusion.
Speaking on the POV camera, Frankie later said, “I love Tate McRae. I’m obsessed with her.
“She’s beautiful and her makeup artist killed it today.”
Later on in the evening, Frankie was seen enthusiastically shaking Tate’s hand when introduced to her by Ariana backstage.
Fans later noticed that in a different backstage clip, Frankie was enjoying himself during Tate’s performance.
One person said on X, “TATE GOT FRANKIES STAMP OF APPROVAL!!! ily frankie,” alongside a video of him dancing and bopping away.
“This compared to the other clip is so confusing,” penned a second.
A third added, “ignore the things I said abt this man.”
At the end of Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards, Frankie’s sister Ariana, 32, scooped her third gong – but was taken aback as she could barely reach the microphone.
The petite singer’s mouth was barely at the same height the microphone as she accepted the Video of the Year award for Brighter Days Ahead.
As she accepted the glitzy award moments before the ceremony ended, she joked, “Does this get taller every time?”
She then asked, “Is this intentional?”
Fans were quick to notice the mic blunder, with many on social media slamming the VMAs and their production crew for allowing the mic placement to be off.
