Role Model, or Tucker, has been making a name for himself. Since his single “Sally, When The Wine Runs Out,” Role Model has been seen all over social media, not just for his music but also for his goofy personality. Whether it’s us seeing him shake ass on stage or him pulling out his mini red Birkley bag from his back pocket, he knows how to keep his crowd entertained. Not through colorful lights or dancers, but simply his energy. His concerts don’t feel like a circus act; rather, a conversation filled with a mix of light, spirited, and heartfelt songs that encourage you to just dance or sing along.
One popular segment is his special guests of Sallys that he brings on stage during the song “Sally, When The Wine Runs Out.” Role Model has brought on a huge range of celebrities from Natalie Portman to other artists like The Dare, or even fans from the crowd. If you aren’t TikTok or Reels obsessed like I am, here’s my list of the most significant Sallys.
- Jake Shane
-
He’s the one who started it all. In the big city of Dallas, Texas, on Feb. 27, history was made. To be in that crowd must’ve been a magical moment. The screams were loud, and the energy was through the roof of that Dallas Venue. This one instant would become a tradition that dictated the rest of the tour.
- The Dare
-
Black suit and tie, permanent sunglasses, and a cigarette in his pocket, The Dare took to the stage as Sally on July 31 at Lollapalooza in Chicago. He went on as his usual stage of being confident and, more simply put, a cool guy. As soon as he got on stage, he hugged Tucker and lit a cigarette, of course. Even better, he and Tucker shared it.
- Conan Gray
-
Conan Gray ran on stage with his “Wish I Were Sally Shirt” and a mission on June 6 at Governors Ball in New York. He ran up, grabbed Tucker, and kissed him on the lips. A definite one-up from sharing a cigarette. Tucker fell back in shock, and Conan fell to the floor. Each looked pretty flabbergasted. Though it didn’t take long for them to come back and keep dancing. Afterwards, Tucker took a moment to recuperate before continuing the show, letting out an “Oh my god” and a “I got distracted for a second.” I don’t think anyone (other than Conan Gray) expected this magical moment to happen, but it was shared with all of the Governors Ball music festival, and let’s be realistic, anyone with social media.
