Andrew Tate in Hollywood: "This Is Where I Belong"

Palm trees silhouetted against a Los Angeles sunset over Hollywood

Andrew Tate is in Los Angeles. In a clip making the rounds this week, he is driving through Hollywood and says it without hedging: "This is where I belong. I'm a star." It is the strongest public signal yet that LA, and a possible permanent US move, is back on his agenda.

The short version

  • Tate visited Los Angeles this week and called Hollywood "where I belong"
  • He hinted at a permanent US move in the same clip, saying "I might move to LA"
  • 2026 has been a year of deliberate US re-entry: Miami, New York, Hong Kong already
  • Hollywood is the natural next stop for a brand built on positioning

What he actually said

The clip shows Tate behind the wheel, scanning the city as he drives. The line circulating: "This is where I belong. I'm a star." He follows it with "I might move to LA", the kind of half-floated, half-stated marker his audience reads as confirmation. Press coverage of the video gained traction quickly across X, Instagram and TikTok, with comments from his audience welcoming the prospect of more LA-based content.

Why Hollywood, and why now

Tate's 2026 has been deliberate. Miami earlier this spring. New York. Hong Kong and other cities. The international travel pattern has been steady all year, and Hollywood is the next city stacked on top of it.

Hollywood is the natural next move for a brand that has always lived on positioning. Three things LA offers no other city can match:

  1. Audience density. The largest US concentration of the demographic that buys his content sits between LA and Orange County.
  2. Media ecosystem. Podcast row, UFC headquarters, the celebrity-and-attention industrial complex. Most major podcasts in the world record within a 30-mile radius.

What this could mean

LA visits compound. Each one builds momentum and audience expectation for a permanent base. If Tate establishes any kind of US presence, even part-time, the downstream is predictable.

  • More high-profile podcast appearances. Most major US podcasts are based in or around LA.
  • More UFC event attendance. The Tate brothers were already in the US for UFC events earlier this year.
  • Closer access to American business circles, the people Tate has spent years saying he wants to operate alongside.

The Tate brand has always been about where you stand. Hollywood is the most-watched square footage on earth. Being there matters before the move is announced, not after.

The Top G read: LA aesthetic, gatekeeper standard

If you read the room he is standing in, the gear that fits the room is specific. LA is sun, smog, freeways, sunglass weather all year. It is also a city where people read what you are wearing before they hear what you are saying.

For the Top G audience taking notes:

  • Top Glasses the LA-tier sunglasses choice when you are driving through Hollywood, not pretending.
  • Flex alternative cut, same gatekeeper standard.
  • Money Suit velvet, premium, the move when the room is photographing you.
  • Cobratate Active Fight Suit direct brand piece, for the audience that runs with him.
