Olivia Rodrigo Poured Her Heart and Soul Into Her Saturday Night Live Performances

Olivia Rodrigo made her debut on Saturday Night Live as this week’s musical guest. Fresh off her performance at the BRIT Awards, the 18-year-old singer took the stage once again to perform her hits “Drivers License” and “Good 4 U,” and we still have chills. Given that SNL previously parodied “Drivers License” when Regé-Jean Page hosted the show back in February, this feels like a full circle moment for her.

Rodrigo’s SNL appearance comes just a day after she dropped the video for “Good 4 U” and less than a week before the release of her debut album, Sour. “This album is full of stuff that I like, which is so diverse,” Rodrigo previously said in an interview with The Face. “There are elements of alternative rock in there, alt-pop, some country and definitely a lot of folk. I think anyone can find something they like hidden in one of the songs.” As for the album’s title, Rodrigo said, “It’s a very visceral word, one that captures the sounds that I’m inspired by and a specific slice of my life at 17. Plus it has my initials in it, which is a bonus!”

As we count down the days until Rodrigo’s album release, check out her SNL performances ahead.
