Trivia / Olivia Rodrigo

• Approval of God: When somebody on Twitter accused Olivia Rodrigo of plagiarizing Elvis Costello for her song "brutal", Costello himself chimed in and defended Rodrigo while pointing out his own history of taking inspiration from other artists.
• Breakup Breakout: Bizaardvark, was, for a long time, best known for being the show that brought rise to highly controversial Internet personality Jake Paul (and, by extension, his equally controversial older brother Logan). However, this changed in 2021, thanks to the rapid rise of Olivia Rodrigo into one of the biggest music stars in the world (largely helped by the exposure she got from her next major role on High School Musical: The Musical: The Series).
• Celebrity Break-Up Song: Olivia Rodrigo's "driver's license" is about her breakup with Joshua Bassett but it is less obvious. Later, Bassett releases "Lie, Lie, Lie", which is about his ex-girlfriend.
• Preview Piggybacking: A sneak peek at the making of Olivia's SOUR album is attached to a Mother's Day IMAX screening event of Space Jam: A New Legacy.
