 Olivia Rodrigo's reached many milestones very early in her career -- with a No. 1 debut album and a smash hit in her breakthrough single "Drivers License," to start -- but it wasn't until this weekend that she played her first real concert, an experience that she described from a Las Vegas stage as "surreal."  Though Rodrigo has performed for a live audience during one-off televised events, like her appearance at last week's VMAs, the 2021 iHeartRadio Music Festival had the singer delivering a more substantial five-song set in support of Sour. She kicked things off with her album opener, the high energy "Brutal," and then "Jealousy, Jealousy." "This is a really special day for me because this is sort of like my first show," she told the crowd from the fest's daytime stage on Saturday (Sept. 18). "I'm just so grateful that you guys are here with me experiencing this. Thank you so much." "Speaking of firsts, this is the first song I put out," she said, sitting at the piano to begin "Drivers License." As she played her hit, she encouraged the audience -- where some fans were spotted in Olivia Rodrigo and Sour tees -- to join in, though she didn't have to. They were already singing along before she could say "let me hear ya." Seemingly overcome with emotion over the experience, Rodrigo gushed, ""You guys are just like the best crowd ever. This is amazing." Rodrigo's set continued with "Traitor" followed by "Good 4 U" as the closing number, and then she shouted out a "thank you" to Vegas as she blew kisses and ran off the stage. |

Olivia Rodrigo's set turned into fight night for a couple fans who just couldn't keep their hands to themselves while others around them continued to enjoy the show. Rodrigo took the stage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Vegas Saturday and for whatever reason, two female fans got into an argument. Things were quick to turn physical after one fan put hands on the other ... and then fists started to fly. The funniest part of the clip, fans surrounding the brawl continued to sing along as Olivia performed her hit song "Drivers License" on the massive stage in front. http://instagram.com/p/CUA5My4hHSw Unclear if security eventually had to step in or if either of the fighting fans was thrown out, but Olivia's set was only 5 songs ... so hopefully everything got sorted out in time to enjoy the whole show. Olivia must not have noticed the scuffle, at one point reportedly telling her audience, "You guys are just like the best crowd ever. This is amazing." |

Olivia Rodrigo made her concert debut at Las Vegas’ iHeart Radio Music Festival in her signature edgy style – with shoes to match.  The pop star hit the stage yesterday for her iHeartRadio Daytime Village set, wearing a sleek crop top. The cutout number featured a black bandeau, long “cold shoulder” sleeves and a high neckline. Rodrigo accentuated her look’s edge with longtime stylists Chloe and Chenelle Delgadillo, pairing wide-legged high-waisted gray trousers with an eyelet-studded belt, silver wallet chains and rings.  Rodrigo also added her own touch to the look: a silver bracelet inspired by the “Twilight” series’ “Breaking Dawn: Part 2” film. “Wearing my ‘Breaking Dawn’ charm bracelet for good luck,'” the star captioned a photo of her wrist prior to her performance. |

Olivia Rodrigo closed out the Daytime Stage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival presented by Samsung Galaxy for her first-ever festival performance. Performing her hit songs "Brutal," "Jealousy, Jealousy," "Driver's Licence," "Traitor," then closing out with "Good For U," the 18-year-old songstress had the crowd screaming throughout her entire set. ) Prior to when she came on stage, the entire crowd waited in anticipation. The loudest scream of the night came as she walked on stage, Rodrigo glowing while she opened with "Brutal." As she sings "Jealousy, Jealousy," the entire crowd sings along, a heavy electric guitar complimenting her performance. Olivia Rodrigo introduced herself before sitting at the piano, telling the crowd, "I don't know if you guys know this but this is a really special day for me, because this is my first show." Bridging into "Driver's Licence," the crowd sang along to the singer's debut singer nearly as loud as she did. As she went into the chorus, tears could be spotted from her fans, confetti falling over them, Rodrigo's beaming smile displaying disbelief of the moment. Rodrigo's name continued to be chanted as she began her next single, which saw her belting the lyrics to "Traitor." Heartbreak sank through the singer's performance while butterflies flew across the screen behind her and her backing vocals soared. Talking briefly to say hello to her family in the crowd and reflecting on the surreal moment, she prepared to begin her last song of the afternoon. |
