Olivia Rodrigo on Toning Down Her Song Lyrics, What Her Family Thinks of Her Fame & Fear of Ghosts

[@pazer97]

"I wish I had the core strength" is so sweet and classy to said when someone thinks you are a stripper. i love this girl ❤❤❤

[@thebrenizers]

That is my favorite part of the interview because she got a good laugh but now makes sure that no one else’s life is reduced to a punch line.

[@sparklemotion101ni3]

@@thebrenizers Definitely. She handled that beautifully. Olivia made it clear with one little comment she's not a snob. She doesn't think she's any better than the girls her age who weren't blessed with a successful entertainment career since childhood, & that there's something to admire - core-strength, body-confidence, independence - in Vegas's "dancers" & you don't have to be selling-out world tours (like O) to be proud of your job or happy with your life.

[@jrog4771]

@@sparklemotion101ni3so people who don’t like stripping are snobs? Since when is the world admiring being a stripper and think that those who don’t are snobs? There is so much bad influence out there that now people are thinking stripping is to be admired? Seriously when I have kids, I will have to protect them so much from all this sexualised media. We are all being brainwashed to think all this is okay. Women are being sexualised all the time it’s so sad. That comment doesn’t really show what she thinks about stripping. Looks like she’s saying it to make it seem less bad to tell her story. And if she thinks good things about it, well that’s not a good thing, and little kids shouldn’t be listening to singers like this. It’s a bad influence for young women and men. I hope the world realises this and the culture changes. It’s bad influence for all of us, not just young girls or kids like jimmy kimmel talked about.

I just love how she writes raw emotions and puts them in rock like songs or heart wrenching ballads. She’s amazing and I can see her being here for a loooong time.
