The Olivia Rodrigo Story
She's been in the music industry for just two years, but is now a global superstar. What’s behind all that success?
It's been a remarkable journey for Olivia Rodrigo. She burst onto the scene in 2021 with hits like Deja Vu and Good 4 U. Now, her newest album, Guts – which was only released on 8 September – has soared to the number 1 spot on the UK charts. But three years ago, she was known mainly for appearing on Disney TV shows. What has driven the transformation and delivered such success?
For this episode of the 5 Minutes On podcast, the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ's music correspondent Mark Savage speaks to Olivia Rodrigo about the creative process behind her second album, her eclectic fan base and – yes – how she enjoys knitting.
