Olivia Rodrigo may be young, but she's already a global pop superstar. Her emotional ballads and edgy bangers have proven to be anthems for people of all ages who can relate to the agony of a bad breakup ("Drivers License"), or the sting of seeing your ex with a new love ("Jealousy, Jealousy"), or feeling incredibly hurt as a result of someone’s unexpected betrayal ("Vampire"). It’s that authenticity that allows her fans to connect so deeply with her music—and that has raised her status almost instantaneously from Disney kid (she last starred in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series) to internationally recognized Grammy Award winner. If anyone can take life’s sour moments and turn them into multi-platinum records, Olivia Rodrigo can. This is her story.
