Olivia Rodrigo rocked the GRAMMYs and fans agreed. The singer earned a standing ovation and a nod from Taylor Swift.
While he didn’t win his own GRAMMY this year, Rodrigo made his mark on the awards show in a different way. Wearing a stunning red dress, Rodrigo dazzled and astonished with a performance of “Vampiro.”
Even Swift performed the song, dancing and singing the lyrics. Notably, many theorized that the song was actually about Swift after a fight between the two.
Olivia Rodrigo talks about the song’s inspiration
However, Rodrigo has dismissed the rumors as absurd. Likewise, she denies ever having a problem with Swift. The two seem pretty friendly at the GRAMMYs. In an interview with The GuardianRodrigo explained that she was surprised by all the attention the rumors received.
“I was very surprised when people thought that,” he told the publication. “I never want to say who any of my songs are about. I’ve never done that before in my career and I probably won’t. “I think it’s better not to pigeonhole a song into one thing.”
Furthermore, Rodrigo said that the song is not about fame at all. It’s about someone being manipulative in a personal relationship. Rodrigo said that his goal was to try to make the song universal, in an interview with Audacy’s Julia’s show.
“I think the song isn’t about fame or whatever, I think it’s more about someone being manipulative and sucking you dry, using you for all your worth,” he said. “I think it’s a universal theme and I also think that fame is easier to access now than ever. “It’s not just people in Los Angeles and Hollywood who have to deal with that.”
In the end, the GUTS album turned out to be a pivotal moment for the singer and her career, as she told Variety. “The experience tested my confidence and patience. “It taught me some important lessons about songwriting in terms of focusing on your craft instead of just waiting for inspiration to strike,” she said. “He taught me what the most conducive mentality is for writing: you can never sit at the piano and try to write something that everyone likes; That always results in a really bad song. She taught me that I write songs that I want to hear.”
