Olivia Rodrigo

I'm very much a people pleaser. I'm getting out of it as I grow up. But when I was younger, I was like, 'Oh, if that's what you think, great.' But that's the worst. That's the kiss of death in music.

I'm a super specific songwriter. I always have been. I think the most impactful songs are specific. Broad storytelling just isn't fun in any art medium.

I think I feel inadequate in many sorts of relationships, whether that be a work relationship or a friendship relationship.

It's sort of funny to have songs get big about like, how much you feel like nobody likes you. It's sort of ironic and weird.

I write songs when I'm in the depths of my emotions.

Hope Ur OK' makes me really sad, in a great way - it just makes me really emotional. It's a super personal song about people that I really love. That one gets me.

I always say that I never had a normal high school experience. I've always been homeschooled because I've been working.

High School Musical' is just such a fun project, it's so fun to work on and it's so fun to watch just as a viewer.

It's so nice to be welcomed into the music industry and so great to be supportive of other women.

I don't really subscribe to hating other women because of boys.

Most 14-year-olds aren't in a room with adults being like, 'So, what's your brand?'

I'm very tame.

I'm a big dynamics girl. All my favorite music is super dynamic and gets really quiet, then really loud. I've always been drawn to stuff like that.

I would post about 'Twilight' even if I didn't have a song called 'Vampire.'

I think there's a lot of vampire lore to be played with like 'You only come out at night' and stuff like that. There's a lot of fun songwriting fodder in there.

I don't kiss and tell.

I love 'My Boy,' like I think that song is so genius and clever and fun.

I think it would be really cool to collaborate with Billie Eilish. I think everything she does is just so spectacular.

I don't know why I cannot see any movie that was made before 1970. My brain just doesn't compute.

Every single artist is inspired by artists who have come before them. It's sort of a fun, beautiful sharing process.
