Olivia Rodrigo was this week’s Saturday Night Live musical guest, where she appeared alongside host Adam Driver. She performed two songs from her Grammy-nominated album Guts: a stripped-down version of “Vampire,” during which Rodrigo accompanied herself on the piano, and “All-American Bitch.” She also had a role in one of the evening’s sketches, “Tiny Ass Bag.” Watch clips from the episode below.
This is Rodrigo’s second time appearing on SNL. In the “Tiny Ass Bag” sketch, she spoke in an accent as the tiny bag fanatic Georgina. For her performance of “All-American Bitch,” Rodrigo transformed the stage into a tea party and destroyed it, hopping on the table and stomping all over all the cakes.
Rodrigo made her SNL debut in May 2021, performing Sour tracks “Drivers License” and “Good 4 U” on an episode hosted by comedian Keegan-Michael Key. She released her sophomore album, Guts, in September, and will embark on a world tour in support of the record beginning in February 2024. Openers include Chappell Roan, PinkPantheress, Remi Wolf, and the Breeders.
So far this season, Ice Spice, Boygenius, Foo Fighters, and more have performed on Saturday Night Live. Next week, Billie Eilish will appear on the show for the third time, accompanied by host and former cast-member Kate McKinnon.
