It's not always easy being a young woman
00:01
in the music industry, but I found so much strength
00:05
from the female songwriters and artists
00:07
who have come before me and paved the way.
00:10
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:16
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:20
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:24
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:28
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:30
I'm like 18, I don't really know hardly anything
00:35
about myself even, or the world,
00:38
or like how I fit into all of it.
00:39
I'm just kinda just like doing what I like
00:42
and following what makes me happy right now.
00:45
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:49
♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

♫ Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
01:04
My heritage is a part of who I am.
01:06
I'm part Filipina.
01:07
On my dad's side of the family,
01:09
my Filipino heritage comes from my great-grandfather.
01:13
♫
01:41
I've been writing songs since I could literally talk.
01:43
Like my mom has home videos of me
01:45
just making up gibberish songs
01:46
about like going to the grocery store
01:48
and stuff like that when I was so young.
01:50
♫
02:20
Being like a young 13-year-old girl on a set
02:24
and having to emote in front of a bunch of people
02:26
that you don't know,
02:27
I think that got me really comfortable
02:29
with my emotions and expressing those emotions.
02:31
♫
02:58
I got my driver's license last week
03:01
just like we always talked about
03:04
because you were so excited for me
03:08
to finally drive up to your house
03:11
but today I drove through the suburbs
03:14
crying because you weren't around.
03:19
You said forever, now I drive alone past your street.
03:25
♫
03:29
Two days after the song came out,
03:30
we were like, oh, whoa,
03:31
this doesn't usually happen.
03:33
This is really crazy.
03:34
Is the computer glitching?
03:36
Why are so many people streaming it?
03:37
It's crazy.
03:38
♫
03:43
We're about to get the bridge of our lives.
03:45

04:41
Hey, I'm Olivia Rodrigo
04:42
and I'm here with President Biden
04:43
talking about the importance
04:44
of getting vaccinated.
04:46
It's critical,
04:47
especially people of Olivia's age.
04:50
