Two pop stars are always better than one. And when those two comets are Olivia Rodrigo and Chappell Roan, all bets are off. During Rodrigo's tour stop at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif. on Tuesday night (August 20), the “Bad Idea Right?” The singer graciously shared the stage with Roan on the penultimate US date of her Guts world tour.
“I've known the following artists for about four years now… I absolutely adore her. I think she's one of the most unique, inspiring, powerful artists I've ever had the pleasure of meeting and I'm so excited because she's going to sing one of my all-time favorite songs with me tonight,” Rodrigo told the crowd before Roan came on with her on stage, according to tour-la-hot-to-go-1236113398/” target=”_blank”>Variety.
Roan, who like Rodrigo was dressed in a brightly colored mini dress dripping with sequins, then took to the stage to deafening screams from the audience as the two women hugged it out before getting down to business. “We're going to sing a song and teach you a dance,” Roan told them.
That song was, of course, a Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 sensation. 17 of Roan's 'Hot To Go!', and while the crowd certainly didn't need the slow-motion tutorial on the energetic hand that has become the hit song's viral signature, Roan and Rodrigo took a halftime stroll before kicking things up a notch and kicking off with high speed the full speed version. Roan took the first verse, handing over to Rodrigo before joining forces for the chorus, galloping into place looking at each other.
Rodrigo also noted in her introduction that Roan — who worked with Olivia's producer Dan Nigro on her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess — opened for her two years ago on a San Francisco date on Olivia's debut tour, as well as opening for a number of Guts world tour dates earlier this year.
After tonight's (August 21) second show at the Intuit Dome, Rodrigo's tour kicks off in Bangkok, where she'll begin a two-day stand at IMPACT Arena on September 15, before moving on to South Korea, China, Japan and Singapore and Australia, which will keep her on the road until October 22 at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena.
