Good 4 u, SCOTUS, you have Olivia Rodrigo's attention
Photo: Cindy Ord/Getty Images God, it really is brutal out here right now — especially for anyone with a uterus. And Olivia Rodrigo knows it. The “Drivers License” singer paused her concert in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday to talk about abortion in the wake of the leaked Supreme Court draft opinion that could signal the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
“Because we’re in D.C., I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to talk about how heartbroken I am over the Supreme Court’s potential decision,” Rodrigo told a sold-out crowd. “What a woman does with her body should never be in the hands of politicians.
The draft opinion, written by Justice Samuel Alito, was leaked to Politico on Monday and indicates that the Court is on track to take away federally protected abortion rights and revert these decisions back to the states. Consequently, abortion would be banned in 13 states that currently have “trigger laws” in place — making abortion illegal in the event that Roe is overturned.
