AceShowbiz - Olivia Rodrigo capped off her U.S. dates for the "Guts World Tour" with a dazzling duet featuring the rising star Chappell Roan. On Tuesday night, August 20 at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, Rodrigo introduced Roan to an eagerly awaiting crowd, describing her as "one of the most inspiring, powerful artists I've ever had the pleasure of meeting." Together, they performed Roan's hit "Hot to Go!" and engaged the audience in a spirited dance-along.
Clad in a sparkling corset, Roan took to the stage and announced, "We're going to sing you a song and teach you a dance," before the duo launched into the lively track. Rodrigo had been a steadfast supporter of Roan long before this collaboration, having welcomed her to open several shows on her Sour tour and once again on the Guts World Tour. The two artists share a producer, Dan Nigro, who has been a pivotal figure in their musical journeys.
Throughout Rodrigo's tour, she has brought several special guests on stage, evolving her show into a memorable experience for each city. The list of stars includes Sheryl Crow in Nashville, Noah Kahan and Jewel in New York City, Lily Allen in London, and Tyler Childers in Lexington. Additionally, Rodrigo has a knack for spotlighting emerging artists by inviting them to open her shows, such as Remi Wolf, PinkPantheress and Benee for the Guts run, and Gracie Abrams and Holly Humberstone for the Sour tour.
This particular night marked Rodrigo's fifth of six consecutive sold-out shows in Los Angeles, a series of performances augmented by a weeklong Complex merch pop-up shop. Notably, Rodrigo's debut album, Sour, achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first female album to reach 13 billion streams on Spotify. As she gears up to end her U.S. tour, Rodrigo is slated to bring her electrifying performances to Asia and Australia in the coming months.
Meanwhile, Chappell Roan is experiencing a momentous year herself. After her stint opening for Rodrigo, she went on to perform at major festivals including Coachella, Bonnaroo, Governors Ball, and Outside Lands. The collaborative spirit between Rodrigo and Roan, fostered by their shared producer Dan Nigro, highlights the exciting new talents being nurtured within the pop music scene.
As the "Guts World Tour" continues, fans around the globe eagerly await the dynamic performances Olivia Rodrigo is known for, bringing with her an energy that promises to define this generation of pop culture.
