Pop star Olivia Rodrigo fears 'peeing her pants' on stage
Olivia Rodrigo fears she might "pee [her] pants on stage". The 22-year-old pop star has enjoyed a meteoric rise over recent years - but Olivia still feels anxious whenever she performs in front of a large crowd. Asked to reveal her "greatest fear", Olivia told People: "[I'm afraid] I'm going to pee my pants on stage." Olivia is currently in the midst of her Guts World Tour, and the chart-topping star has developed a very defined routine over recent months. Asked to reveal the first thing she does when she gets off stage, the pop star said: "I drink a ton of water." Olivia subsequently admitted that she tries to avoid taking on too many fluids before her concerts, because she fears she might have an embarrassing accident. She confessed: "I'm always scared to drink water before I go on stage." Olivia previously admitted that she felt "a little nervous" before embarking on her Guts World Tour. The brunette beauty began her tour in February 2024 and although she's relished the experience, Olivia initially felt a little bit anxious about the challenge. The 'Bad Idea Right?' hitmaker - who released her 'GUTS' album in September 2023 - told Complex: "The vibes are great. It's my first arena tour, so going into it, I was really excited and a little nervous, but it's been so amazing. "It's been so cool getting to go to all these places that I've never been before and play these songs that I've been living with for so long. It's been a really great time." Olivia has been very busy throughout the tour, but she's also found time to have some fun while she's been on the road. Asked to recall the funniest experience of the tour, Olivia replied: "We were in Kentucky or some place in the south, and there were these little horses that you could get on and pedal, and they'd gallop with you. "We loved them so much that we bought them to put on the bus, and they go everywhere with us. So we have these little horses that come everywhere and they're our primary mode of transportation around the venue."

Olivia Rodrigo Plays Biggest Concert of Her Career in Mexico City: ‘My Eyes Can't Believe It'
With her performance debut in Mexico, Olivia Rodrigo reached a new milestone by playing the largest solo concert of her career to date, as she revealed onstage. The Guts superstar packed the Estadio GNP Seguros on Wednesday night in a sold-out show. The venue in the capital city has a capacity of 65,000 people, according to information from the promoter OCESA. 'Do you guys know that this is the biggest show that I've ever played in my f—ing life?! I literally… My eyes can't believe it. Oh my God! Thank you guys so much for being here,' Rodrigo said, visibly emotional, during her first of two nights at the iconic stadium (formerly known as Foro Sol).

Her visit to Mexico is part of the Latin American leg of her Guts World Tour, with her first stadium shows in Brazil and Mexico. Prior to the Mexican capital, Rodrigo performed her first solo concert in the region in the Brazilian city of Curitiba. In her first visit to Latin America, the 22-year-old star also participated in the Chilean, Argentine and Brazilian editions of the Lollapalooza festival late last month. In Colombia, she was part of the lineup for the Estéreo Picnic festival. This summer, she will also headline Lollapalooza on Aug. 1 at Grant Park in Chicago. During her performance in Mexico City, Rodrigo told the audience that it was one of her favorite cities and that she had already tried some traditional tacos, visited the Museo Casa Azul of the iconic painter Frida Kahlo, and attended a lucha libre wrestling match. Although there were mixed feelings because the show in Mexico, like in South America, did not feature the original production of the Guts World Tour, with the massive catwalk and giant hanging moon, and her setlist was shorter than usual, her thousands of fans, mostly young girls, gave the American singer a warm reception. The three-time Grammy winner's setlist included hits such as 'Obsessed,' 'Vampire,' 'Love Is Embarrassing,' 'Lacy,' 'So American' and, one of the most anticipated songs of the night, 'Good 4 U.' The opening act for Rodrigo's shows was Texas indie rocker St. Vincent, who released an album entirely in Spanish, Todos Nacen Gritando, late last year — a version of her Grammy-winning album All Born Screaming (2024). In her return to Mexico City, following her appearance at the previous edition of the Corona Capital festival, Annie Clark (her real name) was joined by Nine Inch Nails drummer Ilan Rubin as part of her band. On Thursday night (April 3), Rodrigo will perform her second concert at the Estadio GNP Seguros before traveling to the northern city of Monterrey to participate in the Tecate Pa'l Norte festival over the weekend.

Finally, you can buy Olivia Rodrigo's favorite gummy candy in the U.S. Here's where
Percy Pig's packed and ready to arrive in America. Not sure who the porcine pop star is? Percy Pig is one of the United Kingdom's most popular candies, a berry and grape flavored gummy that reportedly sells more than 20 million bags a year in the UK — about 38 bags a minute, according to All Recipes. The lil' pillowy piggy treat, 33 years after its founding by the food division of Marks & Spencer in 1992, finally makes it over the pond for sale at Target stores in the U.S. Target will be the exclusive retailer of Percy Pig candies and will start selling the $3.99 bags on March 30, including in South Florida. Cult star Percy Pig Percy Pig fans include pop culture stars like singers Olivia Rodrigo and Harry Styles, tennis champ Andy Murray and 'Spider-Man' actor Tom Holland, who voiced the perky pig in a 2021 M&S commercial. Rodrigo dished on her love for Percy Pig gummies on stage in London after trying them during her Guts World Tour in February 2024. The clip went viral on YouTube and TikTok. Percy's a digital star, too. The official Percy Pig Instagram page has amassed more than 123,000 followers and views number in the millions from all the TikTok posts. TikTok-ers rave over how 'cute' the pink gummies are. The flavor? Comments we found on TikTok include 'the most pillowy, marshmallowy, chewy gummy' and comparison to Swedish candies in foamy texture and juicy taste. One video from inside a store in England finds a fan clutching a bag. She ponders whether the use of fruit juice as an ingredient gives Percy Pig its signature rush. As she gushes, she proclaims the treat as addictive 'like crack.' 'We're thrilled to bring Percy Pig sweets to the U.S. and introduce him as a character to a whole new audience,' said Sharry Cramond, food marketing director at M&S, in a statement. 'Percy isn't just a sweet treat, he's a British icon. ... Over the years, Percy has grown from a much-loved gummy into a brand with a personality of his own, complete with friends, adventures and even his own story.' British Vogue put Percy on its Hot List in 2008. In the UK there are toys, clothing, home and beauty products with the cartoon pig's cheerful image. When Percy hit 30 in 2022, the confectionery went vegan. (No more gelatin or beeswax in Percy's makeup.) In 2024, Percy was cross-marketed at the Summer Olympics and the first 'Wicked' movie in Europe. Crossing the pond Now, Percy's on target for his domestic debut. Note: fans have been able to order 6-ounce Percy Pig bags for delivery via Amazon but the price runs around $12 — three times the $4 tag for the same size product at Target. 'We're beyond excited to introduce Percy to the U.S. for the very first time,' said Kathryn Turner, head of product development at M&S.
