Olivia Rodrigo says her music is inspired by 'weird' moments from her life

The 20-year-old Good 4 U singer, Olivia Rodrigo is rumored to be linked with actor Louis Partridge. She mentioned that she loved seeing the Priscilla film enjoys Dolly Alderton’s books as she loves the writer’s take on messy romances, reports Female First UK.

On being asked if there was any storytelling she was impressed: “I saw Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla, and I can’t stop thinking about it. I think she’s such an incredible storyteller. I’ve got Patti Smith’s Year of the Monkey on my bedside table, and I’ve read Just Kids and Woolgathering.”

She further mentioned, quoted by Female First UK: “I’ve also been reading a lot of Dolly Alderton lately. She wrote one of my favorite books, ‘Everything I Know About Love’. My mantra in life, anytime something weird or embarrassing happens to me, is ‘I’m just collecting stories for the memoir. I’m just here to collect fun memories that I can talk and write about later.’ Olivia also said in the chat she is trying to write a song every day to keep her mental health in check.”

“These days, I try to write one song every day. I just feel like myself when I’m writing. “If I don’t do it, I get depressed. I’m just writing songs to process what’s going on, whether in my personal life or my perception of the world,” she added.

The singer’s Grammy nominations include Record of the Year for her song Vampire, Album of the Year for Guts, Song of the Year for Vampire, Best Pop Solo Performance for Vampire, Best Pop Vocal Album for Guts, and Best Rock Song for Ballad Of A Homeschooled Girl.

The Grammy-winner’s song Can't Catch Me Now, which was released earlier this month is also featured on the ‘Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes' soundtrack. “I love everything Hunger Games”, Rodrigo told People.
