This is when Rodrigo pacifies Bridgers, pointing out that the latter needs rest after her involvement in the "tour of all tours". For the inversed, Bridgers had recently been a part of Taylor Swift's ongoing Eras Tour. Rodrigo referring to the Eras Tour as the "tour of all tours" comes as a welcome change amid reports of the Drivers License singer's fallout with Swift. Rodrigo said, "You deserve a rest, though. You were literally just on the tour of all tours. I can’t imagine how drained you must be. Take a bubble bath."

Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift's alleged feud has been in relation to the former's song Deja Vu. Rodrigo had interpolated Swift's song Cruel Summer - which means she re-recorded the melody instead of sampling it. Rodrigo eventually ended up giving Swift a co-writing credit and royalties for the song.
