Olivia Rodrigo Rocks Out ‘Drivers License,’ ‘Deja Vu’ at FireAid LA Benefit Concert

When Olivia Rodrigo hit the stage at Intuit Dome on Thursday (Jan. 30) night, the FireAid LA Benefit Concert had already been going for four-and-a-half hours between two venues. But based on the crowd’s ecstatic response to the Grammy winner and Billboard Hot 100 topper, you wouldn’t have known it. From the opening lines of her breakout smash “Drivers License,” Rodrigo had the audience eating out of the palm of her hand. It’s a devastating breakup tune, but Rodrigo seemed to be enjoying herself, waving and pointing at fans throughout the verses and rocking out on the chorus.

“It has been so heartbreaking to witness the devastation in this incredible city,” Rodrigo told the crowd after her first song. “I love L.A. so much. I’ve lived here my whole life. I find this place so beautiful and so inspiring.”

Talking about her love for Los Angeles, Rodrigo cited the city as one of her lyrical and musical muses before treating fans to “Déjà Vu,” another hit that she says was inspired by her life in the City of Angels.

Split between the Kia Forum and the Intuit Dome, FireAid also featured appearances and performances from Lady Gaga, Stevie Nicks, Lil Baby, Jelly Roll, Olivia Rodrigo, Katy Perry, Stevie Wonder, Alanis Morissette, Joni Mitchell and many others. All proceeds from the event will go toward rebuilding efforts in Los Angeles and offer aid to displaced families.
