Olivia Rodrigo reacts to viral SNL Driver\u2019s License skit YouTube: Saturday Night Live, Oliva RodrigoTikTok star, actress and viral music artist Olivia Rodrigo has reacted to an SNL skit about her record-breaking song \u2018Driver\u2019s License\u2019 \u2014 and it\u2019s safe to say she\u2019s super stoked about the whole ordeal. Rodrigo\u2019s original song \u2018Driver\u2019s License\u2019 went viral in January 2021, skyrocketing to the top of the US iTunes sales charts the very next day after its release and even being praised by the likes of Taylor Swift. The song\u2019s heartbreaking lyrics and emotional vocals aren\u2019t the only reason \u2018Driver\u2019s License\u2019 has become so popular; many fans believe the song hints at the breakup between Rodrigo and her High School Musical: The Musical: The Series co-star Joshua Bassett, causing the track to further ingrain itself in TikTok culture. That\u2019s not all; some fans believe Rodrigo\u2019s song throws some subtle shade toward actress Sabrina Carpenter, who some believed was getting close with Bassett in a romantic way. All the hype around the song cumulated in a hilarious SNL sketch dedicated to the breakup anthem on February 21, which featured Bridgerton star Reg\u00e9-Jean Page (and a gut-busting scene where he and the whole SNL crew belted out the song\u2019s most emotional bits). Needless to say, Rodrigo was absolutely pumped that her song had gotten enough attention to be featured on the late night comedy show \u2014 and on her birthday, no less!

Rodrigo isn\u2019t the only party involved in the song\u2019s popularity to have reacted to the sketch, either; Bassett also shared his reaction to the news in a TikTok, where he appeared to poke fun at his status as the \u201cex-boyfriend\u201d of the whole situation. Needless to say, Rodrigo\u2019s highly-viral hit has made for an unexpected \u2014 but certainly not unwelcome \u2014 cultural moment that has kicked off 2021 with a certified (if tear-jerking) banger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
