The actor shared several behind-the-scenes photos of the singer before her headlining performance
Louis Partridge shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Olivia Rodrigo‘s headlining set at Glastonbury on Sunday night. The Disclaimer actor, who is currently dating Rodrigo, wrote in the caption, “I hope you caught Olivia’s show last night. A truly special performance on such a huge scale.”
He continued, “She worked her ass off for it and couldn’t be more deserving of all her success and for the great crowd that was watching. What a moment. #glastonberry.”
Rodrigo responded to the post by noting, “glastonBERRY ilysm.” Her comment is a reference to a moment during her set before performing her song “So American” when she joked about the way she pronounces the name of the festival.
“I was falling in love with this boy from London, and as we were getting to know each other, we discovered all of these cross-cultural differences,” she told the audience. “He would make fun of me for pronouncing things very American, like, ‘I’m headlining Glaston-berry!’”
Sunday evening marked Rodrigo’s first time headlining Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage. “Holy fucking shit, this is the most people I’ve ever seen in my entire life,” she told the audience, per Variety. “This is a dream come true, I actually can’t believe this is my life right now.”
Rodrigo used the performance as an opportunity to collaborate with Robert Smith. The singer brought the Cure musician onstage to duet two songs, 1992 hit “Friday I’m in Love” and 1987 tune “Just Like Heaven.”
Last week, Rodrigo teamed up with Ed Sheeran for a performance of “The A Team” during a sold-out show in London’s Hyde Park. She also covered Fontaines D.C.’s hit “I Love You” in Dublin as part of her performance at Marlay Park. Rodrigo’s tour continues in Manchester tonight before she heads to Europe for a series of shows and festival appearances.
