Olivia Rodrigo handed out birth control at one of her recent concerts.
On March 12, fans were able to get their hands on two boxes of Julia, an emergency contraception which is also known as a morning after pill, free condoms and a QR code that linked to abortion resources and the Missouri Abortion Fund.
Fans have also reported that they were given stickers at the event and according to reports, Olivia is also donating a portion of her tour ticket’s sales to abortion services across the US. Over on X, formerly known as Twitter, fans had a lot to say about Olivia’s gesture.

One person simply wrote “omg yes” while someone else sarcastically posted: “Oh no, a young girl is trying to help and educate young people about safe sexual intercourse, birth control and ways they could have an abortion safely and also provides them with said birth control and condoms for free if they want them. What a devil.”
Someone else added: “Not an Olivia Rodrigo fan but her giving out free [birth control] and condoms is amazing! I love seeing it, especially in my home state,” before adding a clapping emoji for good measure.
However some people were against the idea as one X user wrote: “Everyone who is applauding Olivia Rodrigo for handing out condoms and morning after pills at her concerts needs to know that [eight] year old girls are her fans and wanted to attend her concert. Sorry but I absolutely hate this.”
Fans who attended the show shared pictures of the offerings which included a purple sticker with the words: “Funding abortions? It’s a good idea, right?” which seem to reference her song Bad Idea, Right?
Rodrigo has been outspoken about women’s rights in the past and during her Glastonbury performance back in 2022, which was on the day the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, she had a poignant message for the justices. Olivia and British singer Lily Allen dedicated Allen’s song F*** You to those who helped overturn the decision.
At the time, Olivia said she was “devastated and terrified” as “so many women and girls are going to die” because of the ruling.
