Performing onstage in front of about 200,000 people, Olivia Rodrigo made her feelings about the five Supreme Court justices who helped overturn Roe v. Wade abundantly clear.
“I’d like to dedicate my next song for the Supreme Court five justices who demonstrated that they really don’t care at all about freedom.” the California-born pop star said onstage at the 2022 Glastonbury Festival in England on June 25, a day after the top court’s 5-4 vote to reverse the landmark 1973 ruling that established women’s constitutional right to abortion in the United States.
Rodrigo stated, “This is a song that goes out for the justices.” Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh. We hate you.”
The singer and guest co-performer Lily Allen then launched into a rendition of the British star’s 2009 song “F–k you.” Many audience members followed Allen’s lead to make middle finger gestures as they sang along.
