Olivia Rodrigo responds to babydoll dress criticism: ‘It shows how we normalize pedophilia in our culture’

The pop singer said that suggestions that a recent outfit was ‘childlike’ were rooted in sexist attitudes toward women

Olivia Rodrigo has responded to controversy over a recent babydoll dress she wore while performing on stage in Spain.

The singer faced backlash online after she wore a short puffy dress with a floral pattern while performing her recent single Drop Dead at Barcelona’s Teatre Grec on 8 May. She also wears a similar style dress on the cover of her upcoming album.

“That’s been making me so upset,” Rodrigo said in an interview with the New York Times’ Popcast.

Olivia Rodrigo Addresses Babydoll Dress Criticism: ‘It Shows How We Really Normalize Pedophilia in Our Culture’

Olivia Rodrigo has spoken about the online controversy surrounding her recent choice to wear a babydoll dress, stating that the logic behind the criticism showed how “we really normalize pedophilia in our culture” and that she was actually inspired by music icons like Kathleen Hanna and Courtney Love to wear them.

Rodrigo recently donned the dresses in her “Drop Dead” music video and at her recent Spotify’s Billions Club Live concert, eliciting online criticism that the look infantilized and sexualized her. “That’s been making me so upset,” she said in a clip from the New York Times Popcast, which will release the full episode tomorrow. “Not even for me. People can say whatever they want. What’s really disturbing is I have worn outfits that are maybe revealing on stage. I’ve been on stage in a sparkly bra and little shorts, which is my right, that’s fun, I felt cool and comfortable in that. And that wasn’t inappropriate, but me fully covered up in a dress that people deemed to be childlike was inappropriate.”
