Olivia Rodrigo Opens up About Being a People Pleaser and Shedding That Trait

In a recent GQ interview, the “Happier” artist admitted that while she has always been a “people pleaser,” she feels that she is starting to grow out of that personality-defining trait.

Rodrigo explained that when she was younger, she was very agreeable, often saying, “Oh, if that’s what you think, great.” She quickly realized that was “the kiss of death in music.”

The pop star remembers working on “Deja Vu” and holding her ground to convince producers how she wanted the chorus to sound. She said, “Every time I listen to it, I’m like, ‘I’m glad that I stuck to my guns on that one.’”

When GQ asked where the people-pleasing came from, Rodrigo responded, “Being a girl.” She explained, “I think women are praised for always being nice and kind and helpful.” The “Favorite Crime” singer revealed, “That’s something that I’ve had to sort of outgrow as I grew up as a young woman in the world — that notion of being sweet is the end-all.”

Rodrigo said she now realizes that that type of thinking created a lot of uncomfortable situations in her career where she wasn’t capable of sticking up for herself. The young artist admitted, “I didn’t advocate for myself or treat myself well.”

Rodrigo acknowledged that as a celebrity, “every little action that you do is magnified.” She admits to being afraid to speak out against something she didn’t like, saying, “people are so quick to call successful women divas.”

Rodrigo said it is easier for her now that she has learned “the importance of separating person versus persona.” She now knows that “when people who don’t know me are criticizing me, they’re criticizing my persona, not my person.” – Source
