This was Olivia Rodrigo with special guest Lily Allen singing “Fuck You” to the U.S. Supreme Court the day after they overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022:
What a badass. Huge props to Olivia Rodrigo, former Disney star, for caring about the future of her young fans while performing in Missouri this week, at the buckle of the Bible Belt. <a href=”https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/mar/13/olivia-rodrigo-concert-morning-after-pill”>Via the Guardian:</a>
<blockquote>Madelyn Ritter expected to leave the St Louis date of Olivia Rodrigo’s Guts tour with merch – she didn’t expect to also go home with some free emergency contraception.
But that’s just what she saw upon entering the stadium. There, right by the women’s bathrooms, was a table where concertgoers could donate to abortion funds and pick up free condoms or morning-after pills, also called Plan B.
“We noticed it immediately,” said Ritter, who is 25 (and, as she jokes, “too old” to love the 21-year-old pop star). “I was like ‘what’s this about?’ They told me it was free, so my sister, her friend and I all took some. I personally don’t need it, but I’m going to save it in case something bad happens.”
Last month, in conjunction with her world tour, Rodrigo launched the Fund 4 Good campaign, which aims to protect women’s and girls’ reproductive rights. A portion of sales from the tour will go toward the fund. As part of the initiative, Rodrigo paired with the <a href=”https://abortionfunds.org/donate/”>National Network of Abortion Funds</a>, which connected her with local chapters at various stops on the tour.</blockquote>

Hi, Plan B is not an abortion drug. Legal and safe access to abortion actually helps women because the lack of access makes all the things you mentioned so much harder. Abortion bans are dangerous and @oliviarodrigo is awesome for fighting back against those.
