Despite having been on the road for the better part of a year, Olivia Rodrigo<\/a> is showing no signs of slowing down. \u201cI won’t say too much, but I think 2026 is going to be a busy year for me,\u201d she tells NYLON, her smile clearly audible through the phone. \u201cI\u2019ve been having a lot of fun dreaming things up.\u201d<\/p>\n

You\u2019d think she\u2019d want to prioritize rest after wrapping up her headline-making festival tour this summer, where she performed for hundreds of thousands of fans across Glastonbury<\/a>, Lollapalooza<\/a>, Osheaga, Governors Ball<\/a>, and more. But alas, instead of taking a well-deserved hiatus, Rodrigo returned to the stage yet again for a special evening at the Park Avenue Armory on Oct. 23. An exclusive offering for American Express\u2019 Platinum and Business Platinum cardholders, the pop star transformed her most explosive radio hits<\/a> into intimate renditions harkening back to her singer-songwriter roots, playing acoustic versions of \u201cDeja Vu,\u201d \u201cGood 4 U,\u201d and more.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve been playing all these festivals and arenas and it’s been so wonderful, but I’m really excited to play a smaller venue,\u201d she says. \u201cIt’s going to be a treat to get to be so up close and personal with the audience members, and get to strip the songs down to the bare bones and perform them like that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ahead of the big night, NYLON caught up with Rodrigo to chat about her recent tour, the joy of attending concerts as a fan, Audrey Hobert<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n

I was lucky enough to see your set at Gov Ball this year. How was the tour for you? <\/p>\n

It was so incredible for so many reasons. I really enjoyed all the special guests that I was so lucky to have come out with me, and I feel so grateful that they were so generous and kind enough to come and sing with me. I loved singing with David Byrne, and I loved singing with Weezer. Weezer is one of my favorite bands right now. <\/p>\n

I especially really loved singing with Robert Smith from The Cure<\/a>. That was such a special moment and one that I’ll probably remember for the rest of my life. I think that day and that performance is one of the happiest days of my life. I\u2019ll always hold a special place in my heart for that day.<\/p>\n

Have you seen any good shows since concluding your tour?<\/p>\n

Oh my gosh. I’ve been seeing so many shows. I saw Coldplay the other day in London, which was so spectacular. Chris Martin is just such a lovely person. I saw Nine Inch Nails<\/a> at The Forum, which was epic. I love Nine Inch Nails so much. I saw Dua Lipa<\/a> the other day, that was great. I saw my friend Chappell Roan<\/a> the other day too, which is obviously always an incredible show. She’s such a great performer. It’s so much more fun.<\/p>\n

I always say, every time that I enter someone else’s tour, I just say a little prayer. I’m like, “Oh wow. I’m so grateful that I could just drink a glass of wine and just chill. I’m not nervous right now.” I just always remember to be grateful that I’m not having weird stage fright.<\/p>\n

That’s so cute. In honor of your partnership, can you give us a rundown of three of the most recent purchases that you’ve made with your Amex?<\/p>\n

I had a really great matcha this morning in New York with my friend. My first use of my new mirrored Amex Platinum card was I was paying a parking meter with my friend. I whipped it out, and they were very impressed with how beautiful the card was. I felt very fancy. While I was in the studio [the other day] I was just scrolling on some vintage consignment store thing and bought an old skirt.<\/p>\n

Is there an artist whose show you\u2019ll be buying tickets to soon?<\/p>\n

I’m really into Audrey Hobert<\/a>. I’ve hung out with her a few times and she’s just the loveliest girl ever. I’m playing her album over and over and over again in my car.<\/p>\n
