When it comes to securing a front row seat at your idol’s concert, some fans are willing to go to any lengths. Singer Olivia Rodrigo shared one of these techniques – and it turns out to be particularly unsavory.

Being a fan, a real one, sometimes involves sacrifices. In particular his pride and all self-esteem. This is the case of some fans of the singer Olivia Rodrigo who, passing through the British radio station KISS FM as part of the promotion of her new album, revealed one of the (rather sordid) techniques used by spectators to secure a special place at her concerts.

Needless to say, the jaws of the hosts, Tyler West and Chloe Burrows, almost dropped. “This is insane behavior!†Tyler says indignantly, when his co-host whispers: “I can’t believe it.â€

“It’s a bit like going down the ball in New York for New Year’s Eve,” explains Olivia, referring to this tradition in effect every January 1st in the Big Apple. “Everyone wears diapers, they sit there all day.”

“You’re kidding us,” Tyler replies, but the singer insists:

Indeed, the practice is not completely unknown and has taken various forms over the years. To cite just one example: the Sadium Pal, an original device from the 90s that men could attach to their penis and inside which they could urinate during sporting events, to avoid endless queues for the toilet.

During Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, some concertgoers also posted videos on TikTok admitting to wearing adult diapers, so as not to miss any of the show.

One thing is certain: Olivia Rodrigo is not ready to finish sniffing the scent of feces emanating from the front row. While she has just unveiled her third album You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Lovethe young artist is about to embark on a vast tour across North America and Europe, which will last from September to May 2027. Strength and honor to her. (mbr)
