In a bold move promoting reproductive health, pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo offered free Plan B and condoms to attendees at her recent concert in St. Louis. This initiative by Rodrigo ties into a broader discussion on the availability and stigma surrounding contraception and emergency contraception, particularly in light of recent legislative actions affecting abortion rights and access in various states. Rodrigo’s effort has been met with an array of reactions across social media platforms, ranging from support to criticism.

This initiative is part of Olivia Rodrigo’s commitment made earlier in February to facilitate access to contraception for her fans during live performances. Whether this will become a staple feature of her tours or a one-time gesture remains to be seen, but the action has undoubtedly sparked conversation among Rodrigo’s young fan base, and beyond, about the intersection of pop culture and personal health choices. While some might see it as a controversial after-party favor, others are applauding Rodrigo for striking a chord in the reproductive rights discussion.
