Taylor Swift Is So Proud of Her ‘Baby’ Olivia Rodrigo for ‘Drivers License’

Olivia Rodrigo’s debut single, “Drivers License,” has gotten a co-sign from Taylor Swift.

The singer and actress found her song right below Swift’s new deluxe Evermore tracks on the iTunes chart and understandably got emotional about it on Friday (Jan. 8).

“next to taylor on the us i tunes chart i’m in a puddle of tears,” she wrote on Instagram.

And then Swift herself commented on Rodrigo’s post: “I say that’s my baby and I’m really proud.” (The choice of words is an oft-used phrase on memes made by Swifties quoting Swift’s own mom, Andrea, from an old interview clip.)

“what is breathing,” Rodrigo added in another post, an adorable reaction to Swift’s comment.

Swift’s words of encouragement show that she’s had Rodrigo on her radar for at least a few weeks. Her comment seems to be a wink to another post from the “Drivers License” singer’s account: on Swift’s Dec. 13 birthday, Rodrigo celebrated with a photo of the pop star holding many Grammys and the note “happy birthday mom.”
