Olivia Rodrigo's airport mix‑up: Mistaken identity leads to police ordeal

Olivia Rodrigo is an American singer and actress known to the younger generation. She rose to fame with her role as Nini in "High School Musical: The Series," where she showcased her beautiful voice and impressive musical talent. After leaving the Disney series, she embarked on a solo singing career. In 2021, she released her debut album "Sour," followed by "GUTS" in 2023. Both albums were well-received by fans and critics alike.

On Tuesday, October 29, Olivia Rodrigo appeared on Jimmy Fallon's show to promote the premiere of a Netflix film featuring her concert during the international "GUTS" tour. During her chat with the host, she recounted several stories from her life. One story, in particular, captured a lot of attention. It involved a situation where the police came to her door and took her in for a serious interrogation.

During her conversation with Jimmy Fallon, Olivia Rodrigo shared an unusual experience. She was at an airport in Canada with her team, preparing to head to the United States, when the police unexpectedly appeared. An officer approached her, saying he needed to speak with her before escorting her to an interrogation room. He asked if she had ever been arrested. She replied no, which seemed to confuse him.

"There's a big cop with a gun and he's like, 'Have you ever been arrested?' I'm like, 'No, I haven't been arrested.' And he's like, 'Are you sure?' I'm gaslighting myself? I'm like, oh my God. Maybe I was arrested and I didn't know it. After 30 minutes of interrogation, he looks at me and he goes, 'What's your name?' I go, 'Olivia Rodrigo, R-O-D-R-I-G-O'. And he's like, 'Oh, there's a girl who looks just like you, that's your same age that's been arrested multiple times. And her name's Olivia Rodriguez,'" Olivia said.
