Olivia Rodrigo’s Bizarre First Date Question Has The Internet Divided

Olivia Rodrigo has revealed the peculiar question she always asks men during first dates, and her response left the internet reeling.
In an interview with Netflix, the pop star, 21, was apparently asked about the “red flags” she avoids in men, prompting her to explain how she weeds out the guys she’s not interested in dating.
“The biggest red flag, OK, this is a very oddly specific question that I ask guys on first dates,” Rodrigo said in the clip posted Friday. “I always ask them if they would want to go to space.”
The “Drivers License” singer added with a smile, “And if they say yes, I don’t date them.”
But according to Rodrigo, she has a good reason for sidestepping the guys who deliver an undesirable answer to her question.
“I just think if you want to go to space, you’re a little too full of yourself,” she explained.
Rodrigo’s comments left social media users on X (formerly Twitter) with differing opinions. While some people called her question “so real,” others slammed the songwriter for “judging” others based on their dreams.
Olivia Rodrigo saying that a guy wanting to go to space is a red flag is so real because like if a girl wanted to go to space i’d be like slay girlboss but if a guy wanted to go to space i’d be like why…haven’t you done enough.
olivia rodrigo getting hate for saying it’s a red flag if men want to go to space but like … have you met the men that want to go to space
what’s even weirder is judging a person by their dreams like not everything revolves around you😭
girl what 😭 i mean if a guy wants to go to space that just means he’s curious about the universe and stuff…
This is so random?😭😭 What does dating someone has to do with going to space or not omg
i agree w olivia rodrigo and space not bc they r full of themselves but even thinking ab space makes me feel sick so i couldn’t date u if u wanted to go

Among the replies, Elon Musk’s ex, Canadian singer Grimes, entered the chat, seemingly taking a dig at the SpaceX mogul by agreeing with Rodrigo’s opinion.
“It’s true,” Grimes wrote on X in response to the singer’s interview. “Only women should be going to space.”
It’s true. Only women should be going to space.
As far as Rodrigo’s dating life, she’s been most recently romantically linked to English actor Louis Partridge. The pair ignited relationship rumors last year after they were spotted sharing a smooch in New York City in December.
