Olivia Rodrigo reacts to Supreme Court's ruling over Roe V. Wade

Singer Olivia Rodrigo spills on Supreme Court’s recent ruling on the Roe v. Wade decision regarding abortion rights.

On Saturday, the Driver’s License singer took the stage at the UK's Glastonbury Festival with her guest star Lily Allen to send a message to five Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn abortion law in the U.S.

"I'm devastated and terrified," Rodrigo, 19, told the crowd.

"So many women and so many girls are going to die because of this," she shared, The Guardian reports. "I wanted to dedicate this next song to the five members of the Supreme Court who have showed us that at the end of the day, they truly don't give a [explitive] about freedom."

"The song is for the justices: Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh. We hate you! We hate you," she added.

The singer later performed Lily Allen's "[explitive] You" with the artist herself. The collaboration with Allen, 37, happened during Rodrigo's debut at the iconic festival.

"This is actually my first Glastonbury and I'm sharing this stage with Lily, this is the biggest dream come true ever," she said. 

"But I'm also equally as heartbroken about what happened in America yesterday."
