While on stage at Governors Ball, Olivia Rodrigo surprised fans, as she brought out Talking Heads' David Byrne out on stage. You can check out footage of this below.


On the night, Rodrigo performed a range of hits including, ‘vampire’, ‘jealously, jealousy’ and ‘traitor’, undeterred by the rain, which had delayed the start of her live set at the festival by one hour. Day 2 of the festival saw a four hour delay due to the conditions.

At the end, the singer had one more surprise up her sleeve, introducing David Byrne to the stage, performing Talking Heads' classic, 'Burning Down the House', as the two appeared in coordinate outfits, with Rodrigo wearing an all-red set, while Byrne donned a white T-shirt underneath red overalls.

As they traded lines in the song, Rodrigo attempted Byrne's iconic jaunty moves, bending her knees and running in place.

In January last year, Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong said that he would love to collaborate with Olivia Rodrigo at some stage.

“I hear it but don’t go out buying any of those records or stream it. It does pass me by. When I hear it, I think it sounds good", Armstrong said at the time. More on this from Nova here.
