Olivia Rodrigo shares a laughable yet nerve-wracking story of nearly being arrested in Canada after being mistaken for Olivia Rodriguez, a frequent offender. Read on for her full comical account!
Olivia Rodrigo’s Hilarious Near-Arrest Story: Mistaken for a Criminal in Canada!
During a recent interview, Olivia Rodrigo recounted a rather hilarious—and slightly terrifying—incident in Canada, where she almost ended up in jail due to a case of mistaken identity. Apparently, a certain Olivia Rodriguez (note the “z”!) was on law enforcement’s radar, and our beloved pop star was nearly caught in the mix!
“They Thought I Was a Criminal!”
Olivia explained how it all started when she casually showed her passport to the Canadian police and thought she was all set. Little did she know, trouble was brewing. Shortly after, there was a knock on her door, and she figured it was just a friendly request for an autograph. “I thought maybe someone’s daughter wanted my signature,” she shared. So, with her usual cheerful self, she went to answer… only to be greeted by police officers and an officer with a very serious look—and an even more serious gun!
“Have You Ever Been Arrested?”
Olivia’s smile quickly faded as she was escorted to a questioning room, where she faced an officer who hit her with a question straight out of a thriller: “Have you ever been arrested?” Rodrigo, trying not to laugh or cry, replied, “No.” The officer, however, wasn’t convinced and pressed on, “Are you sure?” At that moment, Olivia’s mind started racing, and she half-joked, “I even started to wonder if I had been arrested and just didn’t know it!”
Mistaken Identity at Its Finest
After a solid 30 minutes of questioning, the officer finally circled back to confirm her name. Olivia carefully spelled out “Rodrigo,” emphasizing the lack of a “z.” The officer finally connected the dots and said, “There’s someone named Olivia Rodriguez who’s been arrested many times.” And at that moment, Olivia was officially not amused: “I was so annoyed!”
Lesson Learned? Always Double-Check the “z”!
Thankfully, the situation ended with nothing more than a funny story and Olivia’s palpable relief. But next time, she’ll be sure to clarify her name loud and clear—and Canada’s police will certainly think twice before mixing up the Olivia’s again.
