Olivia Rodrigo Reveals Note Jack White Left in Her ‘SNL’ Dressing Room

Olivia Rodrigo was sent on a scavenger hunt by Jack White, who left her a handwritten note hidden in the Saturday Night Live dressing room.

Rodrigo made an appearance on The Tonight Show on Thursday (April 30), where the late-night talk show shared backstage footage of the pop star rummaging through her SNL dressing room in search of the note from the Detroit rock legend.

“I love Jack White. He’s, like, my hero,” Rodrigo gushed to host Jimmy Fallon. “He’s the coolest guy ever. Wonderful person. Always stands up for what’s right … He sent me a text and he’s like, ‘Look up!’ Like, ‘Keep your head up. You’re gonna find something.’”

The hilarious clip showed the pop star in a pink dress poking holes in the ceiling tiles and letting out a shriek when she finally discovered the envelope in a closet.

White left the 23-year-old a yellow flower and a handwritten loose-leaf note that read, “Kill it kid,” and a signature from the White Stripes frontman.

“Isn’t that sweet?” she told Fallon and the audience. “That’s my little good luck charm.”

White and Rodrigo’s friendship dates back to 2022, when the Detroit native posted a photo to Instagram with the “Vampire” singer. “I had the chance to meet a talented singer and musician today named @OliviaRodrigo, she’s very cool, very real and very much a lover of music,” he raved at the time. “She’s also introducing another set of youth to the love of vinyl records as well. Respect.”

Rodrigo is set for double duty at SNL Saturday (May 2), where she’ll play host and serve as the musical guest. The pop star will be performing her Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit single “Drop Dead” and another unreleased track from her forthcoming album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, which arrives on June 12.

Rodrigo also announced her 65-date Unraveled Tour on Thursday (April 30), which will take her through North America and Europe starting this fall.
