Olivia Rodrigo, the talented pop star known for her emotional ballads, recently found herself at the center of an amusing TikTok trend. A user named Dre went viral with his video review of Olivia’s custom Crumbl cookie, dubbing her as “that Mexican girl that be crying.” But here’s the twist: Olivia isn’t Mexican; she’s of Filipino descent. In a delightful turn of events, she decided to play along and share her own hilarious take on the meme.
The Viral Video
Dre’s TikTok video featured him taste-testing Olivia’s limited-edition cookie at Crumbl. He mistakenly referred to her as “Olivia Rodriguez” and asked his followers, “Y’all know that little Mexican girl that be singing all them sad songs?” The internet had a good laugh, and Dre gave the cookie a resounding “zero out of 10.”
Olivia’s Response
Olivia, ever the good sport, recreated the trend in her own TikTok video. As the audio played, she lip-synced Dre’s words: “Olivia Rodriguez, that little Mexican girl that be crying.” With a playful smile, she took a bite of her purple jam-filled cookie. Despite Dre’s low rating, Olivia disagreed, writing in her caption, “idk i think its rlly good.” Clearly, she’s a fan of her Guts-themed treat.
Setting the Record Straight
While Dre’s video provided entertainment, it’s essential to clarify that Olivia Rodrigo is not Mexican. Her father’s side of the family hails from the Philippines, not Mexico. So, Dre, let’s get the facts straight! Olivia’s tailor-made cookie has been popping up in Crumbl stores along the trail of her sold-out Guts World Tour, which kicked off in February. Fans can enjoy the Guts cookie during specific tour stops, and it will be available at all Crumbl stores between August 19 and 24.
Olivia Rodrigo’s ability to embrace humor and turn a viral moment into a playful response showcases her down-to-earth personality. As her tour continues, fans eagerly await more delightful surprises from this rising star.
