Olivia Rodrigo addresses 'babydoll dress' backlash, discusses 'childlike' outfit criticism-here's how the 'Drop Dead' singer responded

Singer Olivia Rodrigo expresses distress over criticism of a babydoll dress worn during a performance. She notes the irony of being deemed inappropriate in a covered-up outfit considered 'childlike', while more revealing attire faced no controversy. Rodrigo argues this reflects a harmful culture that blames women for sexualization. She advocates for women to dress freely without fear of misinterpretation.
