Olivia Rodrigo had a heartfelt surprise in store for fans in Lexington, Ky., who attended her Guts World Tour.
On Wednesday, July 24, the "Lacy" singer brought out Tyler Childers — who's from Kentucky — for a surprise duet of his 2019 hit song "All Your'n" at Rupp Arena.
During the performance, Rodrigo, 21, and Childers, 33, took turns singing the country ballad's chorus line by line as the crowd sang along.
“There ain’t two ways around it / There ain’t no tryin’ ’bout it / I’m all your’n and you’re all mine," they sang.
Childers is the latest musician to join Rodrigo onstage during her tour. In May, the "Vampire" musician brought Lily Allen out at her show in London's O2 Arena and they performed Allen's 2006 hit "Smile."
"The best day of my whole career was when I got to sing with her a few years ago at Glastonbury," Rodrigo told the crowd before introducing Allen, who she performed with at Glastonbury in 2022. "I absolutely adore her. Would you please give it up for Ms. Lily Allen!"
On Friday, April 5, Rodrigo brought Noah Kahanout at her Madison Square Garden show in New York City to perform a rendition of his hit "Stick Season."
"Stick season at madison square garden ????. @noahkahanmusic is the greatest of allll -
ll time !!!!!!" Rodrigo wrote alongside avideo shared on Instagramof their duet.
In the comments section, Kahan, 27, praised the moment, writing, "Better than the original!! Olivia you’re a star best show I’ve ever seen."
The duet was a full-circle moment after Rodrigo performed a cover of "Stick Season" during an appearance on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. In November 2023, he returned the favor by performing Rodrigo's "Lacy" on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge.
Rodrigo, who's touring in support of her sophomore album Guts, achieved a new milestone while out on the road: her debut album Sour, which she released in 2021, became the most streamed album by a female artist in Spotify history on Thursday, May 16.
Per the release, Sour "earned the most U.S. audio streams for a female debut album ever and broke the record for the most-streamed album in a week by a female artist on Spotify."
Up next, Rodrigo will perform in Kansas City, Mo., on Friday, July 26. She'll continue to perform across the country through August before jetting off to Thailand, Korea, China, Japan, Singapore and Australia. Her final show will be held in Sydney on Tuesday, Oct. 22.
