Olivia Rodrigo [1] is a very familiar name after her single "Drivers License" went pretty much viral — so much so that Saturday Night Live [2] did a hilarious skit [3] back in February that had even Rodrigo herself impressed.

Fast-forward to May, and Rodrigo's performed the chart-topping track at this year's BRIT Awards ceremony, sounding absolutely incredible. She took to the stage in a flowing red gown, with a stripped-back performance of the soothing single that featured a real-life harp player. That's right, an actual harp. Fans of Rodrigo were incredibly proud of her performance, especially since she received a whole host of cheers from the audience, made up entirely of key workers.

Other performers on the night included the likes of Arlo Parks [4], BRIT rising star Griff [5], The Weeknd, Coldplay, Dua Lipa, Headie One, and a special performance by Rag 'n' Bone Man and P!nk, featuring the NHS Greenwich choir.
