Olivia Rodrigo Has an Impressive Net Worth! Find Out How the ‘Vampire’ Singer Makes Money
Since Olivia Rodrigo released her first single, “Drivers License,” in January 2021, the Murrieta, California, native has become a household name. After all, it’s nearly impossible to turn on the radio without hearing one of her hit songs like “vampire,” “bad idea right?” and “Deja Vu.”
What Is Olivia Rodrigo’s Net Worth?

Olivia Rodrigo Is an Actress
While Olivia has no doubt taken the music industry by storm, she comes from an acting background. In 2017, she played a small role on New Girl. Olivia was also cast as Paige Olvera on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark from 2016 to 2019. Shortly thereafter, Olivia landed the role of Nini in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.
Season 2 of the hit TV show ended in July 2021, and fans were dying to know if Olivia would be joining season 3. HSMTMTS showrunner, Tim Federle, weighed in on the fate of her character, Nini, during an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
Tim made it clear that he “would never want High School Musical: The Musical: The Series to stand in the way of” Olivia’s “success and fame.” However, the decision is not Tim’s to make, he said Olivia’s return was a matter of “actor contract stuff.”
“I want the show to succeed, but the actors who make the show are always more important to me than the product,” Tim assured. “I guess what I mean is I want Olivia to be happy. I’d love for her to keep making the show, but at the end of the day, I’m there to be both the head cheerleader of my series and also read the moment and say, ‘Wow, what Olivia is going through feels so unprecedented that I just want to support her in all of her dreams.’”
Olivia confirmed her return during an interview with the Los Angeles Times in December 2021.
Olivia Rodrigo Is a Singer-Songwriter
After “Drivers License” was released in January 2021, Olivia dropped her first studio album, Sour, in May of that year. The following August, she won the MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist and Song of the Year.
In November 2021, it was announced that Olivia was nominated for a whopping seven Grammy Awards, including Best Album, Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year for “Drivers License.” She took home three at the April 2022 ceremony. In addition, Olivia was named as Billboard’s Woman of the Year for 2022.
As far as fans dissecting her love life online using the lyrics in her music, Olivia called it a “songwriter’s dream” during an interview with Elle. “There’s something so powerful in being vulnerable and open, like, ‘This is my life, and I’m f–king sad.’ Or, ‘I’m insecure,'” she gushed. “That’s what makes songwriting so special.”
Olivia released her sophomore album GUTS in September 2023, which instantly earned a standing ovation from fans and critics.
“GUTS bts!!!! making this album was so fun and scary and thrilling and fulfilling and im so happy it’s yours!!!!!” she wrote via Instagram following its release.
