wrote in his review of the film, “Olivia Rodrigo is, among other things, every inch a traditional rock star — and I mean that as an extreme compliment. In ‘Driving Home 2 U,’ just look at how she singes the screen in ‘Jealousy, Jealousy,’ grabbing the mic and singing with scalding punk-grunge moves as her band, composed of five women, plays like a house on fire.”

I think you’d better follow Route 66!” Sure enough, after pausing for plenty of photo opportunities and passing a pink vintage Ford Bronco, the entry to the afterparty was made clear by a large neon motel sign.

As the night wound down, it became apparent that Rodrigo wasn’t going to come out again, though fans continued to crowd around the roped-off section.
