First she's sour then she's sweet — inside the pop star's sold-out Madison Square Garden show.
is playing the first of four sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden. Moments after she takes the stage, as she erratically spins to the distorted chords of her witty, toxic-love ballad, “bad idea right?”, you can almost see where the former Disney darling ends and the larger-than-life stage performer begins.
She levitates over our heads while sitting on a crescent moon; she disappears into the stage throughout the night, reappearing with an evolving costume of sequined mini-outfits. Her all-female band plays viscously — giving songs like “good 4 u” and “brutal” a raw rock slant that can’t be felt or heard while listening to them in the comfort of your home.
As the last sounds of the night play, and Rodrigo greets her fans at the barrier, hugging them and thanking them, it’s easy to see she’ll be around for a long time, slowly evolving with her honest writing, shifting from the teenage dream to a fully grown pop-star reality. For now, as the full breadth of her pop prowess takes over one of the world's most famed stages, she's a living testament to leaving the idealized version of pop purity behind.
