Open Post: Hosted By Olivia Rodrigo And Natalie Imbruglia Performing “Torn”
Your niece/daughter/granddaughter’s favorite singer, Olivia Rodrigo, is currently touring her debut album, Sour. Tonight she wraps up the 48-show tour with her second concert in London at the Eventim Apollo. But it was last night’s audience who got to witness a surprise duet with the woman, the myth, the legend herself, Natalie Imbruglia. Olivia and Natalie came together to sing the best song of all time, “Torn.” 47-year-old Natalie’s version of “Torn” (apparently it’s a cover, the original was by the band Ednaswap?!) was released in 1997 and 19-year-old Olivia wasn’t born for another six years. But just cuz Olivia is practically a fetus doesn’t mean she can’t appreciate the golden oldies of yore.
Here are some videos of the surprise duet:
Today Olivia posted this picture to her Instagram Stories, with the caption, “Such an honor to sing with the insanely talented insanely kind @natalie_imbruglia, what a dream”:

When Olivia introduced Natalie to her fans, she said that “Torn” was one of her “favorite songs of all time.” This isn’t a surprise. A few nights ago she was filmed singing it at a random dive bar in Manchester. And, in case any of you Americans are scandalized by a teenager at a bar, the drinking age in England is just 18. Because ~*Europe*~:
Why yes Olivia Rodrigo, of course you can turn up at Bunny Jacksons on a bloody Sunday evening and play a song for a laugh before our 3rd set. pic.twitter.com/mpMbpkRlLq

I wonder if Natalie will make another appearance at Olivia’s final show tonight. Or maybe Olivia will bring out another surprise duet partner. Something tells me it won’t be Courtney Love…Â
