Guardian Column Mentions Olivia Rodrigo’s Philanthropy as It Criticizes Taylor Swift’s Role

In a Guardian opinion column, writer Arwa Mahdawi says Olivia Rodrigo raised millions for charities benefiting women and girls.

The column also compares that activity to Mahdawi’s view of Taylor Swift, writing: “I wish Taylor Swift would do the same,” but it does not present new, attributed reporting about Swift’s conduct in the supplied excerpt. The Guardian text also references Rodrigo’s previous vocal stance on Gaza and ICE, as well as the inauguration of Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields festival.
