In my mind she’s dancing “monster mash”
Good 4 Olivia Rodrigo!!
On Thursday, May 16, the pop star’s debut album Sour — which she released in 2021 — became the most streamed album by a female artist in #Spotify history.
According to a press release, Sour “earned the most U.S. audio streams for a female debut album ever and broke the record for the most-streamed album in a week by a female artist on Spotify.”
The album also entered the Billboard 200 at No. 1 and became “the longest-running debut album in the chart’s top 10 of the 21st century.”
A rep for Rodrigo confirmed to PEOPLE that the record has earned more than 21 million consumption units worldwide.
The mirror has been a canvas of contradictions, a place where my perception battles with reality. For the longest time, it felt like an unfriendly territory, reflecting back the flaws I was taught to see. Each glance seemed to amplify insecurities, making it a struggle to find comfort in my own skin.
But within this struggle emerged a silent revolution—a journey toward self-acceptance. It was a challenging expedition, navigating through the maze of doubts and societal expectations. Yet, in the midst of this turmoil, I discovered an incredible strength—the strength to embrace myself, flaws and all.
Learning to love myself wasn’t an overnight revelation. It demanded patience, compassion, and a radical shift in perspective. I began to see the mirror not as a critic but as a storyteller, showcasing the unique tale of my existence.
In this journey, I found liberation from the suffocating grasp of idealized beauty standards. I learned that my worth isn’t defined by the reflections in the mirror but by the love and respect I cultivate for myself.
Today, as I stand before the mirror, I see beyond the surface. I see resilience, beauty, and an incredible journey of self-discovery. Embracing my imperfections has become a testament to the love I hold for myself—a love that triumphs over self-doubt and radiates in the reflection staring back at me.

Reflecting on this year, I’m filled with an overwhelming sense of gratitude and pride. This year has been a tapestry of remarkable experiences, pushing the boundaries of my comfort zone and reshaping my life in profound ways.
My journey through the United States for three months was nothing short of transformative. It wasn’t just about exploring new landscapes or savoring diverse cultures; it was a voyage that sculpted my perspective and opened my eyes to the vastness of the world.
Returning home to Italy marked the beginning of a new chapter—a life change that I embraced wholeheartedly. Amidst the familiar streets and beloved traditions, I found the courage to challenge myself, breaking free from the confines of routine and embracing change with open arms.
Amidst this whirlwind, I’ve achieved milestones that once seemed distant. From personal growth to professional accomplishments, each success stands as a testament to my resilience and unwavering dedication.
This year has been a mosaic of lessons, teaching me the beauty of embracing change and the richness of new experiences. It’s a celebration of resilience, adaptability, and the sheer joy of conquering challenges.
So, let’s raise a toast to the journey, the learnings, and the accomplishments. Let’s honor the courage it took to step into the unknown and the determination that fueled our successes. And may this year’s triumphs be the stepping stones to a future filled with even more remarkable achievements.
Thank you 2023 💙
