Oliva Rodrigo sparks bitter debate after handing out free PLAN B to teen concert-goers as part of new ‘reproductive health freedom’ initiative

Oliva Rodrigo made a very clear statement about her stance on reproductive rights after handing out free Plan Bs to teenage concertgoers, sparking a wave of debate among social media users.

One fan – known only as Kin – posted on X, formerly Twitter, a photo of the Julie brand Morning After pill she received at the singer’s concert in St. Louis, Missouri.

The Grammy Award winner, 21, teamed up with the Missouri Abortion Fund — and a pregnancy education text line called Right By You — to hand out emergency contraceptives and condoms during her show earlier this month.

Olivia launched her GUTS world tour in February and announced her Fund 4 Good initiative to “support all women, girls and people seeking reproductive health freedom.”

In the original social media post, shared earlier this week, Kin revealed a snapshot of the products she received, along with a caption that read, “Free Plan B tonight at Olivia Rodrigo in St. Louis.” Thank you Missouri Abortion Fund.”

In response to the initiative, a spokesperson for the Missouri Abortion Fund said Today: “This is just a normal part of what many abortion foundations, including the Missouri Abortion Fund, bring to our community events.

“We want to ensure that Missourians have maximum control over their own reproductive health care.”

They continued, “We appreciate Olivia lifting abortion funds, especially as many funds have seen a decline in donations since 2023.”

The Plan B product normally costs between $40 and $50 Planned Parenthood.

The brand handed out at the star’s recent concert was Julie, which is sold over the counter at several pharmacies.

“Replacing the stigma and shame often associated with emergency contraception with access, exploration and education is core to who we are, and we are grateful for artists like Olivia Rodrigo,” a spokesperson for Julie told the outlet.

And dozens of fans flocked to the comments to share their support for the initiative.

One person wrote: ‘I support Olivia. Not everyone wants to be a mother and cannot provide a good lifestyle for their child, I swear to God.’

Another commented: ‘She’s super awesome working with them to do this! I’m so excited to see her in just over a week! Have fun tonight!’

A third person added: “Respect! This is what puts your money where your mouth is.”

Someone else said: ‘I suddenly (became) a fan without advertising (or) knowing a single song.’

Others said they had nothing but “respect” for the singer and her team for the collaboration, while another wrote: “She couldn’t be cooler.”

But there were others who were hesitant about the move, as one person wrote: ‘This is beyond disturbing and disgusting.’

Another said: ‘This is disgusting and vile.’

Someone else labeled it ‘sick’, while someone simply asked: ‘What the f**k?’

In February, Olivia posted a TikTok expressing her excitement about the launch of her Fund 4 Good initiative.

She captioned the video: “(Fund 4 Good is) a global initiative committed to building a just and equitable future for all women, girls and people seeking reproductive health freedom.”

In the video, she explained: “The fund will directly support community-based nonprofits working on causes such as girls’ education, supporting reproductive rights and preventing gender-based violence.

‘Part of the entire proceeds from ticket sales of the GUTS World Tour goes to Fund 4 Good.

“Thank you so much for supporting this cause that I care so much about and I can’t wait to see you all on tour.”

The singer also posted an Instagram Story with a link to donate to both the Text Right By You and Missouri Abortion Fund organizations.
