Rodri Doesn't Have Instagram, Barcelona Fans Mistake Olivia Rodrigo's Account!
American pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo unexpectedly found herself in the midst of football excitement, as her Instagram account was inundated with messages from Barcelona fans celebrating the signing of Spanish star Rodri.
The reason was simple yet strange; Rodri, Barcelona's new player, does not have a personal account on social media. As a result, some fans searched for a name similar to his and ended up at the account of singer Olivia Rodrigo.
The singer's posts quickly turned into a congratulatory board for Barcelona's new player, as fans began writing messages like "Welcome to Barcelona" and congratulating Rodri on his transfer, despite the account actually belonging to a musical star unrelated to the deal.
Interestingly, this confusion is not entirely new, as Olivia Rodrigo's account faced a similar situation in 2024 after Rodri won the Ballon d'Or. However, this time the comments have a celebratory tone due to the player's transfer to Barcelona.
The irony has increased due to a previous business relationship between Olivia Rodrigo and Barcelona, as her name appeared in a collaboration with the club on a special shirt this year, making the mix-up between the two names even more amusing for fans.
Thus, Olivia has, without intending to, become one of the most associated names with Rodri's transfer on social media.
