AceShowbiz - The pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo is preparing to release her latest single, Drop Dead, this April. The announcement came via an Instagram post on Tuesday, April 7, where she revealed the song's release date as Friday, April 17.
In the Instagram photo, Olivia Rodrigo is seen blowing a large bubble with gum, sporting a white shirt that features the words "drop dead" along the collar. This visual teaser accompanies the confirmation of the upcoming single's title and launch date.
This new track arrives shortly after Olivia Rodrigo unveiled details about her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. The album announcement was made on April 2, just days before the single's release.
The singer shared the album’s whimsical cover art, which shows her leaning back on a swing against a pale blue sky backdrop. Alongside the image, she revealed the album title and set the official release date for June 12.
Expressing her excitement, Olivia Rodrigo wrote, "I am so proud of this record and I can't wait for you to hear it." She also noted that the album is already available for preorder, inviting fans to secure their copies ahead of launch.
You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love follows Olivia Rodrigo's 2023 Billboard 200-topping album Guts. The lead single from Guts, titled "Vampire," marked her third Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, following earlier chart-toppers "Drivers License" and "Good 4 U" from her debut album Sour, which also reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The upcoming single Drop Dead is expected to build on Olivia Rodrigo's continued success as a leading figure in pop music, coming just weeks before her highly anticipated new album lands in stores and streaming platforms worldwide.
