Olivia Rodrigo shared a post reflecting on its creation and subsequent success.‘Sour’ was an immediate smash-hit upon its release last May, leading Rodrigo to smash multiple chart records; she gave the US’ Billboard 200 chart the biggest first-week figures it’d seen for 2021, made UK chart history as the first female artist with three of the top five singles in the same week, and became the youngest artist to land a UK Number One on two concurrent charts – a milestone that she hit two weeks in a row.In the months since its release, the album has racked up 15 Platinum certificates across seven countries, including three each in the US, Canada and Norway.Honouring the record’s first birthday, Rodrigo said it was “impossible for [her] to sum up in words how much this album means to [her] and how grateful [she is] to have gotten the privilege to make it and watch it exist in the world”. She also gave a shoutout to producer Dan Nigro, and thanked “everyone who has embraced [her] 17 year old lamentations and forever changed [her] life in the process”.A post shared by Olivia Rodrigo (@oliviarodrigo)‘Sour’ was released on May 21, 2021 via Geffen, flanked her breakout hit ‘Driver’s License’, as well as singles ‘Deja Vu’, ‘Good 4 U’, ‘Brutal’ and ‘Traitor’.

While chatting on SiriusXM’s “The Jess Cagle Show”, Myers hinted at doing an “Austin Powers 4” before Cunningham suggested he read the potential script to his daughter because she’s such a tough critic.
The Canadian star said, “I said to my daughter once I said, um, and she was four and I wrote a book about Canada, which I’m very, very proud about. It’s called Mike Myers Canada. Surprise, surprise. I said to her, ‘You have to go to bed now.’ She goes, ‘You bowing’ boring. Right? I went, ‘You bowing.’
“And then she reached back to the bookshelf, got my book without looking and threw it on the ground and said, ‘Your book is boring.’ That’s who she is. And I said, ‘Well, there’s parts of it that might be a bit of a polemic, but, uh, hardly boring, I think.’ And then I was, ‘Oh, she’s four. What am I talking about?’ But she’s that person.”
