Olivia Rodrigo Skips VMAs for Rest
28 Sep
Summary
- Rodrigo nominated for multiple VMAs, including Best Album.
- She is missing the VMA ceremony due to tour commitments.
- Her upcoming concerts are on September 29 and 30 in Pittsburg.

Olivia Rodrigo has earned multiple nominations for the 2026 VMAs, spanning categories like Best Album, Song of the Summer, Best Pop, and Best Alternative. Despite these nods, including a nomination for 'you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love,' it appears she will not be attending the awards show.
Her absence is attributed to her demanding tour schedule. Rodrigo is scheduled for consecutive performances on September 29 and September 30 in Pittsburg. It is probable that she is utilizing this time for rest and recuperation leading up to these significant dates.
This follows a history of VMA success for Rodrigo, who won Best Editing in 2023 for 'Vampire.' Earlier wins in 2021 included Song of the Year, Best New Artist, and Push Performance of the Year for 'Drivers License.'
