A recent critique of Olivia Rodrigo‘s behavior in an iPhone ad by Republican Pennsylvania state senator John DiSanto sparked a fiery response from the singer's loyal fanbase. DiSanto took to social media, expressing disapproval of the ad's portrayal of Rodrigo, suggesting that her actions and attire were inappropriate for a young woman, according to the DailyBeast.

The ad, featuring the 20-year-old star performing her song “get him back!” on an iPhone 15 Pro, depicts Rodrigo engaging in activities such as keying a parked vehicle and creating chaos in a room, elements that triggered DiSanto's criticism.

In response to DiSanto's remarks, Rodrigo's passionate fans swiftly came to her defense, lashing out at the senator for his comments. Some fans dismissed DiSanto's influence compared to Rodrigo's, while others deemed his criticism as unwarranted and even labeled him a “pathetic creep” for his remarks about Rodrigo's attire.
