First dates are nice but also strange, as in a very short period of time you try to get to know the other person as best as you can – with a series of questions, as if you are under interrogation. A knowledge that will lead you to decide whether to see him/her again. And Olivia Rodrigo is no different from all the other women.
The 21-year-old may be one of the biggest stars in the pop music industry, but when it comes to first dates, she’s still… 21-year-old. Something she also showed during a recent interview on Netflix, as when she was asked about her red flags on a first date, she did not hesitate to reveal the question she always asks a man and depending on the answer she gets, she decides whether to see again or not.
“I always ask them if they have a dream to go into space,” said Olivia Rodrigo, adding, “And if they say yes, then I never see them again.” In fact, as he explained, “if you want to go to space, you’ve probably ‘seen’ it yourself.”
Her response, as expected, went viral but also divided social media. There were several who considered Rodrigo’s move to be reasonable, while others could not understand why the space dream bothers her so much.

“Olivia says it’s a red flag to her if a man wants to go into space, and she’s right. Because if a woman says it then she’s independent, but if a man says it, the phase is… ok, haven’t you done a lot already?” quipped one user on X. While another wrote: “I agree. Have you seen which men dream of going into space?’
“Isn’t it a bit weird to judge people for having dreams?”, “how irrelevant is that?”, “I’d still like to date someone who wants to go to space” were some of the comments.
