Olivia Rodrigo’s first-date filter question: ‘I ask them if they… want to go to space’

Heterosexual Millennial and Gen Z women are trying to date and they’re finding a pretty tragic dating pool. I’ve seen so many tweets and TikToks where women are trying to give advice about first-date red flags and what kinds of questions to ask to get to women’s dealbreaker issues. In recent weeks, I’ve been seeing a lot about women asking their dates or boyfriends really specific hypotheticals about “what would you do if a doctor told you I would die if I didn’t have an abortion.” It seems like an obvious enough prompt for the guy to explain how he would do anything to save a woman’s life, but apparently guys are showing their MAGA asses over it. All of which to say, I don’t blame women for trying to find some simple questions to filter out the losers. I’m not sure about Olivia Rodrigo’s dealbreaker question though?

Olivia Rodrigo has an out-of-this-world first-date question. The “Vampire” singer, 21, revealed one of her dating “red flags” during an interview with Netflix posted on Instagram on Nov. 1.

Discussing the meaning behind the many signature tees she wore on stage during her Guts World Tour, including one that read “Dump Him” — which Rodrigo said is a “classic homage to Miss Britney Spears” — the star went on to reveal the question she asks guys on first dates to gauge their compatibility.

“The biggest red flag, okay, this is a very oddly specific question that I ask guys on first dates,” she began. “I always ask them if they would want to go to space. And if they say yes, I don’t date them,” Rodrigo continued with a grin. “I just think if you want to go to space, you’re a little too full of yourself.”

Elsewhere during her chat with Netflix, the songwriter also detailed that Sex and the City is one of her favorite shows and said that she is firmly Team Aidan, referring to John Corbett’s character on the series.

“Mr. Big sucks,” she said, a nod to Chris Noth’s character, who served as the other love interest for Sarah Jessica Parker’s Carrie Bradshaw. “But we’ve all dated guys like that. You can’t let them go. But yeah, Aidan for the win.”

The space question… it’s a generational thing, because older people probably want to go to space because they had childhood dreams of being astronauts and working at NASA (Space Camp was a seminal movie for my generation). These days, “going to space” means space tourism, being wealthy enough to hitch a ride on Blue Origin or Space X or whatever. It’s an okay filter question for Gen Z but I hope she’s got other dealbreakers. I don’t envy Olivia trying to weed out the douchebags though.

As for what she says about Sex and the City… it’s so funny to see younger girls watch that show and experience it in completely different ways. I’ve been doing a rewatch of some of the later seasons, and what’s driving me crazy is everything about Carrie’s arrested development and how she’s a complete f–king phony with men. She’s only “real” with her girlfriends, never with men. Whenever anything gets close to real with men, she sabotages it. Anyway, I’ve always agreed that Aidan was better than Big, but that’s just in general – Carrie and Big belonged together because they both sucked.
