After 95 shows and eight months on the road, Olivia Rodrigo officially wrapped up her GUTS World Tour for 2024 in Sydney, Australia, and decided to get some matching tattoos with friends for the occasion.
On October 24, Rodrigo took to her Instagram account to share a handwritten, heartfelt letter dedicated to her second tour. “That's a wrap on the GUTS World Tour! 95 shows, 22 countries, and a few matching tattoos! Words cannot describe how lucky I feel to have been able to travel all around the world playing these songs with the most extraordinary group of people,” she wrote.
“I'll never forget this experience and all the sweet memories we made on the road," she continued. "Thank you so much to everyone who bought a ticket and sang and screamed and jumped with me. Sharing these nights with y'all has been a real honor. Andddd if you missed the show or ya just wanna relive it again with me, the concert film comes out Oct. 29 on Netflix.”

In the next few slides, Rodrigo included various snaps from life on the road, including a picture of herself and one of her dancers, Alex White, showing off their matching tattoos. While we don't know if more of the team members also joined in on the ink fun (and judging by Rodrigo's letter, it looks like it), the pair showed off their delicate designs: a thin, black outline of a five-pointed star, one of the most prevalent motifs used throughout GUTS and its promotion. (You can see he photo here as well.)
White appears to have gotten her star on the inside of her upper arm, just above the crook of her arm. Rodrigo, on the other hand, seems to have chosen the side of her middle finger for the piece, which is surprising given her previous experiences with finger tats.
ICYMI: Rodrigo got another set of matching tattoos with a group of friends in 2022, opting for a heart outline on the tip of her pinky finger. However, barely a year later, the singer joked that the heart didn't look like a heart at all and that it was more like she “smudged Sharpie on [her] hand," and because of that, she didn't "really classify it as a tattoo." (She even held up her finger to prove it, and… she was right!)
Now, while finger tattoos, wherever they might be placed, do tend to fade more quickly than ink on other parts of the body because of friction, the new placement seems to be a step up for Rodrigo, and we are hoping this one lasts a lot more than a year!
