Sheryl Crow Says Olivia Rodrigo Is 'The Real Deal': 'She's a Great Songwriter'

The duo will perform together during Crow's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Sheryl Crow is celebrating Olivia Rodrigo.

During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Thursday, the music icon had some kind words to say about Rodrigo, calling her "the real deal."

"She's precious," Crow, 61, added of the 20-year-old singer. "She's a great songwriter."

The nine-time Grammy winner also added that Rodrigo "seems kind of unaffected by [fame]."

"She's super cool," the "I'll Be Here" singer also told Fallon as she explained how their collaboration came about. "[Rodrigo] asked me to do this thing when she came to Nashville. So I texted her and said, 'Hey, would you do the Rock Hall with me?' And she's like, 'I would love to, I would be so honored'. "

Crow and Rodrigo last appeared on stage together in September at The Bluebird Café, an iconic Nashville venue. They performed an intimate, stripped-down arrangement of “If It Makes You Happy," one of Crow’s biggest hits.
