Olivia Rodrigo was just a girl in the crowd at No Doubt‘s final residency gig at Las Vegas’ Sphere on Saturday night (June 13) who was looking for some love from singer Gwen Stefani. In keeping with the vocalist’s tradition during the 18-show run of pulling a megafan out of the crowd and bringing them up for a hug, Stefani spotted a sign in the audience begging for some attention and acted accordingly.

Only this time it was being held by fellow pop singer Rodrigo — who released her acclaimed third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love just one day before — whose pink sign read: “I’m just a girl who wants the last hug at the last show.”

Stefani loved it, shouting, “Is that Olivia Rodrigo? Oh my gosh. Give it up for Olivia Rodrigo! She has a new record that just came out.” For her part, Rodrigo, wearing black boots, a black and white striped miniskirt, yellow T-shirt and white baseball hat, was elated by the hug and the shout out to her new LP, waving to the crowd and leaning in for her promised hug before grabbing Stefani’s mic and saying, “No Doubt, best band in the world! I love you so much.”

The women hugged two more times before Rodrigo sprinted off stage and Stefani promised the cheering crowd, “that was really her. That was not a mask.” Stefani then later thanked Rodrigo again in an X post featuring fan video of the interaction, writing, “thank u so much for coming @oliviarodrigo.”

The superstar summit came two years after No Doubt first reunited at Coachella in 2024, where Rodrigo popped out as a surprise guest on a run through “Bathwater.” In a testament to her fandom, for that show Rodrigo donned a Stefani-coded pair of black dress pants, and a white tank top with red bra visible underneath that read “I ❤️ ND.”

In addition, during her 2025 Lollapalooza Chile headlining set, Rodrigo covered No Doubt’s 1996 Billboard Pop Airplay chart No. 1 hit “Don’t Speak,” telling the crowd, “this next one is one of my favorite songs that I didn’t write. I’m very jealous of the people who wrote it, because I think it’s amazing.” She also had the band’s “Just a Girl” on her setlist during her 2022 North American Sour tour.

When No Doubt kicked off their 18-show run on May 6, Stefani became the first woman to headline the iconic venue that has so far welcomed acts including U2, Phish, Dead & Company, the Eagles, Anyma, Kenny Chesney, the Backstreet Boys, Chase & Status, Zac Brown Band and Illenium.
