The Grammy Award-winning artist recently spoke to Teen Vogue following the end of her extensive 95-date ‘GUTS’ world tour – which was in support of her second album of the same name – and ahead of the release of her Netflix GUTS World Tour Concert Film.
Speaking about a moment at the end of the film in which she takes a lap around the floor collecting gifts from fans and attendees, the ‘Vampire’ singer shared that she keeps the gifts and “put them in my bus or in my dressing room”.
“I have an entire luggage that’s sitting over there in my living room, unpacked, full of just gifts and things that people have given me,” she explained.

When asked about what has been her favourite gift a fan has given her so far, the ‘Love Is Embarrassing’ singer said: “I think my favourite one is (from) the Philippines, this sweet girl that I met crocheted me this beautiful bag and this bonnet that I find really chic, and so I’ve been wearing it.”
She continued: “And if anyone asks me, I’m going to say, ‘Yeah, a beautiful girl in the Philippines gave it to me. You can’t buy it, it’s one of a kind.’”
In other news, Rodrigo recently announced that she will be donating roughly $2million taken from ticket sales for her ‘Guts’ world tour to key organisations focusing on women’s issues.
The singer has been a vocal reproductive rights activist, having announced the launch of The Fund 4 Good initiative earlier this year. The hefty sum of money will be spread across 10 organisations that champion girls’ education, women’s reproductive rights and the prevention of gender-based violence.
Elsewhere, Rodrigo is set to perform at various festivals next summer including the likes of Rock Werchter 2025, Roskilde Festival 2025, Mad Cool Festival 2025, NOS Alive 2025, BST Hyde Park and more.
