Meghan King, former star of “The Real Housewives of Orange County,” recently made headlines after attending an Olivia Rodrigo concert with her 7-year-old daughter Aspen, where free condoms and Plan B were being handed out to concertgoers. While some parents might have been taken aback by this, Meghan is actually applauding the young pop star for her support of women’s reproductive rights.
Meghan revealed that the contraception table at the concert was not very noticeable, and she only noticed it because “vote” stickers were also being handed out there. She and her daughter decided to walk away without taking a closer look, but Meghan later learned that Plan B was being offered under the codename “Julie.”
While Meghan admits that the situation was a little jarring for her, especially considering her daughter’s young age, she doesn’t believe that parents should be angry about the free contraception. In fact, she criticizes Olivia’s critics as ignorant and hypocritical, suggesting that if a male artist like Justin Bieber were doing something similar with condoms, he wouldn’t face the same backlash.
Meghan understands Olivia Rodrigo’s mission in calling attention to the need for sex education, particularly as kids are growing up faster than ever. She does offer a suggestion for Olivia to consider handing out items promoting reproductive health that might be more suitable for her younger fans.
Overall, Meghan commends Olivia for supporting women’s reproductive rights and believes that if anyone has a problem with it, they can simply choose not to attend the “GUTS” tour. She firmly stands by Olivia and rejects any criticism fueled by misogyny, emphasizing the importance of promoting reproductive health and education for all.
