Olivia Rodrigo presented a bizarre response to fashion critics on The New York Times’ “Popcast” podcast. 

“One of the other things you’ve been a lightning rod over, is like, the babydoll dress,” host Joe Coscarelli noted in a clip released Wednesday. 

“That’s been making me so upset. Not even for me, like, I don’t care, people could say whatever they want,” Rodrigo began, before launching into a spiel about how much she doesn’t care. (RELATED: Olivia Rodrigo Gives Subtly Bloodthirsty Answer To Question On Palace Of Versailles)

Rodrigo has started wearing babydoll dresses — short dresses with high waistlines — and ruffled bloomers amid her new album rollout. The look has attracted objections.

“[W]e need to have an actual serious conversation about Olivia Rodrigo mainstreaming Lolita and babydoll aesthetics that appeal to pedophiles,” reads a tweet with over 350,000 views.

Some criticized a video of Rodrigo kneeling onstage, lifting up her dress to display her underwear-like shorts.
