The High School Musical: The Musical: The Series actress, 18, took a moment amid the heights of her break-out hit drivers license to show she had been brought back down to Earth by a Los Angeles parking violation ticket.
“This isn’t all fun and games,” Rodrigo wrote in the photo of the parking ticket envelope posted on her Instagram stories. No word on the infraction, but Rodrigo can handle the fine.
In the emotional pop ballad, Rodrigo sings about driving around with her new drivers license, longing for the past love who’d encouraged her to achieve the life-changing ID.
Released Jan. 8, “drivers license” launched to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Rodrigo the youngest artist to debut at the top of the chart, and broke Spotify’s record for most streams of a song in a single week.
The song even got a stamp of approval from Taylor Swift, who responded to the then 17-year-old singer’s success by posting “that’s my baby and i’m so proud.”
