Olivia Rodrigo's emergence as a pop superstar happened at a speed that not many in her position can relate to, but the 20-year-old singer, songwriter and actress says she's not letting herself feel rushed along the way.

Speaking to Elvis Duran at the Mercedes-Benz Interview Lounge, Olivia said she's making a point to appreciate everything that's come her way.

"I'm soaking it all in; I'm so lucky," she says. "I've been so blessed with so many things. It's all very exciting, but I try to stay grounded at the same time. My real life is my family, my friends and that always comes first."

Olivia recently moved to New York, which will make her commute to Saturday Night Live tomorrow that much simpler.

"I'm such a fan of the show, I just think it's incredible how they're able to pull that off every week," she adds. "It's quite remarkable. I'm very excited and hopefully it goes well."
