Pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo made a surprise appearance at Old Trafford for Manchester United's Premier League soccer game against Chelsea on Sunday. The singer was spotted emerging from the players' tunnel and taking her place on the side of the field before kickoff.

United took to social media to welcome Rodrigo, posting, 'Good 4 u @OliviaRodrigo - we hope you enjoy Old Trafford.' Rodrigo, known for hits like Deja Vu and Good 4 U, sported dark sunglasses and a yellow coat as she sat behind former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson.

This wasn't Rodrigo's first foray into Premier League matches, as she had previously attended a Chelsea game last season at Stamford Bridge. After watching Chelsea play against Liverpool, Rodrigo posed for pictures with England international Ben Chilwell, leading Chelsea to declare her as a fan with a social media post stating, 'Olivia Rodrigo is a Blue!'

While Rodrigo's presence at Old Trafford was unexpected, the club's minority owner Jim Ratcliffe also made an appearance at a United match for the first time since manager Erik ten Hag was fired earlier in the week.

It seems that Rodrigo's love for soccer and her support for various teams in the Premier League continue to make headlines, adding a touch of glamour to the football world.
