Olivia Rodrigo and Chappell Roan have joined forces on a remix of Expectations.
On Monday (12.10.26), Olivia posted a clip of a studio session with the mix on the screen for the new cut of the track from her latest album You Seem Pretty Sad For A Girl So In Love.
A voice that sounds like her good pal Chappell can be heard saying in the Instagram Stories clip: “Ooh, Olivia does remixes now.”
The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column claims the remix will arrive on Friday (16.10.26).
The Good 4 U hitmaker and the Pink Pony Club singer are believed to have decided to collaborate together after hanging out at Olivia’s Daisy Chain Fields festival this summer.
An insider told the publication: “Olivia and Chappell have been friends for a long time through producer and songwriter Dan Nigro, who has been a close collaborator of them both.
“It’s been over a year since Chappell last released music because she’s been taking time away from the spotlight and has quietly been working on new tracks.
“But they reconnected in August at Olivia’s Daisy Chain Fields festival, which they both performed at, and they decided to work together. Chappell loves the message of the song and the version they’ve made together is magic.”
It was at Daisy Chain Fields that Chappel realised “how much” she “missed” performing.
The singer hadn’t performed live since May, and her comeback at the all‑women festival clearly reignited something. Posting on Instagram after the show, she thanked Olivia for inviting her and praised her for using her platform “for good”.
She posted to Instagram after the event: “Thank you for having me @daisychainfields ! @oliviarodrigo u r so inspiring in so many ways.
“We need artists like u who use their platform for good and are such a light in the world.
“Thank you for being you and supporting artists like me, u have changed my life in so many ways 3 It felt so good to perform again, I didn’t realize how much I missed it. Really lived out my fifth element fantasy.”
