BTS’ V was ‘extremely nervous’ about his performance with Olivia Rodrigo at the Grammys
BTS’ V recalls his initial performance with popular singer Olivia Rodrigo at the Grammys.

In an interview with Weverse Magazine, BTS’ V recalls the preparations and his feelings during the performance at the Grammys and his conversation with Olivia Rodrigo. He revealed that the Grammys staff put them together, it wasn’t decided previously so he had no idea who he would be seated next to. He was inspired by ‘Now You See Me 2’ for the card scene and he felt it was important to recreate the ‘con scene’ and he did so with Olivia Rodrigo.
The casual conversation and the magic with the card, all of it was borrowed inspiration, which looked amazing on screen. V also said that he was so nervous about the performance that he couldn’t concentrate on the conversation with her and he couldn’t hear her properly either as he had both his in-ears on. Seeing how nervous he was, it definitely didn’t show on-stage as he did an amazing job at bringing his swagger to the performance!
