The American singer delivered a speech at the White House to encourage young people to get vaccinated against the coronavirus.
The 18-year-old singer and actress was a scorcher with a Chanel suit and white platform shoes in the press briefing room.
In a light-hearted vein, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki introduced Rodrigo to the media by referring to her humdinger Drivers License, saying she "traversed red lights and stop signs to see us."
The White House roped in the services of Rodrigo, who has millions of followers on social media, to give a fillip to declining vaccination rates among youth.
Both the President and the singer posed for pictures wearing Aviator sunglasses at the Oval Office.
