"Love Is Embarrassing" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo from her second studio album, Guts (2023). Rodrigo wrote it with its producer, Dan Nigro. The song became available as the album's ninth track on September 8, 2023, when it was released by Geffen Records. A new wave song, "Love Is Embarrassing" details Rodrigo's embarrassment over falling in love.

The song reached the top 30 in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United States and entered the charts in some other countries. Rodrigo included it on the set list of her 2024 concert tour, the Guts World Tour.

Background and release

After Olivia Rodrigo experienced unprecedented commercial success with her debut single, "Drivers License" (2021),[1][2] its co-writer, Dan Nigro, produced all of the tracks on her debut studio album, Sour (2021).[3][4] She drew inspiration from several genres, including pop, folk, and alternative rock.[5] The album was released in May 2021, receiving critical acclaim and commercial success,[6][7] following which Rodrigo decided to take a break from songwriting for six months.[8] She conceived the follow-up album, Guts (2023), at the age of 19, while experiencing "lots of confusion, mistakes, awkwardness & good old fashioned teen angst".[9] Nigro returned to produce every single track on it.[10] They wrote over 100 songs, of which Rodrigo included the more rock-oriented tracks on the album because they drew a bigger reaction from her audiences during live shows.[11]

Rodrigo announced the album title on June 26, 2023, and its lead single, "Vampire", was released four days later.[12][13] On August 1, 2023, she revealed Guts's tracklist, which features "Love Is Embarrassing" as the ninth track.[14] The song became available for digital download on the album, which was released on September 8, 2023.[15] Rodrigo performed it during a Tiny Desk concert in December 2023.[16][17] The song was included on the set list of her 2024 concert tour, the Guts World Tour.[18]
