As part of W’s ongoing Lyrical Improv series, Kristen Stewart, Jared Leto and more take turns reading the SOUR song’s lyrics, with (as always) mixed results. While some, like unsurprisingly Leto, opt to fully commit to the dramatic reading route, others, like Jodie Comer and Leslie Odom, Jr., actually sing it.

Other participants include, Kirsten Dunst, Tessa Thompson, Simon RexJennifer Hudson, Emilia Jones, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Ruth Negga.

Rodrigo released "drivers license," her debut single from her first studio album SOUR, in January 2021. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, earned the star Best New Artist and Song of the Year award at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards. And most recently (the entire album) secured the star seven nominations at the upcoming 2022 GRAMMYs .
