Speaking exclusively to 7NEWS, the 22-year-old recalled the moment she met the “beautiful human”.
“She comes out, she kind of saw us noticing her, and she said to her bodyguard, ‘I’m going to go up to these guys’,” Camiolo said.
“She came up and took a photo.
“She was like ‘Cute jacket’ and I was like, ‘Oh, thanks’, but I just had to ask her for advice.
“I was like, ‘Girl, what do I do?’”
Camiolo shared the encounter on TikTok, with the video reaching more than 362,300 people.
“Oh my gosh! Just make stuff every day, keep going until you have good quality,” the US star told Camiolo.
The singer kept it casual in a New York Yankees baseball cap, grey coat, white sweater and black jeans, paired with black Converses.
Fans gushed over the video.
“The most genuine person I ever know, so humble and down to earth,” one fan said.
Another wrote: “You’re so lucky!”
“Oh my GOD, she’s out here somewhere,” another fan added.
Dedicated fans are already camped out at Rod Laver Arena ahead of the 21-year-old’s sold-out shows.
Rodrigo will perform at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday and Monday before taking to the stage at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney on October 17, 18, 21 and 22.
The tour is set to be Rodrigo’s first-ever run of shows down under, with New Zealand singer Benee, best known for her hit Supalonely, set to join the star as the opening act in Australia.
Rodrigo first became known for starring in Disney’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, but shot to fame following the 2021 release of her debut single, Driver’s Licence, which peaked atop the US Billboard Hot 100.
She released her first album, SOUR, later that year and was named entertainer of the year by TIME Magazine. Her second album, GUTS, followed in 2023, again topping the charts in the US, Australia and around the globe.
The three-time Grammy Award winner landed in Australia off the back of her biggest concert yet, having performed to more than 50,000 fans at a sold-out audience at the Philippine Arena in Manila.
All ticket proceeds from Saturday’s show were donated to Jhpiego, a charity helping to provide healthcare to women and girls internationally, through Rodrigo’s Fund 4 Good initiative.
