"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 the song with its producer, Dan Nigro. It became available as the album's ninth track on September 8, 2023, when it was released by Geffen Records. A new wave, pop rock, and synth-pop song, "Love Is Embarrassing" has self-deprecating lyrics in which Rodrigo derides a love interest and expresses embarrassment about how much she was attracted to him.
Music critics found the lyricism of "Love Is Embarrassing" relatable and compared Rodrigo's vocals and the production to the work of other artists. The song reached the top 30 in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United States and entered the charts in some other countries. It received platinum certifications in Australia, Brazil, and Canada. Rodrigo included the song on the set list of her 2024–2025 concert tour, the Guts World Tour.
