Miley Cyrus DEFENDS Chappell Roan for setting boundaries with fans after singer's rant about posing for photos

As a seasoned observer of the ever-evolving landscape of pop culture and entertainment, I find myself deeply moved by the journey of Chappell Roan, a young artist whose meteoric rise to fame has been accompanied by an extraordinary amount of self-awareness and maturity beyond her years. It is truly remarkable to witness someone so young navigate the complexities of the industry with such grace and determination, while also maintaining a strong sense of personal boundaries and integrity.


Miley Cyrus stands up for Chappell Roan, who established limits with fans, as the singer herself spoke out against strange admirers demanding selfies from her.

Roan, the 26-year-old artist who made “In August Good Luck Babe!”, recently spoke out against fans who have been behaving in a harassing and stalker-like manner. She expressed that she doesn’t care if this label makes her seem “selfish,” as her privacy is important to her.

In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Cyrus, aged 32, shared that she contacted Roan (Kayleigh Rose Amstutz) following her controversial video post.

She said: ‘I wish people would not give her a hard time. It’s probably really hard coming into this business with phones and Instagram. That wasn’t always a part of my life, and I’m not a part of it now.’

Cyrus added that she ‘doesn’t even have my Instagram password.’

Back in July, I couldn’t help but tune into an episode of The Comment Section podcast, where the captivating Roan shared insights about managing stardom. She mentioned then that she had to slow down the rollercoaster ride of fame, referring to it as pumping the brakes.

Individuals are acting strangely towards me, for instance, tracking me and knowing the location of my parents’ home as well as my sister’s workplace,” she informed Drew Afualo. “It’s becoming quite unsettling.

Chappell, often referred to as the Gen Z equivalent of Madonna, shared that she has sworn to herself to halt her music career if fans exhibit unsettling behaviors towards her or put her family in any perceived danger.

Moreover, she shared insights on the advantages of her celebrity status, including meeting idols from her past whom she now considers equals. “It’s awesome when people I’ve admired for so long treat me as a peer,” she said.

Additionally, she remembered saying something along the lines of, “Miley Cyrus invited me to a party, and I told her, ‘I didn’t realize you were the first concert I ever attended when the Jonas Brothers were supporting you.’

In August, the songstress shared a rant on TikTok as she slammed ‘weird’ fans.

She asked me to respond to her questions – could you please answer them for a moment. Hypothetically speaking, if I happened to see a stranger on the street, would I shout at her from my car window?

Could you behave disrespectfully towards her in public? Suppose you approached an unfamiliar woman and asked, “May I take a picture with you?”, and she responded with something along the lines of, “No, what’s wrong with you?” or even stronger language. In response, you became upset at this stranger.

The artist from Good Luck, Babe! responded by asking, ‘Might you feel upset if she declines your time, as she has her own commitments?’, followed by a series of questions: ‘Would you harass her family? Would you trail her personally? Would you delve into her life and torment her online?’

‘Is it safe to judge this unknown woman as being either good or bad? Would you blindly believe whatever you find about her on the internet?’

The performer stated in the video, “We’re both just ordinary individuals. Let that thought sink in for a moment, alright?

Later on, Chappell clarified that she wouldn’t tolerate ‘stalking’ and ‘harassment’ being seen as typical fan conduct.

Shortly following the upload of her TikTok video criticizing some unusual followers, Roan maintained her position on Instagram.

In a lengthy statement, she wrote, ‘I’m not afraid of the consequences for demanding respect.’

Chappell stated, “This isn’t a fresh predicament. It’s perplexing why a girl voicing her apprehensions and limits stirs such anger.

Over the last decade, I’ve been relentlessly pouring my energy into realizing my dream project. Now, it’s time for me to establish some clear limits and guidelines to ensure its growth remains balanced and sustainable.

The performer commented, “I’ve found myself in situations that were not consensual, both physically and socially. And I feel compelled to make this clear: Women do not owe anyone anything.

In all situations where I’m on stage, performing, donning drag, attending work events, or dealing with the media, I consider myself to be at work. However, in any other scenario, I’m not in ‘work mode’. Instead, I’ve effectively ‘clocked out’.

I’m not convinced by the idea that I should reciprocate energy, time, or attention towards strangers, individuals I don’t trust, or those who make me uncomfortable – merely because they show appreciation.

Roan clarified that she was referring to a particular type of conduct often disguised as excessive fandom, which has been accepted due to how female celebrities have historically been treated.

Later on, she expressed her disappointment that it took so long for people to recognize her as a serious artist, a sentiment she shared during an interview with Rolling Stone.

I find it rather frustrating when my expertise seems to finally be recognized,” I admit. “It feels as if I’ve been laying the groundwork for quite some time, and only now are people starting to take notice.

A part of me wishes I don’t achieve another hit, as it would free me from any future expectations,” the star expressed.

Chappell shared that she considers music as her deep-seated enthusiasm. “It’s a dream come true for me. Sometimes, I worry if this will continue, and that feeling can be quite unsettling.

Nevertheless, certain enthusiasts once more expressed dissatisfaction, quickly rushing to X to voice their opinions. One of them wrote, ‘She just seems to be always complaining.’

One person wrote, ‘I’m fed up with constantly listening to her complaints about this woman,’ while another commented, ‘Hey girl, could you take a break from the negative talk? Your constant complaints are becoming tiresome.’

User 1: “Are you enjoying your popularity or not?

As an ardent admirer, I find myself penning down my thoughts, “Day after day, it feels like all I hear is constant complaining, oh my goodness!” Another fellow enthusiast echoes my sentiments, “I wish she’d take a break from setting herself up for disappointment.

One variation could be: ‘Others stated, “She often voices dissatisfaction with her job,” and also, “Perhaps it would be more fitting for her to express gratitude towards her fans for granting her recognition and fame.’

Nevertheless, certain supporters defended Chappell on platform X, expressing that Chappell Roan’s frustration was completely relatable. It can be challenging when one’s efforts go unacknowledged until a later time.

Roan’s career is gaining momentum following her performances at Lollapalooza and Coachella, as well as seven songs that made it onto Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.
