Chappell Roan explains her expletive clapback on VMAs carpet: ‘Quite overwhelming’
I find myself deeply moved by Chappell Roan‘s courage and unapologetic stance for her personal boundaries. As someone who has risen to fame at a young age, she embodies a strength and resilience that is both inspiring and relatable. Her experiences with anxiety and the overwhelming nature of public scrutiny are not unfamiliar to many in the spotlight.
Chappell Roan firmly enforces the limits she establishes for both her fans and the media, particularly press photographers.
The popular singer known for hits like “Hot to Go!” and “Good Luck, Babe!”, one of today’s prominent figures in pop music, made her debut at the MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday. On the red carpet outside the UBS Arena in Long Island, New York, Roan attracted attention not just for her revealing, medieval-esque outfit.
As a passionate moviegoer, I find myself in the spotlight after a video went viral, showing me speaking firmly to a photographer stationed at the red carpet event. In the heat of the moment, I asked them to “quiet down” using rather strong language. Prior to this incident, an off-screen voice echoed the same profanity, but the reason behind it remains unclear.
“No, not me, b—,” she added.
Moments following the interaction, the artist behind “Rise and Fall of a Midwestern Princess” clarified her intentions, stating she merely intended to hold her ground. Expressing feelings of being overpowered and frightened, she shared this sentiment with Entertainment Tonight during their red-carpet interview.
For someone who easily becomes anxious when people shout, finding that carpet terrifying isn’t surprising, and it’s unacceptable for you to shout at me like that,” she asserted.
26-year-old singer, riding high on success this summer, has openly discussed the impact her rapid ascent to fame has had on her personal life and privacy. In two thoughtful TikTok posts shared recently, Roan criticized certain fans for their harassment, bullying, and intrusion into her family’s privacy. She expressed it as odd when fans approach her for a photo or hug.
Roan, after facing backlash, later clarified her message.
She expressed in her August social media post that she doesn’t believe it’s necessary to reciprocate energy, time, or attention to people she doesn’t know, doesn’t trust, or finds uncomfortable, simply because they show admiration. Women should not feel obligated to explain why they don’t want physical contact or conversation.
On Wednesday, Roan didn’t limit her fiery presence just to the VMAs red carpet. Instead, she ignited the VMAs stage during her “Good Luck, Babe!” performance by using a flaming crossbow. While clad in armor, she sang and danced alongside sword-bearing backup dancers, with flames encompassing a castle as the backdrop. The entire spectacle was set ablaze!
Ahead of the upcoming ceremony on Wednesday, Roan was nominated across four categories, such as Song of the Summer and Trending Video. In the end, she won the award for Best New Artist and used her victory speech to honor those who have influenced her.
She expressed gratitude by saying, “This is for every drag artist who ignites my creativity, as well as the queer and trans individuals shaping pop culture today. And let’s not forget the gays whose emotions are immortalized in my songs – whether they are feelings of love or disdain.” Reading from her journal.
She stated, ‘I want to assure all the young individuals identifying as queer across the Midwest: I acknowledge and empathize with you. I too am one of you, and I urge you never to allow anyone to discourage your unique self-expression.’
