Chappell Roan’s biggest moans! Everything the pop star has complained about since becoming famous just last year
As a journalist delving into the complex and tumultuous world of celebrity, I find myself both fascinated and disheartened by the tales that unfold before me. Roan Chappell, a rising star in the music industry, has captured my attention not just for her talent but also for her raw, unfiltered experiences within the limelight.
In the year 2024, Chappell Roan achieved a significant milestone in her music career – a fact worth noting given that she had already been a professional musician since she turned seventeen years old.
26-year-old singer from The Pink Pony Club, who’s now on her Midwest Princess Tour, has shared insights about her rapid ascent to stardom and handling unusual fans in the past.
Approximately a year ago, Roan (originally known as Kayleigh Rose Amstutz) released her first studio album, “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.” This album eventually reached the second position on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.
Lately, I find myself feeling overwhelmed by the spotlight, even contemplating stepping away from it all, for I’ve grown tired of the relentless intrusion – a sentiment I expressed following my declaration that folks should finally start treating me with the respect I deserve. As an ardent admirer, I can empathize with this frustration and wish for her to continue shining brightly in the world of stardom.
However, in response, some fans blasted the performer for ‘complaining’ and not ‘appreciating’ her fame, while one previously labeled the star as ‘Chappell Moan.’
Following the escalation of Chappell’s celebrity status, particularly after her captivating 2024 MTV VMAs act, DailyMail.com delves into the most significant gripes the singer has expressed since her rise to fame a year ago.
September 2023 – Album Release and Success
Approximately a year ago, on September 22, 2023, Chappell Roan unveiled her first studio album, titled “The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess,” under Island Records.
Initially, the reviews for the songs on the LP were favorable, although its success grew gradually over time.
Come early 2024, the album featuring hits like “Good Luck, Babe!” started to make waves, quickly capturing attention worldwide and claiming top chart positions globally. I couldn’t be more thrilled!
This LP claimed the top position on the U.K. Albums chart, the second place on the U.S. Billboard 200, and also topped the New Zealand Albums chart.
Her swift climb to fame was significantly boosted when Roan joined Olivia Rodrigo on her Guts World Tour as an opening act.
Since last year, Chappell has started gaining recognition, but her love for music dates back to her childhood years. At just 17, she shared an original composition titled “Die Young” on YouTube.
After a short while, she secured a deal with Atlantic Records and released tracks like “Good Hurt” along with her first extended play (EP), titled “School Nights.
Later in 2020, she released Pink Pony Club which was different from her previous music.
Instead, she was subsequently let go by Atlantic Records as her more recent songs failed to generate sufficient popularity or financial success at that point in time.
After moving back to Missouri and later returning to Los Angeles, Roan persisted in following her love for music. Not long after, her album “The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess” was released, propelling her into stardom.
September 2023 – Adjusting to Stardom
In the very same month, Chappell discussed with Vanity Fair her experience of sharing videos on YouTube as a youngster, and was inquired if she desired to be found or recognized.
Responding to this, Roan explained, “I merely shared it; I wasn’t aware it would lead to discovery months later. The whole situation turned out quite dramatic.
Afterward, she pondered over the busy schedule of performances and expressed, ‘It was quite draining, really, to socialize with that many people each evening.’
‘Not anything they did wrong, but my soul was just so overwhelmed,’ the singer further explained.
Acting in shows can be quite draining. Being on tour is like riding an intense emotional roller coaster, which makes it challenging to consistently embody a character.
Initially, she expressed dislike for touring, but later on, she enthusiastically shared that she cherishes the experience, stating, “It’s my preferred aspect of my profession, which is quite unusual as many people find it abhorrent.
“I find the performances incredibly enjoyable, both for me and our audience, and I’m deeply fond of my band. We have a fantastic team, and the merchandise is adorable. Overall, this project brings a lot of fun. However, it can be overpowering and tiring, sometimes even exhausting.
June 2024 – Difficulty Keeping Up
Back in June this past summer, Chappell experienced a heartfelt moment while performing at her concert held in Raleigh, North Carolina.
At a certain moment, with tears streaming down, she spoke to her audience, saying, “I suppose I simply want to be truthful with all of you.
Today, I find myself struggling a bit because the pace at which my career is advancing feels overwhelmingly rapid, making it tough for me to stay afloat. To put it simply, I’m being straightforward about the fact that I’m finding things challenging today.
She also added, “I truly apologize if it appears that I’m providing a less impressive performance. It’s merely because there’s a great deal going on… Thank you for your understanding.
To summarize, Chappell shared with the audience that although her rapid rise to stardom can be overwhelming at times, it’s always been her ultimate dream.
July 2024 – Candid on ‘Stalker’ Fans and Fame
A while back in July, during a podcast episode of The Comment Section, Roan mentioned her approach to handling celebrity status, stating then that she had temporarily slowed down her rise to fame.
She informed host Drew Afualo that certain individuals are acting suspiciously towards her, knowing details such as her family’s residence and her sister’s workplace. She described it as unusual and odd behavior, saying “It’s all quite unsettling.
Chappell, often referred to as Gen Z’s equivalent of Madonna, shared that she had pledged to cease creating music if fans exhibited behaviors giving off a “stalker” vibe or put her family in any perceived “danger.
She affirmed that they had arrived at their destination, adding “I’ve essentially slowed down or paused most things aimed at increasing my visibility.
The entertainer from The Pink Pony Club confessed, ‘Things are quite chaotic, like a forest fire at the moment. I’m not looking to get involved in a lot of unnecessary activities.’
Nevertheless, she shared her perspective on the advantages of being famous, including encounters with stars she admired for a long time. As she put it, “Those I’ve idolized my whole life are now more like equals, and that’s pretty cool.
She also recalled, ‘Miley [Cyrus] invited me to a party, and I was like, “You don’t know that you were my first concert when the Jonas Brothers were opening for you.”‘
Also during the podcast episode, she talked about what she missed most before her rise to fame.
[Engaging in] substance abuse openly. It’s something I yearn for. For instance, casually using substances, acting eccentrically in a bar, or even kissing someone publicly at a bar,” she stated.
Chappell explained that he yearns for the carefree days of frolicking, but now feels too self-conscious to do so. He also mentioned longing for the feeling of being in a place like Forever 21 where one can let go without fear of judgment.
‘I’m in disguise most of the time. But like, I miss just walking around being by myself. I guess being by myself is [what] I miss.’
June 2024 – Reflection and Getting Support
In June, Chappell openly confessed about the chaos in her life during a TikTok video she posted, yet she mentioned that fellow musicians in the industry have extended their support to her, as reported by People.
I’ve been pondering over my life, and the last few weeks have been quite chaotic. Yet, there’s something both comforting and strange about the music of those pop artists we’ve adored since childhood…
‘Perhaps some fans from the last couple of years – many of whom have shown incredible support and camaraderie, much like a sisterhood.’
Roan said, “It means a lot when those I admire extend friendship or assistance. It’s almost surreal, and it gives me faith in humanity.
August 2024 – Slamming ‘Weird’ Fans
Last month in August, the songstress shared a rant on TikTok as she slammed ‘weird’ fans.
She asked me to respond to her queries – could you please answer my questions briefly for a moment. In an imaginary scenario, if I happened to see a stranger woman walking on the street, would I shout at her from my car window?
‘Would you behave disrespectfully towards a stranger in public? Would you approach an unfamiliar woman, ask for a photo, and then respond aggressively if she declines or becomes upset? If so, wouldn’t that make you angry at the woman?’
The artist from Good Luck, Babe! remarked, “Is it possible that you’d feel upset if she declines your time because she has her own? Remember, don’t intrude on her personal space. Avoid stalking her family, following her around, or invading her privacy by trying to analyze her life and harassing her online.
‘This woman is a stranger to you, and vice versa. Can you judge whether she’s kind or cruel based solely on your acquaintance? Would you believe whatever you find about her on the internet without question?’
The performer stated, ‘We’re just two random individuals. Let that thought sink in for a moment, alright?’ in the video.
Later on, Chappell clarified that she wouldn’t tolerate ‘stalking’ and ‘harassment’ being considered as typical fan behavior.
“I’m indifferent about the fact that mistreatment, including abuse, harassment, stalking, or any form of bullying, is often considered acceptable behavior towards those who have some level of fame.
In my own words, I express, ‘Regardless of being commonplace in this profession, I disregard it. The eccentricities often associated with this career path mean little to me.’
Just because it’s not wrong, doesn’t mean it’s acceptable or typical. Merely acknowledging its existence doesn’t imply approval or preference.
August 2024 – Doesn’t Care About Success
During her recent conversation with Interview Magazine, Chappell Roan candidly shared that she holds little regard for achieving success in the music world.
At some stage, she expressed, “My career isn’t any more significant now that I have a charting album and song. In fact, I feel more like saying, ‘You all missed the point, and here I am thinking, ‘Foolish of you to not see what truly counts.’
As a die-hard enthusiast, I can’t help but feel that these charts are as ephemeral as a morning mist. It seems everyone comes and goes from them, yet here I am, beaming with pride, thinking to myself, “This is the kind of performance that would make a valedictorian blush!
Chappell commented, “However, everyone eventually graduates. Being the valedictorian isn’t all that significant at this moment, and that’s how I feel.
Well, that’s neat. There’s a chance I might be the valedictorian, but it feels strange that we’re graduating and everyone will be moving away, so…
August 2024 – Doubling Down on Invasive Fans
Shortly following the upload of her TikTok video criticizing certain fans as strange, Roan continued to uphold her viewpoint on Instagram.
In a lengthy statement, she wrote, ‘I’m not afraid of the consequences for demanding respect.’
Chappell stated, “This isn’t an unprecedented scenario. It’s puzzling why a girl stating her apprehensions and limits stirs such anger.
Over the last decade, I’ve been relentlessly working on my project without pause. Now, it’s become necessary for me to establish some limits and define clear boundaries.
The performer commented, “Over the years, I’ve been involved in far too many situations where consent was not given, be they physical or social. Let me make this clear: Women do not owe anyone anything.
In all situations where I’m on stage, performing, in drag, attending a professional event, or doing press interviews, I consider myself to be working. Any other situation finds me outside of work mode and effectively off the clock.
I don’t think it’s necessary to reciprocate energy, time, or attention towards people I’m not familiar with, don’t trust, or find uncomfortable, simply because they show appreciation for me.
Roan clarified that she was referring to a particular type of aggressive or exploitative conduct, often disguised as excessive fandom, which has unfortunately become accepted due to how women, especially famous ones, have historically been mistreated.
‘It’s important not to make assumptions about a person’s personal life, character, or limitations just because you have interacted with them or seen their work on the internet. Everyone has unique experiences and boundaries that may not be immediately apparent.’
When opting for a public lifestyle, the celebrity made it clear that she was not required to tolerate unwelcome advances such as unwanted attention, physical contact, or being stalked.
She further typed, ‘It is not the woman’s duty to suck it up and take it; it is the harasser’s duty to be a decent person, leave her alone, and respect that she can wear whatever she wants and still deserve peace in this world.’
I’m feeling fearful, exhausted, yet overwhelmed with love that I’ve never experienced before. At the same time, I’m experiencing a level of vulnerability and unease that I’ve never known before.
To sum up, Chappell shared that although she enjoys performing, there’s another side of her that is purely personal and she values keeping it private. She expresses gratitude for your attention and empathy in this matter.
September 2024 – Blasted By Fans and Sharing ‘Frustration’
Roan expressed her exasperation, sharing in the Rolling Stone interview that it is only lately that people have started treating her like a genuine artist.
She said with frustration, “It’s maddening that they’re only starting to take me seriously now.” In a more direct way, she might have said, “You know what? I’ve been doing this for ages, and it seems like you’re just now realizing it.
The star expressed, “A part of me secretly wishes I won’t score another hit, so no one will anticipate anything more from me anymore.
Chappell shared that music is not just a hobby for her, but a deep-seated passion. She considers her work in music as her dream job, and the uncertainty of whether this will continue is somewhat unsettling for her.
Nevertheless, certain fans continued to be dissatisfied and quickly took to X to voice their opinions. One of them penned, “She just complains all the time.
I find myself expressing, “I’m wearying of the constant chatter about this lady; it seems her gripes are endless.” Yet another way could be, “Everywhere I turn, there she is, whining away. It’s just not fun to hear all the time.
As a lifestyle advisor, I’d rephrase those comments like this: “Lady, are you savoring the spotlight or just basking in it? Remember, success often requires patience.” Or, “Girl, fame doesn’t happen overnight, so take things slow and stay calm.
Option A: The fan wrote, ‘She’s always complaining, oh my goodness!’, while the other said, ‘Could she please stop finding reasons to criticize herself.’
One observation made about her was that she frequently complains about her job, contrasted with the suggestion that she should express gratitude towards her fans for granting her popularity and recognition.
Nevertheless, certain supporters stood up for Chappell on X, one of them stating, ‘Chappell Roan’s feelings of frustration are entirely comprehensible. It can be difficult when one’s dedication isn’t acknowledged until much later.’
As a lifestyle expert, I must say, that’s exactly how the music world operates – people seem to hop on the trend once an artist is already experiencing massive success.
‘After working tirelessly for years, Chappell Roan is finally getting the recognition she deserves, but it seems as though people are trying to claim her success as their own discovery – a classic scenario.’
In her conversation with Rolling Stone, she shared thoughts about her fans, stating, “I don’t want to become a recluse, like many artists tend to be. All the artists I know feel that way.” (or) “During her interview, she discussed her fans and mentioned, ‘I strive to avoid being agoraphobic, which seems to be common among my peers in the music industry. Every artist I know feels this way.’
‘Everyone is uncomfortable with fans. Some people just have more patience. I f***ing don’t.’
September 2024 – MTV VMA’s Red Carpet
At the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards held in New York City on September 11th, Roan found himself involved in a minor altercation with a photographer as they both walked down the red carpet.
In the recorded video, you can hear a voice, presumably a photographer, shouting something like “Quiet please!” or “Be quiet,” from an unseen location.
Upon learning this, Chappell swiftly spun around and gestured towards the group of photographers, shouting, “Quiet down, please!” (or “Be quiet now!”) in a more polite manner.
She then continued, ‘No! Not me, b****!’ and soon garnered cheers from others nearby.
Right after that unexpected event unfolded, I found myself deeply moved by the outpouring of support on social media for Chappell. One user said, “It’s empowering to witness a woman asserting her right to self-defense,” while another chimed in, “At last, a celebrity showing her courage and standing up for herself.
September 2024 – Threatening to Quit Fame
In an interview with The Face magazine, Roan expressed that if the entertainment world grew too risky or hazardous for her, she would choose to step away from stardom.
Later on, she mentioned a memory from an airport encounter, saying, “At 5:30 in the morning, I stepped out of the car, only to find two individuals ready with a stack of posters and items for me to autograph.
It’s clear they aren’t supporters. I declined their request. When they asked for a signature at the airport, I responded something like, “I don’t sign autographs there, I apologize.
Rona mentioned that one person trailed her to the TSA checkpoint, began shouting at her, causing others to turn their attention. He said, “It would be wise for you to be humble. Do you realize where you are currently? Remember your origins.
After a moment, the performer at The Pink Pony Club admitted, ‘If things get too risky, I might decide to step down.’
In my line of work, I’ve always strived to embrace the journey and grow with it. Yet, the current climate has become more perilous than anticipated. The unexpected challenges aren’t what initially drew me in, but here I am, navigating through them. As for the limelight that’s come my way, I can’t help but view it as a double-edged sword – it’s abusive in its intensity and unpredictability at times.
The atmosphere here seems to be reminiscent of harassment, constant criticism online, individuals who refuse to give you space, and public confrontations – similar to the behavior of an abusive former spouse. This is the feeling I have now. I hadn’t realized it could feel this terrible.
Following the airport incident, Chappell confessed that she broke down in the restroom and sought comfort from fellow vocalist, Lorde. In response, Lorde provided her with suggestions on how to handle the situation.
She later explained to The Face that, ‘My mom would love to go to the Grammys or the Brits.’
“I secretly wish I don’t win, as that means I can say ‘We almost made it but didn’t win,’ and avoid the hassle of winning all over again.
As a devoted enthusiast, I find it deeply troubling to observe how this field seems to flourish at the expense of mental wellbeing, exhaustion, excessive workload, and insufficient rest. The paradox is stark: the more unhealthy one becomes, the greater the success often seems. Isn’t it alarming how such a dynamic can be so skewed?
Chappell stated, “The goal is figuring out: how can I avoid self-loathing about my job, my life, and myself? Since the current approach isn’t effective; I’m merely struggling to find a sense of well-being.
