You’re comparing an adult to two kids who were teens when they hit fame. Shouldn’t adults be able to adult in their late 20s?


Chappell started in the biz when she was 17. Taylor started at 15. Chappell may be 26 now but the support that was there or not there during her early years would have an impact. Again look at Beiber, Demi, etc.


But nobody heard of her until a few months ago. She’s not going to make it if this is how she acts the moment she becomes famous. Also her music kind of sucks. She sounds too much like someone from the 80s I can’t put my finger on. Every song she has I feel like I’ve heard it before. Nothing special.


She’s been building a fan base for at least the last few years. This year was her coming out party. Her segment at Lala drew the biggest crowds. It might seem overnight to you but it’s been years. 80s sound is making a comeback. I don’t care either way if you like her music or not. I agree she is not going to survive the industry bc she lacks emotional regulation. She goes off on photographers. And she’s nowhere the level of Harry or Taylor. If everything is a trigger she should not aim for stardom.


I’m sure you’re the most dedicated superfan, but nobody else had really heard of her until recently. The fame has gone to her head and not in a good way.


Not at all. Are you always this ornery?? I discovered her recently but did the research on her rise. That’s all. Now When was the last time you had some XCX you sound very tense.

I think she’s been really open about having bipolar ii.


Wow, I really nailed it! I will accept my PhD in psychology now.

So why are you telling me “She’s been building her fan base” when, you, like everyone else just heard about her. That’s some pedantic googling only to agree with me.

This is now show #5 and #6 where this has happened. She needs to get her sh#t together or cancel all her shows through the end of the year and start fresh in 2025. And get a social media manager and a therapist. She’s got social media brain rot.

Weirdo simp.

First, she came out and said she’s not gonna be pressured into endorsing a political candidate because there’s issues with both sides. This really pissed people off because she claims to be such an avid LGBTQ + advocate, particularly an advocate of trans people . She’s openly gay herself. So no matter your beliefs there’s obviously one party who fights for those rights as opposed to the other party. So it left her fans really confused about her message. Then, she ranted on social media saying of course she’s going to vote for Kamala, while mispronouncing her name, but saying she was just asking people to use critical thinking skills when choosing a candidate. She went on and on for about 10 minutes about how people need to use their critical thinking skills speaking pretty condescendingly to her fans.

I love her music but as a person she’s not very likable. I don’t care who she votes for, she should’ve just kept it to herself like she wanted to, but it’s more her attitude toward her fans that is so offputting.


I don’t understand why dumb videos on social media are a reason to cancel your concerts. No one would care - everyone wanted to go to her show.

I’m telling you folks - she’s a big ol’ phony. She concocted some dumb “controversy” to try to weasel out of a low paying weekend gig she agreed to a year ago when she was still playing 1000 seat theaters. She somehow managed to play other recent events. And I bet she plays ACL next weekend where she’s getting PAID big money. She already told everyone Chappelle Roan is a “character.” All of this is inauthentic and tbh I’m starting to doubt if the drag and pro-LBGTQ thing is just facade and money grab.


I suspect this, too. And she wouldn’t be the only one—there’s a lot money in it. I remember reading an article about her before she got huge (my teen DD is a big fan)—as I recall her career wasn’t going anywhere for years, then she went though a painful breakup with a boyfriend, reinvented herself as LGBT and became an overnight sensation.

So wait. You think chapelle roan should just suck it up and do her concert rather than deal with her mental health or safety issues, but you don’t think the kids should have to deal with a concert being cancelled because that is too hard on them?

I don’t really get the logic- crap happens.

That said, I really love chappelles songs. I find her fun and love her vocal range and think she has an interesting take on things. She is a little too explicit for me, but I couldn’t care less about who she is endorsing or not endorsing. I’m not 10 and I know that voting is something everyone in a democracy should do. It is what adults do.

Fandom is insane.

Maybe- who cares? Why does that even matter?

Do you think Beyoncé and Taylor’s costumes are real? No one runs around in bejeweled ice skating costumes.

She bailed on her commitment. They didn’t. She should reimburse them for a portion of the ticket price.

Totally agree. She is stable, consistent, and reliable.

Sorry, but she hasn’t been around long enough start acting like Adele. Girl - you need to earn that level of diva.

She can still speak about mental health, her safety, and healthy boundaries….while doing her job.

And no, she’s no longer resonating with young audiences. So many young people have lost tons of money trying to see her in Amsterdam, London, Austin, and now DC and NYC. Young people don’t have the privilege to just not show up without any consequences. Somehow Roan is able to perform on the VMAs and recently booked high $$$$ shows.

She’s a phony.


Seriously those young people need to make more responsible financial decisions. Flying to Amsterdam for a concert is something you do with your f-you money, not what should have gone into your 401k. They can be disappointed but it makes no sense to be surprised - her career is exploding and she is constantly talking about how fragile her mental health is. Also if you’re a young person and you can’t have a good time in Amsterdam because your concert was canceled then there’s nothing chapel roan can do for you.


Seriously. Since when is globetrotting for an f'ing concert any activity for someone who is a minor or isn't making their own big money? Spoilt children!
