Chappell Roan Cancels MORE Concerts at the last minute

Time to adjust her meds.

She doesn't have enough goodwill to pull this stuff.

She's not Taylor or Bey or Gaga or even Billie.

Sad last days, perhaps.

Got it! Here’s a revised version of your argument to make it clearer:

---

She exemplifies the wealthy white liberal, able to navigate political discussions with a "both-sides" approach under the guise of liberalism. However, when confronted about her views, she resorts to emotional reactions and withdraws from the conversation.

This is the same person who emphasizes the importance of pronouncing names correctly in her show, yet recently mispronounced Kamala's name while urging others to educate themselves on key issues and figures. Right, sis.

I’ve heard that she may suffer from bipolar disorder. If true, this could contribute to the instability in her career.

She should have taken a clue from how all the big stars handle this stuff. Just look at Swift, who released her one statement on Insta on debate night so it got drowned out in the news cycle as much as possible, got some blowback from Trump, KEPT QUIET regardless, and the blowback has now largely passed, with her bottom line largely unaffected.

But no, this one has to release TikTok after TikTok, doubling down and making shit worse for herself. Can't say I'm not enjoying this brat do herself in like that.

r2 How did she mispronounce Kamala's name?

by Anonymousreply 5September 27, 2024 8:04 PM

The same way Trump does, r5. Can take the girl out of MAGA country, but can't take the MAGA country out of the girl.

It was a recorded video so there was no need to get that wrong, especially when she takes time out of each of her shows to teach the crowd how to pronounce her stage name.

Wait, is she a Trumptard??

by Anonymousreply 7September 27, 2024 8:24 PM

I’m probably projecting, but I think what I dislike about her is she reminds me so much of my social group in college, who were terminally fragile and sensitive and reactive about everything. I love my leftist/queer community, but sometimes they think in absolutes and extremes, and can’t tolerate anything that’s outside their comfort zone.

I’m in my 30s now and a lot of those people are barely functioning. The world is a hard place for people who feel things so… deeply.

It's a real epidemic, R8.

Young folks raised by social media have been programmed all their lives to exaggerate to get the most attention. They don't know reality when they see it. So everything has to be hyperbolic, and they see all events through that lens.

(sure, not all young folks, but most...)

Prob just starting to display the bipolar. She's around the right age.

Girl's got issues. She seems like a Gaga wannabe on the outside but a Susan Boyle on the inside.

Stop, stan!

As someone who ACTUALLY knows what's going on: like many 20something gay kids of conservative parents, she's trying her best to keep the peace at home, and since her entire family supports Trump, she's declining to publicly support Harris. On the one hand, she's arguably being a coward. OTOH, we were ALL a similar type of coward once, and unlike Chappell we didn't have to navigate our emerging sexuality alongside sudden massive stardom. At a time when literally every celebrity has been asked to pick a side, she opted not to do so, and is paying the price via her enraged fandom.

This really isn't analogous to Taylor releasing her Harris endorsement the night of the debate, and I'd definitely disagree that she dropped it late at night to avoid a media frenzy. There would've been one no matter what, but the important part is that Taylor – unlike much-younger Chappell – knew full well that Trump's attacks against her would look utterly ridiculous. Which they did. (And btw if Chappell's stans are 1/10th as bad as Taylor's, I can understand why she might've been traumatized from thousands of people sliding into her DMs attacking her as a "leftist communist cunt" as well as a "right-winger fascist asshole." If she doesn't pick a side, how do we know which one she's on?)

Btw she's "Instagram official" with her new girlfriend as of a few weeks ago, so that could be part of it as well. (We all know how much rage, fury and misplaced anger that LESBIAN DRAMA can dredge up.)

R5, she said kuh-MAUL-uh instead of COMMA-luh.

by Anonymousreply 14September 27, 2024 9:23 PM

Did Susan Boyle post performative, carefully edited social media posts during her breakdown?

by Anonymousreply 15September 27, 2024 9:29 PM

R13, interesting, did she say that her family is all Trump supporters? Or are you saying you actually know her.

Either way... being non-straight and suddenly famous with a MAGA family back home, could explain a lot. I guess the lyrics to Pink Pony Club (which my 6yo daughter loves to sing, oblivious to the tawdry stripper setting in the video which she hasn't seen) about her horrified and ashamed Mamma back in Tennessee aren't so far fetched.

by Anonymousreply 16September 27, 2024 9:39 PM

What does that have to do with her cancelling her concerts, r13?

And, no, you don't "actually" know anything about lesbians.

by Anonymousreply 17September 27, 2024 9:40 PM

She did say she supports Harris, but not after criticizing both parties (somewhat justifiably). The kicker was her claim that Democrats and Republicans are the same when it comes to trans rights, of all things. She goes on about not wanting a cis woman to make decisions for trans people, as if she’s not a cis lesbian herself.

She has done one interview and 2-3 TikTok videos attempting to clean up the mess from that interview. She’s clearly spiraling.

I don’t care about her excuses of coming from a Republican family. She’s 26 years old—not 16, not 6—26! As a lesbian in a red state, she knows the realities of the situation. She chose to take on a drag persona, yet wants to debate which party is better on LGBT rights? She needs to find every chair in her Missouri McMansion and spend the weekend having several seats.

Learn how to pronounce Kamala's name, especially since she claims to have "done her research."

In one breath: "Don't mess with me, Bitch!"

five minutes later: "I'm super anxious around people and need safe spaces....let's read my diary together"

I'm glad that her fans are coming around to her brand. it's so disingenuous.

by Anonymousreply 19September 27, 2024 9:45 PM

I'm tired of people saying she's 'doing drag' because she puts on some thrift store costumes sometimes, and has some elaborate costumes made for her at other times.

I'm tired of any and all women claiming to be 'drag'. Yet another thing that is being taken away from gay men.

R20 it's funny how Gen Z loves to whine about cultural appropriation. But lots of them love to engage in gay culture appropriation despite being having only tenuous claims to being "Queer"

by Anonymousreply 21September 27, 2024 9:57 PM

She’s exhausting.

by Anonymousreply 22September 27, 2024 10:13 PM

Gen Z is going to ruin what's left of interesting celebrities. Especially pop stars.

I like Billie, and she's much more personable and likable than Roan, but even she's tedious.

Gaga was truly the last megastar pop diva. And for all her flaws, she was intriguing as fuck.

by Anonymousreply 23September 27, 2024 10:17 PM

Dressed in witchy clothes, she speaks in twisted ways, with unusual vocal inflections. She is unpredictable yet influences many. Her strength is her fragility. Dark lesbians.

by Anonymousreply 24September 27, 2024 10:20 PM

Same R8. Social media didn’t start until I was 17. I think that’s why us older millenials don’t understand gen z.

They’re exhausting but also incredibly boring.

Laura Branigan was a mess, too, but at least she made good music.
