Chappell Roan has received nothing but love and support from fellow female artists as she attempts to navigate fame and all that comes with it amid her ongoing rise to stardom.
The "Pink Pony Club" standout revealed the kind words friend Charli XCX recently shared with her during a soundcheck Q&A before her show in Dublin, Ireland, on Tuesday (September 17), citing love and inspiration.
“I love Charli so much. She was like the first girl to reach out and check on me. She was like ‘Hi, this is about to get really hard and if you need a friend, I’ll be here for you’. So it’s just so sick to see her just ruling the fucking world and doing it her way."
Roan continued, revealing exactly why she looks up to the Brat icon as an artist and friend.
"I think so many people have tried to put her in a pop box of like ‘she’s a pop star’ and like she is but she’s like a club girl and is fully living. She’s fueling the fantasy and it’s working because it’s her and it’s so inspiring to me. She’s just, I am so proud of her for ‘Brat’ and I can’t wait to see her and Troye [Sivan]’s show."
According to NME, the "Good Luck, Babe!" songstress has been very vocal about challenges she's faced since taking the spotlight, including weird behavior from fans that she will not tolerate. In a recent TikTok series, the standout explained why the concept of "entitled" and "aggressive" fan behavior is so strange to her, expressing:
“Would you be offended if she says no to your time because she has her own time? Would you stalk her family? Would you follow her around? Would you try to dissect her life and bully her online? This is a lady you don’t know. And she doesn’t know you at all. Would you assume that she’s a good person, assume she’s a bad person? Would you assume everything you read about her online is true? I’m a random b****. You’re a random b****. Just think about that for a second, okay?”
Lorde also reached out to Roan to ease the hitmaker's mind amid the newfound chaos, gifting her with a list of eight things she wished someone told her when she rose to fame.
"She sent me a list of things I should do. Literally wrote down eight things she wished someone would have told her when she was going through it. And she went through f****** hell. She was a baby!"
The "Red Wine Supernova" star continues to be showered with consideration and support as she voices her opinion on the oddities of fame.
