Chappell Roan is setting boundaries — and she's not spinning the wheel when it comes to privacy and respect. The 26-year-old "Hot To Go!" singer took a stand against overbearing fan behavior in a TikTok video that has everyone talking.
On Monday, August 19, Roan, whose real name is Kayleigh Rose, expressed frustration with the entitled attitude some fans display. "I don't give a f–k if you think it's selfish of me to say no for a photo or for your time or for a hug. That's not normal, that's weird!" she stated firmly.
The rising popstar's callout is rooted in a disturbing trend she's noticed where fans feel they have unrestricted access to her life. "Just answer my questions for a second," she asks viewers in the two-part clip. "If you saw a random woman on the street, would you yell at her from the car window? Would you harass her in public? Would you go up to a random lady and say, 'Can I get a photo with you?' And she's like, 'No, what the f—?' And then you get mad at this random lady? Would you be offended if she says no to your time because she has her own time?" she said, adding, "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."
Despite turning off comments on her TikTok, Roan's message ignited a wave of discussion across other platforms.
"If you don't want to be noticed or approached in public or be cool to your fans why don't you do something else with your life?" one person asked on her recent Instagram post.
Another countered on X (formerly Twitter), "Fame doesn't make abuse or harassment acceptable. It's time people learned that basic respect doesn't disappear just because someone's in the public eye."
Roan's frustration over intrusive fan behavior isn't new. Back in July on The Comment Section podcast hosted by Drew Afualo, the Missouri native opened up about how deep the issue of stalking really goes. "People have started to be freaks, [they] follow me and know where my parents live, and where my sister works. All this weird s**t. A few years ago when I said that if [there were] stalker vibes or my family was in danger, I would quit. And we're there," she shared.
