Chappell Roan told a photographer on the 2024 MTV VMAs red carpet and talked about why she did it. Keep watching to see her reasoning.
Narrator:
Chappell Roan had a big night at the MTV VMAs and made a bold statement on the red carpet with a fiery exchange with a photographer. Chappell made her MTV VMAs debut on Wednesday night, but things got crazy before the show even started and it was all caught on video. While posing for photos on the red carpet, a photographer apparently said, “shut the f–k up,” prompting the star to turn around and give an unfiltered response. While it's unclear whether or not the photographer was talking to her, Chappell spoke about the incident during an interview Entertainment Tonight.
Chappell Roan:
I think for someone who has a lot of anxiety around people yelling at you, carpet is scary. And I should, I shouted back. I shouted back! You don't have time to yell at me like that!
Narrator:
Chappell has spoken about her experience with fame and setting boundaries and received support from her peers in the industry. Noah Kahan took to Twitter about the red carpet incident, saying: “I'll never forget leaving Clive Davis and the horrible photographers and paparazzi or whatever they said to me in front of my sweet mom, who couldn't believe it was happening in reality. Love that Chappell Roan way to stand up for yourself.”
The night, turned for Chappell. She gave an impressive performance of her Hot 100 hit “Good Luck, Babe!” and took home Best New Artist.
