Becoming a famous artist is a dream for many, but as Chappell Roan has revealed, it comes with its own set of challenges. The 26-year-old singer, who released her debut EP School Nights in 2017, saw her career skyrocket with the release of her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, last year. The album was even deemed a "sleeper hit", thanks to her tour with Olivia Rodrigo and performances at Coachella.
However, along with her rising star also came some downsides, as Chappell recently shared. In an interview on The Comment Section with Drew Afualo, she opened up about one particular downfall of fame in the past few months. Chappell, whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, confessed that she misses being able to take drugs in public without feeling self-conscious. She reminisced about the days when she could let loose and be a "freak" at the bar or make out with someone without worrying about being judged.
But now, with her increasing fame, Chappell has to be more cautious about her behavior in public. She revealed that she often goes out in disguise and tries to avoid drawing attention to herself. Despite her efforts, some people have still started to act "weird" around her and her family, now that she is a well-known artist. Chappell lamented that people have even gone as far as following her and knowing personal details about her family, which can be unsettling.
However, despite these challenges, Chappell also shared that she is grateful for the immense support she has received from fans. In a video posted on TikTok, she expressed her gratitude for the love and support she has received from fellow artists who have reached out to her. She shared that it makes her believe in the world and is reassured that she has a strong support system.
Despite her success, Chappell has also been vocal about the difficulties of keeping up with her career. In a recent show in North Carolina, she took a moment to be honest with her audience and confessed that she was feeling overwhelmed with the fast-paced nature of her fame. She shared that she was having a hard time keeping up and that it felt "heavy" at times. However, she also reassured her fans that performing is all she's ever wanted and thanked them for understanding.
Chappell's story is a reminder that fame may come with perks, but it also has its own set of challenges. As she continues to navigate her career, we can only hope that she receives the support and love she deserves. After all, as she said, it's the people who have supported her that have made her believe in the world.
