Chappell Roan's biggest moans! Everything the pop star has complained about since becoming famous just last year

Chappell Roan has had a major breakthrough in her career in 2024 - although she has professionally been making music since she was 17-years-old.

The Pink Pony Club songstress, 26 - who is currently in the midst of her Midwest Princess Tour - has previously opened up about her whirlwind rise to fame and dealing with 'weird' fans.

Nearly one year earlier, Roan - whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz - dropped her debut studio album, The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess, which eventually landed the number two spot on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.

Most recently, the star threatened to quit fame due to unwanted attention - shortly after sharing she's 'frustrated' people are only now taking her seriously.

However, in response, some fans blasted the performer for 'complaining' and not 'appreciating' her fame, while one previously labeled the star as 'Chappell Moan.'

As Chappell's fame continues to rise - and after her recent 2024 MTV VMAs performance - DailyMail.com takes a closer look at the singer's biggest complaints since becoming famous last year.

September 2023 - Album Release and Success Almost one year ago, Chappell Roan released her debut studio album under Island Records on September 22, 2023 called The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess.

While the LP's success was a slow rise, the initial critique of the songs on the album was positive.

Towards the beginning of the 2024, the album - which contains tracks such as Good Luck, Babe! - gained wider recognition, and soon landed top spots on charts around the globe.

The LP reached the number one spot on the U.K. Albums chart, number two on the U.S. Billboard 200 and number one on New Zealand Albums chart.

Her quick rise to stardom was aided when Roan began touring with Olivia Rodrigo as a supporting act during the Guts World Tour.

Although Chappell began to garner recognition last year, she has been focusing on her passion for music since childhood. At 17-years-old, she released an original song called, Die Young, onto YouTube.

She soon signed with Atlantic Records, and dropped songs such as Good Hurt as well as her debut EP, School Nights.

Later in 2020, she released Pink Pony Club which was different from her previous music.

However, she was soon dropped from Atlantic Records due to her newer music not gaining enough traction or profits at the time.

Roan continued to purse her passion for music after moving back to her home state of Missouri and then eventually returning to Los Angeles. Soon after, The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess dropped - and she was catapulted to fame.

September 2023 - Adjusting to Stardom That same month, Chappell talked to Vanity Fair about uploading videos to YouTube when she was a teenager and was asked if she wanted to be 'discovered.'

In response, Roan told the outlet, 'I was just sharing it. I didn't know that I was gonna get discovered months after that. It was very dramatic.'

She then reflected on keeping busy with performing and stated, 'I found it to be pretty exhausting just interacting with so many people a night.'

'Not anything they did wrong, but my soul was just so overwhelmed,' the singer further explained.

'Shows really take it out of you. It's a really emotional rollercoaster being on tour, so it's hard to play the character all the time.'

However, the star later gushed that she enjoys 'touring' and added 'It's my favorite part of my job, which is very rare and most people f***ing hate it and it's so bad.'

'The shows are so fun for me and for the audiences and I love my band and I just have a great team and the merch is so cute. This project is really fun. The worst part is that it's sometimes, or most of the time, overwhelming and exhausting.'

June 2024 - Difficulty Keeping Up Earlier this summer in June, Chappell took to the stage during her concert in Raleigh, North Carolina - but had an emotional moment in the middle of the performance.

At one point, with tears running down her face, she addressed her fans and stated, 'I guess I just want to be honest with the crowd.'

'I just feel a little off today 'cause I think that my career is going really fast and it's really hard to keep up. So I'm just being honest that I'm just having a hard time today.'

She further expressed, 'So sorry that - I'm not trying to give you, like, a lesser show. It's just, there's a lot...Thank you for understanding.'

In conclusion, Chappell told the crowd that while the swift rise to fame 'is heavy sometimes' for her, it's 'all I've ever wanted.'

July 2024 - Candid on 'Stalker' Fans and Fame A few months earlier in July, Roan discussed dealing with attention on an episode of The Comment Section podcast and said at the time she has 'pumped the brakes' on fame.

'People have started to be freaks, like, [they] follow me and know where my parents live, and where my sister works,' she told host Drew Afualo. 'All this weird s***.'

Chappell - who is being labeled as Gen Z's Madonna - explained that she had made a promise to herself that she would stop making music if fans gave her 'stalker vibes' or made her family feel as if they were in any 'danger.'

'And we're there, we're there,' she stated. 'So, I'm just kind of in this battle, I've like pumped the brakes on honestly anything to make me more known.'

The Pink Pony Club performer admitted, 'It's kind of a forest fire right now. I'm not trying to go do a bunch of s***.'

However, she also opened up about the positive side of fame, such as being recognized by stars who she has looked up to for years. 'People who I've looked up to my entire life are like peers, which is sick.'

She also recalled, 'Miley [Cyrus] invited me to a party, and I was like, "You don't know that you were my first concert when the Jonas Brothers were opening for you."'

Also during the podcast episode, she talked about what she missed most before her rise to fame.

'[Doing] drugs in public. That's what I miss. Just like, rolling up, being a f***ing freak at the bar or making out with someone at the bar,' she said.

'I miss frolicking, obviously, because now I'm self-conscious to frolic,' Chappell added, and 'being in a Forever 21 and not being judged.'

'I'm in disguise most of the time. But like, I miss just walking around being by myself. I guess being by myself is [what] I miss.'

June 2024 - Reflection and Getting Support Chappell also got candid with her fans in a TikTok video shared in June and admitted that life has been 'cuckoo,' but stated that other singers in the industry have offered their support, per People.

'I'm reflecting on my life and the past couple of weeks have been cuckoo. But what's so reassuring and so f***ing sick is the pop girls that you and I have loved our whole lives...'

'Or have been f***ing stans [of] the past two or three years - a lot of them have reached out and are so supportive and girl's girl.'

Roan expressed, 'To have people I look up to reach out and offer like a friend or help, I don't know, it's just sick and it makes me believe in the world.'

August 2024 - Slamming 'Weird' Fans Last month in August, the songstress shared a rant on TikTok as she slammed 'weird' fans.

'I need you to answer questions - just answer my questions for a second. If you saw a random woman on the street, would you yell at her from your car window?' she expressed.

'Would you harass her in public? Would you go up to a random lady and say, "Can I take a photo with you?" and she says, "No, what the f***?" And then you get mad at this random lady?'

She continued, 'Would you be offended if she says no to your time - because she has her own time?' the Good Luck, Babe! artist said. '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 online about her is true?'

'I'm a random b****, you're a random b****. Just think about that for a second, okay?' the performer added in the clip.

Chappell then explained that she refused to accept 'stalking' and 'harassment' as 'normal' behavior from fans.

'I don't care that abuse and harassment, stalking, whatever, is a normal thing to do to people who are famous or a little famous, whatever.'

She added, 'I don't care that it's normal. I don't care that this crazy type of behavior comes along with the job, the career field I've chosen.'

'That does not make it okay that doesn't make it normal. That doesn't mean that I want it, that doesn't mean that I like it...'

August 2024 - Doesn't Care About Success While talking to Interview Magazine last month, Chappell Roan also admitted that she didn't care about being a success in the music industry.

At one point she said, 'Like, my career doesn't mean anything more now that I have a charting album and song. If anything, I'm just like, "F*** you guys for not seeing what actually matters."

'A chart is so fleeting. Everyone leaves the charts. I'm just like, "This is giving valedictorian."'

Chappell added, 'But everyone graduates. The valedictorian doesn't really matter, and that's kind of what I feel like right now.'

'I'm like, "Cool. Maybe I'm valedictorian, but it's weird that we're graduating, and everyone's going to move, so..."'

August 2024 - Doubling Down on Invasive Fans Not long after uploading her TikTok video where she called out 'weird' fans, Roan stood by her stance on Instagram.

In a lengthy statement, she wrote, 'I'm not afraid of the consequences for demanding respect.'

Chappell added, 'This isn't a new situation. Why is a girl expressing her fears and boundaries so infuriating?'

'For the past 10 years I've been going non-stop to build my project and it's come to the point that I need to draw lines and set boundaries.'

The singer added, 'I've been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions and I just need to lay it out and remind you, women don't owe you s**t.'

'When I'm on stage, when I'm performing, when I'm in drag, when I'm at a work event, when I'm doing press...I am at work. Any other circumstance, am not in work mode. I am clocked out.'

'I don't agree with the notion that I owe a mutual exchange of energy, time, or attention to people I do not know, do not trust, or who creep me out - just because they're expressing admiration.'

Roan further explained that she was, 'specifically talking about predatory behavior (disguised as "superfan" behavior) that has become normalized because of the way women who are well-known have been treated in the past.'

'Please do not assume you know a lot about someone's life, personality, and boundaries because you are familiar with them or their work online.'

While choosing a life in the spotlight, the star stated that she did not have to accept, 'creepy people, being touched, and being followed.'

She further typed, 'It is not the woman's duty to suck it up and take it; it is the harasser's duty to be a decent person, leave her alone, and respect that she can wear whatever she wants and still deserve peace in this world.'

'I am scared and tired. I feel more love than I ever have in my life. I feel the most unsafe I have ever felt in my life.'

In conclusion, Chappell explained while there is a part of her for performing, there is also 'a part of myself that is just for me, and I don't want that taken away from me. Thank you for reading this. I appreciate your understanding and support.'

September 2024 - Blasted By Fans and Sharing 'Frustration' Roan voiced her 'frustration' that people are only now beginning to take her seriously as an artist - which she revealed during an interview with Rolling Stone.

'What's so infuriating is how people are just now taking me seriously,' she expressed. 'Like, "You know what, b***h? I've been doing this s*** and you're just now catching up."'

'Part of me hopes I never have a hit again because then no one will ever expect anything from me again,' the star said.

But Chappell explained that music is her passion. 'It's my dream job. I never know if it's going to be like this ever again, which is kind of scary.'

However, some fans were once again left unimpressed and jumped to X to share their thoughts, with one penning, 'All she does is complain.'

Another typed, 'I am tired of hearing about this woman all she does is complain,' while one shared, 'Girl, can you enjoy for a sec? You complaining about everything is kinda annoying.'

A social media user wrote, 'Girl are you appreciating your fame or what,' while one added, 'Fame takes time to come baby, calm down.'

'All she does is complain oh my god,' a fan penned, and another shared, 'Can she stop setting herself up.'

Others wrote, 'One thing about her is she's gonna complain about her job,' as well as, 'She should be thankful to her fans instead that she is getting the fame and getting recognized.'

However, some fans came to Chappell's defense on X, with one adding, 'Chappell Roan's frustration is totally understandable. It's tough when your hard work isn't recognized until later.'

'Well, that's the music industry for you-people love to jump on the bandwagon once you're already blowing up,' another penned.

'Chappell Roan has been grinding for years, and now everyone wants to act like they "discovered" her. Classic.'

During her interview with Rolling Stone, she talked about fans and expressed, ' I don't want to be agoraphobic. That's [how] most of my peers [feel]. Every f***ing artist is on this page.'

'Everyone is uncomfortable with fans. Some people just have more patience. I f***ing don't.'

September 2024 - MTV VMA's Red Carpet While attending the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards on September 11 in New York, Roan notably had a brief verbal incident with a photographer while walking the red carpet.

In video footage that captured the specific moment, a photographer could be heard yelling, 'Shut the f*** up,' somewhere off-camera.

Upon hearing that, Chappell quickly turned around and pointed to the crowd of photographers and exclaimed, 'YOU shut the f*** up!'

She then continued, 'No! Not me, b****!' and soon garnered cheers from others nearby.

Shortly after the incident, social media users came to Chappell's defense, with one saying, 'Love to see a woman defend herself' while another added, 'Finally a celebrity standing up for herself.'

September 2024 - Threatening to Quit Fame During an interview with The Face, Roan told the outlet that she would quit fame if the industry became too 'dangerous.'

She then recalled an incident at an airport and revealed, 'I get out of the car, it's 5:30 in the morning, and there's two guys waiting with a bunch of posters and s*** for me to sign.'

'I know they're not fans. I said no. I was like, ​"I don't sign anything at the airport, I'm sorry."'

Rona said, '[One of them] follows me to the TSA line, starts yelling at me and everyone just turns and looks. He's like, ​"You should really humble yourself. Do you know where you are right now? Don't forget where you came from."'

The Pink Pony Club performer then expressed, 'I told myself, if this ever gets dangerous, I might quit.'

'It's dangerous now, and I'm still going. But that part is not what I signed up for,' she said, and then called fame 'abusive.'

'The vibe of this - stalking, talking s***t online, [people who] won't leave you alone, yelling at you in public - is the vibe of an abusive ex-husband. That's what it feels like. I didn't know it would feel this bad.'

After the incident at the airport, Chappell admitted that she cried in the bathroom and reached out to fellow singer, Lorde, who then 'sent me a list of things I should do [in that situation]...'

She later explained to The Face that, 'My mom would love to go to the Grammys or the Brits.'

'I'm kind of hoping I don't win, because then everyone will get off my a**: ​"See guys, we did it and we didn't win, bye!" I won't have to do this again!'

'This industry and artistry f*****g thrive on mental illness, burnout, overworking yourself, overextending yourself, not sleeping. You get bigger the more unhealthy you are. Isn't that so f****d up?'

Chappell added, 'The ambition is: how do I not hate myself, my job, my life, and do this? Because right now, it's not working. I'm just scrambling to try to feel healthy.'
