0

172.358 - 204.981 Chappell Roan

10th year, and after just years and years of pushing and pushing and pushing, I'm from southern Missouri and moved to L.A. It's just the most cliche story ever. But yeah, 2020, ran out of money. Moved back in with my parents. Working the drive-thru. Got dropped by my label. Broke up with someone I thought I was gonna marry. Oh, man. Wasn't going to work out regardless. And then I started like.

206.412 - 211.417 Chappell Roan

I just really was like, I'm going to do the pop thing. And I'm just going to go for it. And I have no money.

Chapter 3: What inspired Chappell Roan to embrace her authentic self?

211.837 - 232.977 Chappell Roan

And I really like drag and all these weird Gucci looks. But I can't afford that. So I'm just going to go to thrift stores and start thrifting things I think are ridiculous. And that would make my 10-year-old self really happy. Yeah, totally. My whole life and career changed when I did inner child work. And I think that's why my career changed.

0

232.957 - 259.268 Chappell Roan

like absolutely skyrocketed because i started to just like have fun and like be glittery and not take it seriously yeah and be more authentic to who you really are i think that's what people latch on to like when i i dedicated my project to honoring my inner child yeah and like that's when it started working love which is like so affirming that like

410.482 - 432.81 Chappell Roan

I went to Pilates this morning, and the entire class was full, and the instructor was on the microphone, and she was like, hello, welcome. You look just like Chapel Roan. Do you know who that is? I was like, yeah. No, and I fucking hate her. That's what you should have said. One time I... Well, then... Okay, I'll finish this story. No, you're fine. Then...

0

433.87 - 444.149 Chappell Roan

She was like blabbing about Chapel Rome, whatever. And then at the end, she's like, you seriously look so much like her. Do you know who that is? Do you like her music?

444.65 - 445.531 Drew Afualo

No, she sounds like a bitch.

445.552 - 468.382 Chappell Roan

And I was just not. I was part of me wants to be like. what makes you think I would like her? Like, or like, you know, just to like make, what are you trying to say? Um, but I was like, you know, not her being homophobic. If anyone's gonna be homophobic, it's me. Like towards chapel straight up. Um, but she didn't believe me when I said, well, it is.

469.424 - 473.409 Chappell Roan

Cause she's like, is it okay if I call you chapel for fun? Yeah. She's like, cause you look so much like her.

Chapter 5: What challenges does Chappell Roan face as a public figure?

473.449 - 475.333 Chappell Roan

And I was like, I, I am.

0

475.353 - 479.764 Drew Afualo

Do you think it was one of those where they're pretending they don't think it's you? Or did she genuinely just say anything?

0

479.784 - 485.74 Chappell Roan

Because she got really scared whenever she started to believe me. She's like, no, you're not. And I was like, okay.

0

485.76 - 491.535 Drew Afualo

That's like, okay, I'm nowhere near you on the scale of being recognized or being a celebrity. However...

0

491.515 - 515.92 Drew Afualo

whenever fans do that pretending shit which she i'm sure she wasn't but i'm sure you've had ones that have like where they go you look so familiar this just happened to me i went to vegas for work and there was an attendant that was like checking key cards so i was just waiting at the bottom of the elevator with my boyfriend because my i was waiting for my family to come down and she was like you look familiar and then i was like i don't know maybe and then she was she goes drew and

515.9 - 540.551 Drew Afualo

And I go, yeah. She goes, I knew it. I knew it. I literally knew it. And then she was just staring at me and it's quiet. And then she goes, you're so much prettier in person. And then I go, thank you. Thank you. And then she goes, I hope that didn't sound weird. It did. Actually, it sounded rude is what it was. And that's why she was staring at me for so long because she thinks of me as a fugo.

540.612 - 553.594 Drew Afualo

And then when she saw me in real life, she's like, that's not a fugo. That can't be her. And then she goes, oh, it is you. Wow, you're way better looking in person. Because you're a big thuggo on the internet. That is... That's my most complimented thing is that.

553.614 - 556.619 Chappell Roan

You're so much prettier in person. That is so offensive.

Chapter 6: How does Chappell Roan handle criticism and online hate?

556.639 - 560.707 Drew Afualo

That is... I thought so, chapel. But apparently, that's just my thing.

0

560.747 - 564.013 Chappell Roan

Yeah. I was just like... That word...

0

564.601 - 587.233 Drew Afualo

0

587.213 - 595.587 Drew Afualo

I got some weird ones, so I can only imagine what yours are like. I mean, Jesus. Other than that lady harassing you today.

0

595.607 - 612.429 Chappell Roan

She said, admit it, you're a doppelganger. She just didn't believe me. And I was like, it is. And she's like, are you serious? I'm going to freak out and cry. And I was like... I'm leaving. Must not be that big of a fan because she didn't recognize you. No, and then she finally believed me and asked me for a photo or whatever.

612.91 - 620.397 Chappell Roan

And then I think the craziest one is like I was just being a freak in Central Park.

621.898 - 622.438 Drew Afualo

And I'm... You're being perceived while you frolic. Yeah.

791.152 - 806.328 Chappell Roan
