Kayleigh Rose, known by her stage name Chappell Roan, has again called out her fans for being abusive and invading her family’s privacy as her influence continues to grow
Roan, on August 9, 2024, shared on the video-sharing platform, TikTok, about the series of practices which she felt were not normal. This included parasocial conduct from fans who pretend to be her friends, resort to stalking, or give a negative response when she turns down a request.
Roan prefaces her video while questioning all the situations that happened to her. She questioned, “I need you to answer questions; just answer my questions for a second.”
She added, “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, or would you assume she’s a bad person? Would you assume everything you read online about her is true? I’m a random b*tch, you’re a random b*tch. Just think about that for a second, OK?”

Roan, in a second TikTok, called out the abusive behavior she faced because she was a celebrity, and discussed how abuse and harassment were normal things in a celeb’s life. While opposing the fans and netizen behaviour, Rose’s statement quote, “abuse, harassment, [and] stalking” have been normalised for celebrities, but it shouldn’t be the case. “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 OK. That doesn’t make it normal. That doesn’t mean that I want it. That doesn’t mean that I like it,”
She added, “That’s not normal. That’s weird. It’s weird how people think that you know a person just because you see them online and you listen to the art they make. That’s f*cking weird. I’m allowed to say no to creepy behaviour, OK?”
This was not the first time the actress called out her fan’s creepy behavior. In the podcast, The Comment Section’s episode Drew Afualo, Rose claimed that she had “pumped the brakes” on what she featured outside her music profession.
