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 VMA debut on Wednesday night, but things got crazy before the show even began, and it was all caught on video. While posing for photos on the red carpet, a photographer seemingly said, “shut the f–k up,” which prompted the star to turn around and deliver an unfiltered response. While it’s unclear whether the photographer was speaking to her or not, Chappell spoke about the incident during an interview with Entertainment Tonight. 

Chappell Roan:
I think for someone who gets a lot of anxiety around people yelling at you, the carpet is horrifying. And I need to, I yelled back. I yelled back! You don’t get to yell at me like that! 

Narrator:
Chappell has been vocal about her experience with fame and setting boundaries, and has received support from her peers in the industry. Noah Kahan took to Twitter to react to the red carpet incident, saying, “I’ll never forget leaving Clive Davis and the horrific s–t photographers and paparazzi or whatever were saying to me in front of my sweet mom, who couldn’t believe it was actually happening. Love this Chappell Roan way to stand up for yourself.”

The night, turned around for Chappell. She gave a show-stopping performance of her Hot 100 hit “Good Luck, Babe!” and took home Best New Artist.
