00:00Chappell Roane had a tense encounter with a photographer at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
00:06Roane made her debut tonight as a performer during the award show and posed on the red
00:10carpet in a medieval-inspired getup. In a clip shared on social media, a photographer seemed
00:14to tell her to shut the f*** up after she turned away from the camera. The Hot To Go singer quickly
00:19reacted. Someone in the background was heard cheering her on, remarking,
00:28When asked by The Incident by Entertainment Tonight, Roane explained,
00:31It's quite overwhelming and quite scary. I think for someone who gets a lot of anxiety
00:35around people yelling at you, the carpet is horrifying. And I need to — I yelled back.
00:40I yelled back. You don't get to yell at me like that."
00:42Last month, the pop star asserted her boundaries on social media
00:45after experiencing alarming behavior from people who claim to be her fans.
00:49For the past 10 years, I've been going nonstop to build my project,
00:52and it's come to the point that I need to draw lines and set boundaries.
00:56I want to be an artist for a very, very long time.
00:58In the caption, Roane pointed out,
01:00If you see me as a bitch or ungrateful, or my entire statement upsets you,
01:04baby, that's you. You gotta look inward and ask yourself,
01:07wait, why am I so upset by this? Why is a girl expressing her fears and boundaries so infuriating?
