Chappell Roan demands an apology from photographer at Olivia Rodrigo’s concert film premiere

Good luck, baby!

Chappell Roan demanded an apology from a photographer on the red carpet at “Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour” on Friday night, a month after she told another photographer to “shut up.”

Roan was posing for photos when she made eye contact, pointed and walked toward an unidentified photographer who she claimed yelled at her at the Grammy Awards in February.

“You were so disrespectful to me at the Grammys,” she told the paparazzo, according to footage posted on social media. “You yelled at me at the Grammy party. Yes, I remember. You were so rude to me. And for that I deserve an apology. “You have to apologize to me,” Roan said.

The 26-year-old was heard saying: “No, no, no, you have to apologize” as someone working the red carpet approached him and tried to intervene.

It seems the redhead, wearing a floral mesh dress, didn’t get what she was hoping for.

This clash comes just over a month after the “Hot To Go!” event. The singer was caught on camera yelling at a photographer to “Shut up!” during the VMAs red carpet pre-show at the UBS Arena in Long Island, New York on September 11th.

Roan first took a step back to adjust her medieval outfit before turning around and shouting, “Don’t do it. Not me, damn it!”

Shortly after the incident, the “Pink Pony Club” singer recalled what led to the heated moment.

“It’s pretty overwhelming and pretty scary. I think for someone who’s very afraid of people yelling at you, the carpet is terrible,” Roan told Entertainment Tonight. “And I shouted back. I shouted back! You can’t yell at me like that.”

Roan was named best new artist at the awards show, but days later she took another controversial step, canceling concerts at the All Things Go Music Festival in New York and Washington, DC, to focus on her mental health.

“I apologize to the people who were waiting to see me at All Things Go in NYC and DC this weekend, but I won’t be able to perform,” Roan wrote in an Instagram Story on September 27. “Things have gotten overwhelming in the past few weeks and I’m really feeling it.”

Fans who had come to the festival especially for her were outraged.

“I spent over $900 on tickets to this festival for my friend’s birthday (and it’s just ridiculous that she canceled the day before). I’m so mad,” one fan wrote on Reddit.

“She has the right to her mental health but she seriously lacks professionalism and I hope she makes it right for the fans who literally spent a lot of money to see her,” another commented.

The star, who has been diagnosed with severe depression, insisted she wanted to “be present” while performing, but that apparently wasn’t possible after feeling so much pressure in the spotlight.

In an interview with the Guardian, Roan claimed she had “all the symptoms of severe depression”, including brain fog, poor concentration, forgetfulness and what she called a “very lackluster outlook”.
