A look at why Chappell Roan confronted the photographer at the GUTS World Tour movie premiere
Chappell Roan was in Los Angeles on Friday night to celebrate the premiere of Olivia Rodrigo's GUTS World Tour concert movie. Roan appeared at the October 25 event in a glamorous, red see-through dress, featuring large floral aesthetics.
The 26-year-old singer was walking the red carpet and posing for the cameras when she seemed to have recognized a familiar face. Roan quickly pointed at a photographer in the crowd of paparazzi and walked towards the cameras. Seemingly displeased, she mentioned remembering the photographer as he had been so disrespectful towards her at the 2024 Grammys.
The identity of the photographer was not confirmed, but Chappell Roan alleged that they yelled at her back then. The Femininomenon singer firmly said that she deserved an apology and demanded the same from the photographer.
As per the video, Chappell Roan confronted the photographer while saying:
“You were so disrespectful to me at the Grammys. You yelled at me at the Grammy party. Yes, I remember. You were so rude to me. And I deserve an apology for that. You need to apologize to me.”
The accused photographer was not confirmed to have apologized to the singer and remained silent during the confrontation. The argument came to an end when the event staff intervened and guided Roan away from the photographers at the red carpet.
