  • Hey good on her. I happen to be a fan of hers. Let me save the interested a click to either of those terrible platforms (watch it if you want to see the full response, I’m cutting to the good part here):

    The quote in question, I think from here: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/sep/20/fame-is-like-going-through-puberty-chappell-roan-on-sexuality-superstardom-and-the-joy-of-drag

    “I have so many issues with our government in every way,” she says. “There are so many things that I would want to change. So I don’t feel pressured to endorse someone. There’s problems on both sides. I encourage people to use your critical thinking skills, use your vote – vote small, vote for what’s going on in your city.” The change she wants to see in the US in this election year, she says instantly, is “trans rights. They cannot have cis people making decisions for trans people, period.”

    Twitter response, my transcription (2:00 mark): Roan: “So hear it from my mouth if you’re still wondering, no I’m not voting for Trump and yes I will always question those in power and those making decisions over other people and I will stand up for what is right and what I believe in and like, it’s always at the forefront of my projects and I’m sorry you fell for the clickbait.”

    I agree with everything she said.
