\u201cPeople have started to be freaks \u2014 like, [they] follow me and know where my parents live, and where my sister works. All this weird sh*t.\u201d pic.twitter.com\/7rFd0JwLEm<\/a><\/p>\n

Singer Chappell Roan was on The Comment Section podcast hosted by Drew Afualo to talk about a bunch of things including her newfound fame and how she’s handling it so far. <\/p>\n
What she misses about her pre-fame life<\/i>: \u201cI miss frolicking, obviously, because now I’m self-conscious to frolic<\/b>. I miss probably just like being in Forever 21 and not being judged […] Thrifting! That’s what I miss. I mean, I’m in disguise most of the time. But like, I miss just like walking around being by myself. I guess being by myself is what I miss.<\/b>“<\/p>\n
On inappropriate fans<\/i>: “People have started to be freaks \u2014 like follow me and know where my parents live, and where my sister works<\/b>. All this weird shit. And I’m just like… This is the time when I was like a few years ago that I said if stalker vibes, like family was in danger, is when I would quit. And like we’re there. We\u2019re there! And so, I\u2019m just kind of in this battle of like I\u2019ve pumped the brakes on, honestly, anything to make me more known<\/b>. It\u2019s kind of a forest fire right now. I\u2019m not trying to go do a bunch of shit.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the upsides of her meteoric rise<\/i>: \u201cAll these things that are happening to me now are just kind of icing on the cake. I never thought I could fly first class. You know what I mean? I never thought I would get access to so much backstage. Invitations. That’s been cool. Miley invited me to a party, and I was like, \u2018You don\u2019t know that you were my first concert when the Jonas Brothers were opening for you.'”<\/p>\n
On the desire to hide her identity<\/i>: “If I were to be able to start this all over, I don’t think it’s realistic to do a Daft Punk thing, but I wish I would have, you know<\/b>? Like, a helmet. Same with Mr. Marshmello […] But I loved that Hannah [Montana] had two different personalities because it’s my fucking hair that gets me in trouble all the time. So, I wish I would’ve done her.”<\/p>\n
On hate in her comments section<\/i>: “I don’t read the comments anymore, but if I do [get hate], I’m like ‘That’s a bot!’ And if someone makes a video, I’m like, ‘That’s AI.’ How they’re behaving is so delusional so I’m gonna do it back. I’m gonna match it. So I’m just like, you wanna say that shit? You’re not real! […] I used to fight in the comments. Love fighting. I don’t fight anymore. Just simply because, I don’t have to defend myself and prove to you. […] What hurts my feelings is when people come for my character. But then again the people who are judging my character, I’ve never met them! I don’t know them. They don’t know me at all.<\/b>“<\/p>\n
Advice<\/i>: “If you’re chill with your family being like this bitch, even when it comes to drag, or wanting to do literally anything creatively, performance, whatever, you’ve gotta be okay with people not taking you seriously. Having no money. And it taking many years.”<\/p>\n
Fun anecdote<\/i>: Chappell went to a pilates class where the instructor commented on how much she looked like Chappell Roan and asked if she’d heard of Chappell Roan or listened to her music. And the instructor didn’t fully believe her when she said she IS Chappell Roan.
