I’ve been getting into Chappell Roan lately, she’s blowing up, you know? And naturally, I started wondering about her fans. What are they called? Are they like the Swifties or the BTS Army? So, I did what any normal person would do: I dove deep into the internet.
My first stop was her Wikipedia page, trying to find any info about her fans. It’s always a good place to start, right? I learned that her real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, and Chappell Roan is a stage name, which is kind of a tribute to her grandfather, Dennis K. Chappell. Pretty cool, huh? But nothing about the fans.
Then I moved on to TikTok. I figured if anyone knows about Chappell Roan fans, it’s gonna be other fans on TikTok. I searched for “Chappell Roan fans” and, boy, did I find a lot.
Turns out, she actually made a couple of TikToks addressing some “creepy behavior” from fans, she called them out for stalking her and her family. She even mentioned some “not normal” fan practices in one of the videos. I felt bad for her, honestly. Fame can be a double-edged sword, right?
- She made videos to tell fans– she made a TikTok to tell them what not to do.
- She talked to them -she told them what they did was wrong.
- She told them the behaviors were creepy– she addressed these issues with them about her family and stalking.
I also stumbled upon some news articles, probably because of those TikToks. One mentioned an incident at a bar and an “aggressive stalker.” Yikes! It sounds like she’s been dealing with a lot. There was this one article from September 10th that really dug into these terrifying fan experiences she’s had.
Honestly, after all this digging, I’m a bit bummed out. I just wanted to know what her fans were called, but I ended up learning about the dark side of her growing fame. It’s a good reminder that even though we love our favorite artists, we gotta respect their boundaries. I also didn’t find what her fans were called. It seems that Chappell Roan fans are just that, Chappell Roan fans.
It seems like, for now, they’re just known as “Chappell Roan fans.” Maybe that’s better, though. Keeps things simple, and puts the focus on her music, not some cutesy fan name.
