AceShowbiz - Chappell Roan, the pop sensation behind hits like "Good Luck, Babe!" and "Hot to Go!", recently paused her performance in Raleigh, North Carolina to candidly discuss her mental health challenges amidst her rapid ascent in the music industry. The 26-year-old artist stopped her Wednesday evening, June 12 show at the Red Hat Amphitheater to share her honest feelings with the audience.
"I just want to be honest with the crowd. I just feel a little off today because I think that my career is just kind of going really fast and it's really hard to keep up. I'm just being honest that I'm just having a hard time today," Roan said. "I'm not trying to give you a lesser show, it's just, there's a lot. Thank you for understanding. This is all I've ever wanted. It's just heavy sometimes."
The crowd responded with supportive gestures, holding up their hands in the shape of hearts and shouting words of encouragement. This touching interaction highlighted the strong connection Roan shares with her fans.
Chappell Roan's rise to prominence has been nothing short of spectacular. Six years after her initial single debut in 2017, she released her first studio album, "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess", in September 2023. Although its singles did not initially achieve mainstream success, the release of "Good Luck, Babe!" in April marked a turning point. The song has steadily climbed the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 26.
The increasing popularity of "Good Luck, Babe!" has also propelled other tracks from her album, such as "Red Wine Supernova" and "Hot to Go!", to debut on the Hot 100 chart at positions 75 and 80, respectively. Roan's colorful stage persona and elaborate costumes, including a memorable performance dressed as the Statue of Liberty at New York City's Governors Ball, have garnered significant attention.
