Chappell Roan, our girl behind the banger HOT TO GO!, is not here for any of Billboard’s detective work. She’s calling them out like a boss after they published a piece claiming she’s split with her management team. And honestly? She thinks they kind of…suck for it.
So, here’s how it all went down: Billboard posts on their Instagram like, “Big News! Chappell Roan’s got Grammy nominations in all of the Big Four categories. But weirdly, she got left out of a ‘Congrats’ post from her now-‘former’ management team, State of the Art. Suspicious much?” Billboard did the virtual equivalent of whispering, “Something’s up, and we’re just here to ask questions 👀.”
But Chappell wasn’t having it! She hops right into the comments with a simple (but scathing) “Y’all suck for this.” No frills, no extra words – just straight-up internet shade, Chappell-style.
And this reaction isn’t coming out of the blue. Chappell’s had a huge breakout year, and she’s been pretty open about the whole mental health rollercoaster that comes with it. She’s balancing life in the spotlight, Grammy nods, and the whole “alter ego” thing on stage, which is enough to make anyone a little cranky when rumors start flying.
So, Billboard, maybe take a beat next time? It’s not easy being a pop star with Grammy buzz and a personal life. But hey – Chappell, if this shade ever needs a theme song, we know you’d make it a bop.
