A month after pop-music sensation Chappell Roan blasted the “abuse and harassment” accompanying fame to her 3.4 million TikTok followers —prompting ridicule and pushback—the “Hot to Go” singer has pulled out of a major music festival, citing a need to “prioritize my health.” “I apologize to people who have been waiting to see me in NYC & DC this weekend at All Things Go, but I am unable to perform,” Roan, referring to the festival she was to headline in both New York City and Washington D.
C., shared in an Instagram story. “Things have gotten overwhelming over the past few weeks and I am really feeling it.
” In the story, also shared by the All Things Go account , she continued, “I feel pressures to prioritize a lot of things right now and I need a few days to prioritize my health. I want to be present when I perform and give the best shows possible. Thank you for understanding.
Be Back soon xox.” A post shared by All Things Go (@allthingsgo) It’s not the first time Roan, who just won Best New Artist at the MTV Video Music Awards, has been open about her mental health struggles. In 2022, before she blew up as an international superstar, she shared her bipolar 2 diagnosis in a post to Instagram , explaining that she was on meds, “in full-swing hypomania” when she released her single “Naked in Manhattan, and in intensive therapy four days a week.
“I don’t really talk about it much, but it affects me daily and is a pretty big part of my musi.
