Chappell Roan took to the MTV Video Music Awards stage Wednesday night to perform her hit song “Good Luck, Babe.” After being introduced by Sasha Colby as “your favorite drag queen’s favorite artist,” the singer appeared in a medieval armor-inspired costume as a castle erupted in flames behind her. Throughout the fierce performance, Roan didn’t hold back on her vocals as dancers dressed in medieval-inspired attire showed off their moves around her.

Roan, a rising star in the entertainment industry, has been making waves with her recent projects. She is known for her bold and unconventional roles, often pushing boundaries and challenging traditional expectations. Roan’s red carpet appearance was a testament to her unique style and her willingness to embrace the unexpected.
“It exploded within a matter of four weeks,” she explained last month during a conversation with Saturday Night Live’s Bowen Yang for Interview magazine. “All of a sudden I had an album charting that came out in September [2023].” Amid her rise in popularity, the “Hot To Go!” singer has also been outspoken about ongoing concerning behavior she’s experienced from fans, pleading for people to “stop touching me,” “stop being weird to my family and friends” and “stop assuming things about me.” The 2024 VMAs, hosted by Megan Thee Stallion, were held at Long Island’s UBS Arena Wednesday night.
