Singer-songwriter Chappell Roan was not expecting the crowd’s response to her performance at a rock-heavy festival in Mexico City, and she is being honest about her experience about which she was really nervous.
The ‘Pink Pony Club’ hitmaker has admitted to fans she was “quite nervous” about stepping onstage at Corona Capital 2025, as the only pop headliner, reports ‘Female First UK’.
Foo Fighters and Linkin Park also headlined the event with the lineup also including the likes of Queens Of The Stone Age, Deftones, Garbage and Weezer, and she was stunned by how the audience vibed with her set.
Reflecting on the show, Chappell penned on Instagram, “I was quite nervous for Mexico City because I wasn’t sure if the crowd would vibe with me because it’s such a rock leaning festival and I was like, will ppl still like me if I’m pop? (sic)”.
She continued, “But omg the crowd was so wonderful and I felt so loved and supported! So so sick I got to do this thank you for having me. l will continue practicing my Spanish every day. Gracias! (sic)”.
As per ‘Female First UK’, she included a few pictures from the performance and her custom Alexander McQueen “screaming banshee” ensemble. The singer has had a challenging year amid struggles with her mental health and recently admitted she wasn’t going to do a US tour until she was reminded of her purpose, to “bring queer people joy and tell them that it’s OK”.
Speaking candidly to fans at her show in Pasadena last month, she said, “I wasn’t gonna do a US tour until the very last minute, I decided to do one, and I’m so glad I did. It’s so fun. This job is so awesome. Thank you for making it awesome.
Everything made sense this year, Why I do this. Last year, I was really questioning, ‘Why am I doing this to myself? I’m so sad. I feel so left out in public. I feel so awkward all the time’. And I always felt like, ‘Why am I putting myself through this? If this feels so, if this is taking so much away from me, what is this for?’”.
She continued, “And then I started doing shows again, and it all made sense that it was to literally bring queer people joy and tell them that it’s OK. There’s so many things in the world that are so ‘f*** you’ and like, then there is this. The only thing that matters anymore is joy to me. And protecting that, and peace and safety. So I hope you know that when you are here, you are safe, and I want you here, you can be whoever you are tonight”.
Thanking her loyal fans, she said, “You’re cherished for everything that you are. Even if you’re not queer, I hope you know that I include you. This isn’t just for the gays. Thank you for being here and supporting me and supporting each other. This is the biggest headline show I’ve ever had. So thank you”.(Agency)
