Mark my words, Chappell will be a household name and an ICON in no time at all, just you wait!!!
DAVE Chappelle is, not this person. He's right on with the 'alphabet people.'
Uhhhh No
@@chobiden7770 Like they're some heroes or pioneers, LMAO
@TheCommunicationCoach You know straight people do drag right? People who will never change their sex do drag. You probably know people who do secretly.
@@sarahtaylor7677 Wrong, and they don't change their sex or it's not drag.
This dude gave an unexpectedly thoughtful and uplifting interview, which was really nice. A lot of these segments are "Out of touch news anchor tosses thoughtless cliche softballs to up and coming pop star he's never heard of" but this all seemed very engaging and genuine. A rare instance where I enjoyed both sides of this conversation.
I was honestly kind of surprised, since I wouldn't expect a white (presumably straight/cis) male news anchor to take more than a passing interest in Chappell's music. I am so delighted to have been proven wrong. The world is changing
Right! He was phenomenal & was looking for this exact comment
I went to college with Trevor and he’s always been an awesome guy. Very funny.
he said that album title 3 times he was ON IT
Yessss We love an active listener and self educator 😭💗
Oh he is a FAN
He was in a happy place. Happy for them.
omg the restraint
Honey yesss
I have to say I saw this was an ABC news interview and I was worried he might ask something kinda rude but this was such a respectful and sweet interview. I'm really glad she's getting more famous. My girl's gonna take over. Get out there and sing for the queers baby!
I don’t know Chappell personally but she’s definitely so chill and mellow. I don’t feel like she would let people get to her like that but I also agree with you.
@@JohnNOHUD smart observation!
Also, I know how to spell my girls name AutoCorrect be making me look bad
I love how confident she is!
"I feel very prepared." Such a refreshing answer.
Ugh I am so happy for my favorite artist to take off
girl, bye to these comments she’s literally the next pop-pop star
People are literally such wet socks. She’s a goddess
they r a bunch of low lifes
LITERALLY.
hahahahahahahahahahaha she drew the biggest crowd in all of Lollapalooza history (400,000 people) and she's been in the Billboard top 10 for the past three months, mostly in the top 5 (including this month, 3 months in). You're hilarious tho 🤡
@@AntiSocialExtrovert323?? Courtney’s comment is supporting Chappell
Ive go tickets to see her in May and June !! She's amazing, she's gonna hit it BIG
saw her open for declan mckenna in 2016 (i think - mac's bar!) and she was just fantastic. bought her CD for 5 bucks. so happy for her
ok bestie is EVERYWHERE! Obsessed with that for her 😍
i met her last year and shes awesome.
omg i can’t wait to see chappell skyrocket into being a pop icon (more than she already is) 💖
I'm on a Chappell Roan kick today! Just discovered her music and I am THRILLED by her talent. Love her unapologetic style - as I see it, her creativity is in line with what other great artists like Bowie, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and Gaga have done. Love that she gives love and praise to the Queer community, which has been a vital source and inspiration to our popular culture for generations! And, I agree with others here: This was an excellent interview. Nice job, Trevor and ABC!
Great album, and yeah, she's the real deal.
She IS THE MOMENT!! ❤❤❤
I'm so proud of her!! She's gonna be everywhere soon and she deserves it all!
I just discovered her and I'm already obsessed! I'm listening to her album right now and I can guarantee that she has everything it takes to be a phenomenon 😍🥰
The new Lady Gaga ready to conquer the world? She's got my vote!
no one is the new lady gaga, especially not this one
@@cagermanboy boring
@@ジョン-m2pyou sound like the madonna fans who hounded the lady Gaga fans when she started 😂
saw her live and it was a religious experience. lesbian jesus. can't wait to keep watching her career grow!!!
Lesbian jesus 😂😂
She to me reads as this generations Gaga! She's got the voice, the aesthetic but most of all she has the talent and showmanship!
She just oozes magic and charisma
. ❤
Lady Gaga was the first artist who made me feel heard in my sexuality. Chappel roan was the first artist to make me feel heard in my gender
this speaks to me
I love her vocals so much, and I love her vibe and confidence! I’m excited for people to know her 🖤
This will be an iconic interview for Chappel and her fans. I feel it
Just discovered her. LOVE
As someone that watched Chapelle Roan open up for Declan McKenna in 2018 I’m so excited to see her finally getting recognition and becoming a pop star!
This was a great interview-
-the interviewer props to him- this is the way you do it-... chappell you're such an ICON
Loveeee that he has her on prime time and letting all ranges of people know her glory
She’s so real I love her!! Don’t ever change
She is such a slay.
I’m so happy to see her skyrocketing ❤️
She is just ethereal! He is Such a fan and an active listener yesss ❤❤
I saw her in Phoenix when she opened for Olivia Rodrigo and she was phenomenal! I'm a fan now.
She’s already such a star, she is going to be cultural phenomenon
She’s soooo lovely & genuine even under so much pressure
The definition of queen!
oh i love you chappell you deserve the recognition ❤❤❤
I am rooting hard for her it is insane
She’s real and genuine besides wildly talented.
Chappell Roan and Lady Gaga almost have similar tracks. Both were signed to a major label, eventually dropped, and then found massive success. That's why I am into her and her music... fearless, tongue-in-cheek, fun.
Some people are just made to be in the spotlight. She has a way about her that's just so magnetic, on and off the stage.
She's the real deal. Excellent music.
She is SO herself ❤ love you! Thank you for making music, thank you for never giving up because you know BLESS US 😭😭😭
Chappell is literally so amazing I love her music! When she does camp it’s really CAMP
Chappell is THE IT GIRL right now
my favorite is “Casual”!!!
Same!
omg shes on abc news literally so happy for her shes so good
Hellllllll yeahhhhhhhhh I’ve been waiting years for this.
chappell u look incredible sound amazing we LOVE you!!!!!!!!!
She is the best gift to come out of Missouri since Harry S. Truman. Chappell, please encourage the young people in Missouri to register and vote. We need you!
she is going to be an icon of our generation. i adore her so much and i feel lucky to be able to see her rise to fame
what a a queen !!! love heeeeerrrr
❤ yes chappell!!!! you go girl!!!!!
Chappell is the best thing to happen to pop music since Marina came on the scene. I’m excited to watch her grow.
@@AT-qd2cv who’s Marina?😆
@@Debbie-m7f marina and the diamonds, if you haven’t heard her music you’re in for a TREAT
yes we have been starved, I'm so happy to see a pop girlie with a huge diva belt combined w beautiful soprano, who puts on a REAL show/is not afraid to wear her heart on her sleeve
I’ve loved her for months!!
live laugh love chappell roan

Incredible interviewer

She’s incredibly talented ❤ great voice
🎉im so excited to see her on mainstream news!! we love you chappel roan!!!!!!
She’s ready ❤❤
I love her so much. 🩵
Yes! the next lady gaga for sure. I saw her in Berkeley, CA on her last tour and it was an incredible show
This young lady has just begun!!! She is fabulous!!! I can't wait to her skyrocket!!
I like look. I can tell she’s a lot of fun to talk to.
The little Midwestern queer boy of my past would have died to have someone like Chappel in the zeitgeist like she is now. Thank you, Queen.
She is incredible, I just found out about her and I’m absolutely in love 😻
why am i getting emotional watching this
“I can’t imagine playing in front of 20,000 fans”
5 months later she holds the record for largest Lollapalooza crowd at 110,000……..
Hope she gets everything she deserves!
Such a talented artist. I
Love love love Good Luck, Babe!
He’s such a stan
A literal superstar casually gracing ABC news!
I agree with her. I’m originally from the rural Midwest and moving out to the East Coast Megalopolis has made me realize that my Midwestern values have made me more human, more friendly, and more considerate than my neighbors and I’m proud of that.
Jinx Monsoon looks gorgeous as always
Lol the resemblance is there. It’s drag hunny haha
You did it babe
She always looks so good
I am so glad I’m ahead of this trend
this interviewer was phenomenal.
Yessss❤❤❤
Fabulous!!
You got guts grrrl!! Keep it up!!
This grandma loves you
she’s so cute
@@claracedar 😂
The editing on this is crazy
She's gonna be big.
This reminds me of the phenomenon of Tiffany at the shopping malls in the 80s, just on a much bigger scale. Now it's arenas!
