Chappell Roan fans mistake the singer for Lady Gaga as she shocks Tonight Show viewers with her iconic outfit and performance

Fans of CHAPPELL Roan have compared the singer to Lady Gaga as she shocked Tonight Show viewers with an iconic outfit and performance.

On Thursday, the artist from “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess” sang her hit single “Good Luck, Babe!” on the “Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon.

A clip of the singer’s performance was posted on the late-night show’s official Instagram page.

On stage, 26-year-old Chappell, wearing an all-white ensemble with feathers, belted out the lines, “You know I hate to say it, but I told you so.”

A huge feather headdress gave the Red Wine Supernova singer, whose face was made up of white glitter makeup and dark red lipstick, an exotic, bird-like look.

Her figure-hugging, tutu-like dress rounded off the bird look.

Chappell’s accessories, including her feather-covered eyelashes and claw-like fingernails, emphasized the swan concept.

In the comments section of the post, one fan wrote, “WOW I heard this on the radio today and was like, ‘Damn I wonder if it’s hard for her to hit that note live.’ NOPE IT WAS SO EASY, GO FOR IT QUEEN.”

“Chappell’s criticism is neither heard nor acknowledged,” commented another.

“Chappell Roan is literally like Kate Bush, Cyndi Lauper and David Bowie having a child and I love that about her,” claimed a third.

Others compared the rising star to established singer and actress Lady Gaga (38) and one wrote: “The next Gaga.”

“Lady Gaga entered a code,” noted a second.

A STAR IN THE MAKING

Chappell has amassed millions of monthly Spotify listeners and thousands of followers on social media.

The rising pop star and LGBTQ+ activist has started to make a big name for himself in the entertainment industry.

Chappell Roan was born Kayleigh Rose Amstutz on February 19, 1998 in Willard, Missouri.

The pop singer and songwriter has built a large fan base with 22.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

She has also gained a large following on social media: on Instagram she has over 2.1 million followers, on her TikTok account @chappellroan has over 1.7 million followers, and on YouTube @chappellroan has 361,000 subscribers.

According to BBC News, Chappell’s “hilarious debut album, The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess,” tells the “story of a small-town girl who comes out as gay and tries to find her way in the world.”

The singer grew up “in the conservative town of Willard, Missouri, where she went to church three times a week and learned that being gay was a sin.”

After signing with Atlantic Records, she moved to Los Angeles, California at the age of 17, which “opened her eyes.”

The outlet describes Chappell as “the alter ego of the much quieter and more modest Kayleigh Amstuzt.”

She has described Chappell Roan as a “larger-than-life drag queen version” of herself.

CHART TOPPER

According to Genius, Roan’s most popular song is “Good Luck, Babe!”

“I needed to write a song about a common situation in queer relationships—where someone is struggling to come to terms with themselves,” Chappell wrote in press materials about the single, according to Pitchfork.

“This song is about wishing well to someone who is hiding their true feelings.”

According to her Spotify page, Chappell’s most popular songs include “Good Luck,” “Babe!”, “Red Wine Supernova,” “HOT TO GO!”, “Casual,” and “My Kink Is Karma.”

Her debut studio album, “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess,” was released on September 22, 2023.

Opening act

Chappell performed as an opening act during part of Olivia Rodrigo’s GUTS World Tour, beginning with the debut show on February 23, 2024, in Palm Springs, California.

As Billboard reported, Chappell received a kiss on the cheek from Rodrigo after her final opening performance of the tour on April 2, 2024.

According to the release, Chappell “warmed up audiences across the U.S. and Canada” while performing pieces from “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.”

She “will now pass the baton to The Breeders, who will alternate with Remi Wolf and Pinkpantheress as openers on the next tour.”

The GUTS World Tour ends on August 17, 2024 in Inglewood, California.
