Chappell Roan claps back at rude photographer on VMAs red carpet: Watch

Chappell Roan doesn’t hold back when it comes to her boundaries.

While walking the 2024 MTV VMAs on Wednesday, September 11, the Good Luck Babe singer called out a photographer who yelled "shut the f*** up" on the step-and-repeat.

In a video shared by fans on X (formerly Twitter), the 26-year-old pop star didn’t hesitate to fire back. "You shut the f*** up," Roan snapped, pointing directly at the heckler. After stepping away to have her outfit adjusted, she delivered one final warning: "Don't. Not me, b***h!"

Roan’s quick comeback was met with cheers from other attendees, with one person even shouting, "You tell 'em, girl!"

Further down the carpet, the Hot 2 Go hitmaker spoke to Entertainment Tonight about the incident, admitting the red carpet can be intimidating.

"This is quite overwhelming and quite scary," she said. "For someone who gets a lot of anxiety around people yelling at you, the carpet is horrifying. And I yelled back! You don’t get to yell at me like that,” Roan explained.

Later that evening, Roan went on to win her first VMA for Best New Artist.
