No 1 at last Chappell Roan's rise to camp pop stardom
The Guardian
|August 10, 2024
The album that made its debut at the UK No 1 spot yesterday is titled The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess - though for its creator, the breakthrough pop star Chappell Roan, the past year has been nothing but rise.
When the Missouri-born 26-yearold released her debut album last September, it marked the beginning of a slow-burning second act in pop. In her late teens, she was signed as a downbeat songwriter by Atlantic and subsequently dropped. The experience prompted her to cultivate an outre persona that allowed the queer musician born Kayleigh Amstutz to express everything she had once repressed, growing up in a Christian community. She then hustled her way - via stints back home working in a drive-thru doughnut shop - to a deal with Island Records.
