In an interview for Interview magazine, Chappell Roan opened up about the emotional toll of criticism directed at her as a person, rather than her art. Despite presenting a strong facade, she admitted to feeling hurt and crying over hateful comments, particularly when the attacks were personal. Roan acknowledged the struggle of balancing her artistic identity with her personal life, conveying that while she can dismiss artistic criticism, personal insults hit harder, making her question her own worth.
"I didn't, until people started hating me for me and not for my art. When it's not about my art anymore, it's like, 'They hate me because I'm Kayleigh, not because they hate the songs that I make.' That's when it changed."
"I didn't realize I'd care so much. When it comes to my art, I'm like, 'B*tch, you can think whatever you want. You are allowed to hate it with all your guts.' But when it comes to me and my personality, it's like, 'Damn. Am I the most insufferable b*tch of our generation?'"
"It makes [her] cry. I don't know if it will ever feel okay to hear someone say something really hateful about me."
