"The actions I took were not on behalf of Chappell Roan, her personal security team, her management, or any other individuals."
"4.2% of users contributing to the Chappell conversation at this time were 'non-typical' - i.e. were very likely to be bots."
"The incident prompted a barrage of posts questioning her character in the wake of the incident might be a little...disproportionate."
Chappell Roan was criticized after a Brazilian soccer star's family reported an aggressive security guard incident involving their daughter. The singer clarified that the guard was not associated with her.

The backlash may be linked to Roan's controversial public persona, including her advocacy for Palestine and her sexuality, suggesting that the criticism could be disproportionate.
