Chappell Roan delivered her debut performance at the MTV VMAs last night (September 11) – you can watch it below.
This year’s ceremony took place at the UBS Arena in New York, and was hosted by Megan Thee Stallion
Roan took home one of the biggest prizes of the evening, winning Best New Artist. She was nominated in four categories overall. Check out the full winners list here.
During the show, the former NME Cover star showcased her hit 2024 single ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ – which earned a nod in the Song Of The Summer list.
The theatrical performance began with Roan walking through the gates of a medieval castle. Donning knight’s armour, the singer turned back and fired a burning arrow from a crossbow.
She then played the upbeat ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ in front of the blazing set as a group of knights brandished swords while they danced around her. Tune in here:
Elsewhere at the MTV VMAs, Roan hit back at a photographer who seemingly told her to “shut the fuck up” on the red carpet.
Ahead of the ceremony, the rising artist faced some criticism after she confirmed that she would be cancelling two European shows due to “scheduling conflicts”. She later posted images of herself in rehearsals for the VMAs.
The singer recently shared an update on her “super weird” upcoming second album, which will follow last year’s ‘The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess’. So far, she has around five or six songs ready for her project.
“We have a country song. We have a dancy song. We have one that’s really Eighties, and we have one that’s acoustic, and we have one that’s really organic, live-band, Seventies vibe. It’s super weird,” she told Rolling Stone.
Roan is scheduled to play a run of sold-out UK and Ireland shows this month, kicking off in Manchester tomorrow night (September 13).
