Will Chappell Roan make her Fandoms of the Year debut in 2024?
If there's one thing we all know, it's that FanSided is for the fans and by the fans. That's why it's so exciting to gear up for the release of the Fandoms of the Year list.
Last year was a huge year as there were so many amazing celebrities, musicians, sports teams, and much more who made the cut. Looking back at last year, there was one musician who was on the cusp of breaking out which was Chappell Roan.
2024 has felt like the year for Chappell Roan as she's performed at tons of different shows, joined some of her famous friends on stage, and saw rapid success the likes of which we haven't seen in years. Regardless of how you feel about the artist, there is no denying her impact on 2024.
No matter how you feel about Chappell Roan and her music, there is no denying her music, style, and outspokenness have ruled 2024. Will it be enough to earn her a spot on the Fandoms of the Years list for 2024, though?
Is Chappell Roan guaranteed a Fandoms of the Year spot?
Looking at last year's list, there were some heavy hitters in the music category including Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Peso Pluma. While some are likely to appear again, it's clear Chappell Roan has changed the game when it comes to being a pop star and we have the examples to prove it.
Let's begin with the most obvious reason which is Chappell herself. If there's one star who is unapologetically herself, it's Chappell Roan. She isn't afraid to say what no one else wants to say and won't make any apologies about it. She's spoken about her boundaries when it comes to the press, the fans, and anyone else who dares to tread over her. It's honestly such a refreshing attitude to have and something people don't exactly know how to handle.
Regardless, the other thing people are loving is obviously Chappell's music. Her debut album: The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess captured hearts. Whether it was due to her striking image on the cover, the incredibly personal lyrics, or accompanying music videos, everyone was talking about the songs. The songs were even more beloved after her performance on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert.
Speaking of her Tiny Desk Concert, we have to talk about Chappell Roan's style. Whether you notice her dramatic makeup, her unique outfits, or her gorgeous hair, she isn't afraid to wear what she wants when she wants. Her looks and style have been a huge talking point and I think we all have our favorite Chappell Roan look.
Regardless of how you feel about this Midwest Princess, her impact on 2024 was undeniable and it would be highly shocking to not see her make this year's Fandoms of the Year list. While she's unlikely to beat Taylor Swift, her entry will be something all of us see coming in the best way.
