Chappell Roan Challenges Writer Who Slammed Her Grammys Speech to Match $25,000 Donation for Struggling Musicians
Chappell Roan challenged the writer who criticized her Grammy Awards speech about struggling musicians to match her $25,000 donation to support them.
The controversy continued over a Hollywood Reporter op-ed regarding Chappell Roan ’s Grammy night speech in which she called for record labels to support artists with “a livable wage and health care”: Early Friday, the singer challenged the writer of the article to match her $25,000 donation to an unnamed fund for “struggling” artists who have lost their record deals. “Wanna match me $25k to donate to struggling dropped artists?,” she wrote on her Instagram story, tagging the writer.
