Mariah Carey Comments on Chappell Roan’s Struggle With Fame: ‘I Have Been Through My Share of Dramas’


Mariah Carey was asked to give advice to Chappell Roan, who canceled shows while grappling with sudden fame.

Cue “Anytime You Need a Friend.” Mariah Carey was asked to give advice to younger artists like Chappell Roan, the “Good Luck, Babe!” singer who’s been grappling with the negative side of a sudden ascent into celebrity. Roan has been all over newsfeeds after drawing criticism for not endorsing a candidate in the 2024 election, and then canceling two festival performances in order to prioritize her health while things “have gotten overwhelming”; she also was the subject of the most talked-about SNL sketch last weekend. Carey didn’t address Roan specifically, but was kind enough to give general guidance to the new generation of pop stars in her response.
