Chappell Roan Bravely Performs Despite Show Cancellations and Backlash
H-O-T-T-O-G-O, Chappell Roan just stole the show.
The “Hot To Go!” singer made her award show debut at the 2024 MTV VMAs, hitting the stage at UBS Arena in New York Sept. 11 to perform her hit “Good Luck, Babe!”
Featuring a medieval-inspired dance number, the song—off Chappell’s 2023 debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess—got many celeb attendees dancing along. (To see all the stars on the red carpet, click here.)
Chappell began the performance wearing a knight in shining armor outfit, wielding a flaming crossbow before launching into “Good Luck, Babe!” as fire rained around her.
Chappell (real name Kayleigh Rose Amstutz) is nominated for Best New Artist at the ceremony, facing off against nominees Benson Boone, Gracie Abrams, Tyla, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims. In addition, she is up for the Performance of the Year award alongside Benson, Teddy, GloRilla, Coco Jones, Victoria Monet, Jessie Murph, Laufey, Le SSerafim and The Warning.
