Chappell Roan, the 26-year-old singer of “Red Wine Supernova,” has clarified her political stance in a new TikTok video, stating that she will not be voting for former President Donald Trump. Roan’s comments come after previous statements about her frustration with the government were reportedly taken out of context. In the video, Roan explains her perspective on the upcoming election and the importance of critical thinking. “I have encouraged people to use critical thinking skills, learn about what they’re voting for, and ask questions,” she said.
Roan emphasized the nuance in her statements, stressing the importance of questioning authority and media sources. “There is nuance in what I say in interviews, and I think it’s important that people use critical thinking,” she explained. “It’s important for me to question authority and question world leaders, and question myself, question my algorithm.”
In the video, Roan reiterated that her comments are genuine and not merely for appearances. “If you come to my shows, if you read my full interviews, you know that this is not lip service, this is not virtue signaling,” she added. Although Roan stopped short of endorsing a specific candidate, she confirmed, “No, I’m not voting for Trump. And yes, I will always question those in power and stand up for what’s right.”
Roan’s video was posted in response to confusion surrounding her political views, ensuring that fans understand her position as she approaches her third election as a voter
