Andrew Garfield Praises Chappell Roan’s ‘Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess’ Album as “Genius”

by

As a music enthusiast and admirer of authenticity, I find myself deeply moved by Chappell Roan’s journey and the strength she exudes. Her ability to navigate the tumultuous world of stardom while maintaining her integrity is truly inspiring. It’s refreshing to see someone standing up for themselves and setting boundaries, especially in an industry notorious for its exploitative nature.

Chappell Roan can add Andrew Garfield to her ever-growing list of fans.

The Oscar-nominated actor discussed his musical preferences with MTV U.K., joining Florence Pugh due to their film, “We Live in Time.” When Pugh was queried about Garfield’s preferred musician or one he might secretly listen to, she quickly responded, “Roan,” was her answer.

He mentioned that the topic had been under discussion for the past 48 hours, then pointed out her extensive repertoire of songs he holds dear. “Red Wine Supernova,” he confessed, was driving him crazy. “Good Luck, Babe!” and “Pink Pony Club” were also among his favorites, as was “Hot to Go.

He mentioned that “After Midnight” and “Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl” are additional tunes he cherishes from the album “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess“.

Frankly,” Garfield said, “I’ve been listening to that entire album from start to finish each morning while working out at the gym. I think it’s brilliant. It’s been such a long time since anything like this has emerged.

Prior to delving into discussing the movie, the actor from Spider-Man paused for a brief moment to express admiration for how Roan has been setting boundaries with others.

As a gamer, I’ve got to say, her approach to creating barriers in the virtual world truly resonates. It’ll inspire many of us out here. Man, we delved pretty deep into Chappell Roan.

Garfield seemed to be alluding to the heartfelt appeal made by the Grammy-nominated artist, asking her followers to cease the “exploitative actions” she’s encountered ever since her album became popular and she rose to fame.

For the last decade, she’s been tirelessly working on her project without a break, and now finds herself at a point where she needs to establish boundaries. She aspires to be an artist for a lifetime, but has unfortunately encountered too many unwanted physical and social encounters that she feels compelled to address. It’s important for everyone to understand: women do not owe anyone anything. She chose her career path because of her passion for music, art, and nurturing her inner child, and this choice should never be exploited or disrespected. She firmly stands against any form of harassment and does not consider it an acceptable part of her chosen profession.

At the moment, she expressed, “I’m referring to predatory actions that have come to be accepted as ‘fan behavior’, largely due to how women in the limelight have been treated historically. Remember, it’s important not to make sweeping assumptions about someone’s life, character, or personal space based on your familiarity with them or their online presence.
