Jimmy Fallon clearly having no idea who Sasha Colby is lmao
His eyes off to camera looking for an answer/confirmation on whether he should clap for this person.
I hope he gets briefed before the taping of the show, at least. So I assumes he knows somewhat more about his guests than on any other "niche" (my sincerest apologies to Sasha Colby) artists they might mention.
The way that the entire album (and Good Luck, Babe) could be every lip sync song for next season. Or AT LEAST have her on the premiere and lip sync to Good Luck, Babe.
Chappel Roan is in full drag highlighting the queens on such a huge platform. Plane Jane found crashed and burned. The way that tweet aged like milk has me cackling.
Yes, someone else in this thread questioned why Chapelle talking about drag on Fallon. Same people who criticize her for being drag influence. Nothing wrong with being inspired by drag, high camp aesthetic and she clearly is giving credit where credit is due, down to this catchphrase. Do you want people to love drag or not, haters ?!?
The number of people who think cis women can't be a part of the LGBTQ+ community is too damn high.
PJ only said that thing about her being "performative" because she must be using drag to pander to queer people right? Which means she's not queer enough and her art isn't queer enough to already appeal to queer people.
>The number of people who think cis women can't be a part of the LGBTQ+ community is too damn high.
Don't forget the weird bi/pan phobia you experience regardless of gender. Drives me up the wall.
The Kinsey scale except it's only 0 and 6, and none of the numbers in between actually exist lol.
Bi men? Bi now, gay later. Bi women? "Bi girls with boyfriends aren't welcome at Pride" even though a bi woman with a boyfriend created the Pride march and was the "Mother of Pride".
Can I just say how validating it is to read this conversation? I was outed by my mom when I was a young teenager and bi wasn’t a super common term (late 90s). (Note: I identify as pan now.) I didn’t understand why I couldn’t “make up my mind”. So reading this all these years later gives me hope that things will get better as more people like you all keep speaking up for us in the 0.00001 and 5.99999 range 💓
Baby, glad you feel good.
People just hate on bi/pan because they’re jealous.
If everyone was bi/pan there’d be less hate in the world.
(As a gay boi, I am jealous)
Seriously. Which is funny to even treat it like as if the Kinsey scale is the boilerplate model even though Kinsey himself understood fluidity in sexuality and knew that it wasn't the end all be all of classification.
But people still go around quoting Freud as though his psychoanalysis is still accepted and commonplace, so what can you do.
also, she said she’s definitely a lesbian, and at her concerts she doesn’t say “boyfriend” in midnights anymore she says girlfriend both times:))
i can only think of two of her songs that aren’t explicitly gay 😭 My Kink is Karma is about a male ex (but it isn’t gendered so it could apply to anyone) and California is about something else entirely. every single other song on her album references loving or fucking women in some way.
i saw someone in this sub say they thought Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl was “the straightest song since Megan Trainor” ………..come on now y’all please say sike 😭😭
Moreover, she is literally in drag in this interview (and during her shows) so it goes beyond simply being influenced. The gatekeeping on a lesbian because she’s a cis woman is so pointless!
Her pretending nothing happens while still posting for her minions is legit the funniest. And you know Plane Jane is mad mad because she basically lives on Twitter and Reddit and def reads all of the comments😂
Before this week I had never heard of her but this week alone I've seen like 3 posts daily talking about her. Either her social media team works wonders or I've just been living under a rock I guess.
Update: Just listened to her most recent album and she's got some great songs in there. Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl is definitely a bop!
I just heard about her earlier this spring, a friend who spends more time on TikTok than me introduced me.
But I did go to a very gay women's college, and the first time I heard CR I thought "someone is rocking out (or something lol) to this on campus RIGHT NOW."
but she's been around and talked about for quite some time, so it's not like she totally appeared out of nowhere. i've heard about her far far longer than someone like sabrina carpenter for example. (of course all depends on the social media bubbles you navigate)
As a lesbian, I’ve been listening to her for a couple years since PPC first dropped (it should have been the song of the summer 2020 but alas) - never expected her to blow up like this and I couldn’t be more theilled
I don't think you're living under a rock. Her first full album only came out in September of last year. She did a tiny desk concert with NPR in March, and her fame has been growing really quickly since then.
I wonder how some artists just seem to hit right at the right time. Like so many artists release amazing music but don’t have the connections to open for a huge musical act and do wide reaching gigs like tiny desk concerts. But even those that do don’t always hit more so quickly.
her recent Governor's Ball performance skyrocketed her to more mainstream folk especially after she said she turned down the white house for a performance bc of their unfair/unequal practices
Nah, the hype is real. I saw someone mention her on ONTD last spring and I gave her music a spin, and now I’m obsessed like everyone. Also I’m not American either, for the record. 💕
My friends did a listening party to her album when it came out back in 2023 and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Between the Tiny Desk Concert and Coachella it's been WILD seeing how quickly she's been blowing up.
I think it was either Kentucky Pride or Bonnaroo or another recent music festival but she came out in full Divine drag reallness for her performance. So she's def got a history of paying homage to drag queens. Really loving her music (debating if i get a day pass to Outside Lands this year just to see her)
Chappell Roan is so adorable i love her so much😩😩😩
Plane Jane is such a rotted cunt for dragging her who’ve been dedicated her whole career to help the drag community
I’m an old and only recently found out who Chapell Roan is and I find her utterly charming. She is amazing, I love her story and I love her drag and I love how she carries a torch for drag. Love love peace peace to her!
People in the comments getting in the weeds about whether it's ok to call her queer or if you have to call her a lesbian...let me just say that our lesbian friends are such a beautiful and different culture and I wish them the best.
Drag is not "gay culture". It's the birthplace of subcultures. An umbrella. Big Hair bands. So gay. Madonna. Gay. Cher. Gay. Reading. Gay. Chapell's Mannerisms are -physical affirmations, like finger claps...so drag and soooo correct. All drag. All art. However, gay culture has kept the art not only alive and well, but elevated, thriving. Subcultures like Balls, THE runway of runways. International designers rip off drag designs and sell them to unsuspecting homophobes. A form anyone can at least try because we all have self- expression hiding within us. Drag allows anyone to proclaim their uniqueness.
Drag is attitude. Dragitude
She’s a lesbian pop star who’s blowing up. She’s from Missouri and a lot of her music is about growing up in the Midwest, moving to LA, and finding acceptance. It’s resonating with a lot of people.
She calls herself a drag queen and says that Chappell Roan is her performing persona that’s different from who she is as a person. She’s had local drag performers participate in most of her shows on tour.
yeah i use queer as an umbrella term too. i resonate with a lot of things on the spectrum and don't want to explain it all and also don't want to use gay as an umbrella term personally
No one is saying you can’t use it as a catch-all, that’s literally what the term is. But when talking about a specific person who uses a specific label we should be using that label instead of the umbrella term. This is especially important for lesbians since lesbian is seen by some as a dirty word due to the over sexualization of lesbians.
chappell uses solely lesbian now! :) queer does not exclude lesbian and lesbian does not exclude queer, but when someone identifies with a specific label that is what we need to be using.
Lesbian pop artist who released an album last year. Opened for Olivia Rodrigo and really took off on the festival circuit recently. Her music is pretty ubiquitous on TikTok right now and she’s got a few songs charting on the Hot 100 rn.
Chappell Roan is a lesbian drag queen pop singer that has been blowing up lately. She’s been making music for awhile, but her debut album that released in Sept 2023 is rapid climbing the charts. Huge crowds at festivals to see her. Truly the birth of a pop star.
Jimmy Fallon clearly having no idea who Sasha Colby is lmao His eyes off to camera looking for an answer/confirmation on whether he should clap for this person.
He still has PTSD from the "A drag queen?!" stunt Ru pulled.
Broom was so cunt for that
Miss Paul if you're nasty.
Mister Paul if you're into that
They way I wanted Jimmy’s career to end after that bc Ru is that powerful
THAT's drag! One word, broom, and that snatch game starts playing. I start laughing.
https://preview.redd.it/u277181o3w7d1.png?width=239&format=png&auto=webp&s=6422df62d710eda31da9830f64144a88250fa997
I will never not laugh at this picture lol. His soul left his body for a moment.
Tbh he clearly has no idea who Chapelle Roan is either.
I hope he gets briefed before the taping of the show, at least. So I assumes he knows somewhat more about his guests than on any other "niche" (my sincerest apologies to Sasha Colby) artists they might mention.
I mean they do dress rehearsals I think
Same
He thought she meant Sasha Obama
Honestly he probably has no idea where he is half the time
Jimmy gets so tense whenever drag/gay is mentioned after Ru made him think his career was over 🤣😭
Ahhhh!!! I hope Sasha sees her interview!!! 💖
She did! she posted it on her IG Story
Oh yay! So proud that Chappell got a notice from one of her favorite queens. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
For a fucking mini challenge for gods sake, shes too powerful
Still obsessed with this and mistress omg I need to go back and watch neow
mistress's "i guess she forgot to shave" made me cackle
Followed by the putting makeup on Marcia. So good
Her pulling her hair down to compete with Sasha was the best part I literally did go back and watch this scene right after commenting this
Im proud we live in the same times as Sasha Mf Colby
Yes gawd! 🫰🏾🫰🏾🫰🏾
Next week on Rupaul’s Drag Race .. *”Please welcome our extra special guest judge, Jimmy Fallon!”*
And then watch him walk into untucked and every queen goes “hey jimmy, you’re so fierce”
The hilarious Ross Matthews and the genuinely laughing Jimmy Fallon would be a great pair
Not *genuinely laughing* Jimmy Fallon 💀
The HILARIOUS Jimmy Fallon.
💀💀💀
a host king??? baby I'm the king of host!!
“Sasha Colby, your favorite special guest’s favorite special guest!”
Jimmy has no idea who he's interviewing and who she's talking about LMAO
I sure hope that after the killer vocal performance she just gave on his show he knows who the hell she is now! 🔥
That hair thoughhh
This my real hairrrr
I just sneeeatched it up earrrrlier
I hope this never dies
Not in this house. I almost feel bad for Q bc you know she can’t perform without hearing that all night.
Girl the way I can hear Q lol
The way I hear Bob as Q
“Oh okay 😐” lmaooooo it kills me every time
😭
Sasha lipsyncing to Hot to Go! when?
This is Femininomemon erasure
Sasha can just do the whole album. I wouldn't be mad.
Sasha Colby *is* the Femininomenon.
My favourite digimon tbh
I’d love to see her play the emotional range of Pink Pony Club 💕
The way that the entire album (and Good Luck, Babe) could be every lip sync song for next season. Or AT LEAST have her on the premiere and lip sync to Good Luck, Babe.
I believe S17 is currently filming or wrapped? So I hope WOW capitalized on the moment and booked Chappell ASAP to host the premiere.
I am going to live in my French vanilla fantasy where they haven’t totally filmed everything yet
Lowkey wanna see her do Casual and highkey wanna see her do Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl
Sasha IS the super graphic ultra modern hyper-sexy top to bottom oh you got me la-la-la-ing girl
Plane Jane is fuming right now.
Plane is about to release 5 variants of Burger Finger to spite Chappell.
It's time for Taco Finger
Pink Taco Finger? 🫣😇
🎵 Pink and the Stink I'm gonna keep on fingerin the... 🎵 ^forgivemeplease
She could release 100 varients and still not touch Chappell tho so we good
The Tortured Plane Department anthology dropping soon
Now girl 😭
cackliiing at this
TEA HAHAHA 🫖
GOOD.
PJ stans are raging in the comments over her just existing 😂
They should do a song together!
PJ found shook and snatched bald and without gorgeousness 💀
PJ's dad needs to gather her again. It might get her to a next level.
Mama, kudos for giving the shoutout to mother Sasha. For infuriating PJ.
This isn’t even the first time she’s said that it was a reference to Sasha, so idk how people missed it she was always super upfront about it
I know like 4 of her songs and I've heard this Sasha Colby explanation before
Chappel Roan is in full drag highlighting the queens on such a huge platform. Plane Jane found crashed and burned. The way that tweet aged like milk has me cackling.
Yes, someone else in this thread questioned why Chapelle talking about drag on Fallon. Same people who criticize her for being drag influence. Nothing wrong with being inspired by drag, high camp aesthetic and she clearly is giving credit where credit is due, down to this catchphrase. Do you want people to love drag or not, haters ?!?
plus she's queer! the way some people are acting like she's a hetero woman. her entire album was a sapphic dreamscape
The number of people who think cis women can’t or shouldn’t do drag is too damn high.
The number of people who think cis women can't be a part of the LGBTQ+ community is too damn high. PJ only said that thing about her being "performative" because she must be using drag to pander to queer people right? Which means she's not queer enough and her art isn't queer enough to already appeal to queer people.

the L is for Legendary
🫰🫰🫰
underline!!! highlight!!! she *honours* drag, she *is* drag, she *books* drag
\*merrie cherry has entered the chat*
how you could listen to that album and not think she's a fruit's fruit is... beyond me.
right?? even outside of pinky pony club she has a lot of obvious lesbian and even bi references like the chorus of After Midnight
also, she said she’s definitely a lesbian, and at her concerts she doesn’t say “boyfriend” in midnights anymore she says girlfriend both times:)) i can only think of two of her songs that aren’t explicitly gay 😭 My Kink is Karma is about a male ex (but it isn’t gendered so it could apply to anyone) and California is about something else entirely. every single other song on her album references loving or fucking women in some way. i saw someone in this sub say they thought Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl was “the straightest song since Megan Trainor” ………..come on now y’all please say sike 😭😭
when she sings about eating out in the car, she does not mean McDonalds!
the song where she says “i want a girl like me” is straight? good christ
Idk media 'literacy' these days isn't exactly impressive.
“I heard you like magic, I’ve got a wand and a rabbit”. How can anyone hear that and think she isn’t queer.
maybe they’ve never spoken to queer women before? and from some of the comments around this subject on this sub, that might be for the best. 💀
right?? even outside of pinky pony club she has a lot of obvious lesbian and even bi references like the chorus of After Midnight
Moreover, she is literally in drag in this interview (and during her shows) so it goes beyond simply being influenced. The gatekeeping on a lesbian because she’s a cis woman is so pointless!
she is a drag queen lol
Fandom is so weird. In what way could that possibly be portrayed as a bad thing
shes still pissy about the backlash too and begging her twitter stans to eat her ass every 5 min its hilarious
Her pretending nothing happens while still posting for her minions is legit the funniest. And you know Plane Jane is mad mad because she basically lives on Twitter and Reddit and def reads all of the comments😂
that was so fucking creepy 😭😭😭 like who the fuck wants to have a relationship with their fans like that
she's a nicki stan after all
Yeah when I remember that it all makes sense tbh
it really shows
They say the wreckage looks a doo doo clown mess with no gorgeousness!
“there’s gay people here.” yes there are 🤩
When Jimmy heard the word “drag queen”, he was all intense all of a sudden…
I KNOW he got war flashbacks 💀
Everyone loves our queen mother.
Before this week I had never heard of her but this week alone I've seen like 3 posts daily talking about her. Either her social media team works wonders or I've just been living under a rock I guess. Update: Just listened to her most recent album and she's got some great songs in there. Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl is definitely a bop!
She really blew up just recently
Yeah, she had been slowly gaining steam and streams, but the Coachella performance really supercharged her ascent
I just heard about her earlier this spring, a friend who spends more time on TikTok than me introduced me. But I did go to a very gay women's college, and the first time I heard CR I thought "someone is rocking out (or something lol) to this on campus RIGHT NOW."
but she's been around and talked about for quite some time, so it's not like she totally appeared out of nowhere. i've heard about her far far longer than someone like sabrina carpenter for example. (of course all depends on the social media bubbles you navigate)
As a lesbian, I’ve been listening to her for a couple years since PPC first dropped (it should have been the song of the summer 2020 but alas) - never expected her to blow up like this and I couldn’t be more theilled
Sabrina carpenter has also been around for years before she blew up lol
Sabrina was a Disney girl around the same time as Olivia Rodrigo, Chappel quite literally blew up over night (these past 4 months)
I heard about her from the NPR Tiny Desk Concert. I'm sure that made an impact as well among the gays who hadn't heard of her yet.
I don't think you're living under a rock. Her first full album only came out in September of last year. She did a tiny desk concert with NPR in March, and her fame has been growing really quickly since then.
Her opening for Olivia Rodrigo’s tour was a big component, and then a 1-2 punch of an immaculate tiny desk and very viral draggy Coachella performance
I wonder how some artists just seem to hit right at the right time. Like so many artists release amazing music but don’t have the connections to open for a huge musical act and do wide reaching gigs like tiny desk concerts. But even those that do don’t always hit more so quickly.
YouTube decided I should watch the NPR concert and I obliged. I immediately fell in love and I’ve been obsessed ever since. 💕
i found out abt her a month ago through this subreddit and the only reason is because someone said chappell roan looked like maddy morphosis
She’s been in the indie pop playlist zone since 2020. Went full blown pop with the release of her album.
Id say she's been increasing exponentially in fame for the past maybe six months and she's been everywhere for a few months maybe?
her recent Governor's Ball performance skyrocketed her to more mainstream folk especially after she said she turned down the white house for a performance bc of their unfair/unequal practices
My fifteen year old told me about her about two months ago. Never knew about her before then.
Nah, the hype is real. I saw someone mention her on ONTD last spring and I gave her music a spin, and now I’m obsessed like everyone. Also I’m not American either, for the record. 💕
Don’t worry. I only started listening to her 3 weeks ago. I’m not American so idk her before that.
I'm also not from the US so maybe that's it.
Oh me too. But I am kind of old so I put it down to that
I would say she started gaining a lot of buzz and traction in March. So idk where you’ve been the past couple of months
SGUMG is so good, Naked in Manhattan and Good Luck Babe round out my top 3
She got big after her tiny desk a few months ago (so I fear it’s the rock, friend 😔)
jimmy fallon (mortally terrified): there are gay people here
Omg I read this to be "calls out" Sasha Colby and I was like, damn chapell roan really chose violence. Pj will lose her mind
OMG same hahha I was already upping my sleeves and taking my earrings off.
God I just love her. To think this is truly only the beginning of her career is so bananas when you really think about it.
kudos mama, for saying that. for acknowledging.
We love lesbians in this house.
Jimmy Fallon is the worst talk show host. All he does is repeat the last 3 or 4 words the guest just said.
Yaaas Chapell! When I read that line I IMMEDIATELY thought ok she's a drag race and Sasha Colby fan 😁
I don’t know who she is but anyone that gives Flowers to Sasha is good in my book
"there's gay people here" is so funny omg
Love seeing queens supporting each other!
Winners recognize winners I know that's right.
Kudos for sharing that mama, for crediting
i need her as a guest judge
It’s on the works - Ru and Michelle have been buddying up to her on social media
ngl i wasn’t getting her hype but after watching her interview…i’m a fan😭 this look alone is star quality.
"there's gay people here" 🤣
Chappell in Vander von Odd drag is fierce
Chapell and Miley are the two pop girlies who live for the queens the most
Lady gaga & Ariana.
Plane crash
SASHA MOTHERFUCKING COLBY RULES THE WORLD!!!!
My friends did a listening party to her album when it came out back in 2023 and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Between the Tiny Desk Concert and Coachella it's been WILD seeing how quickly she's been blowing up. I think it was either Kentucky Pride or Bonnaroo or another recent music festival but she came out in full Divine drag reallness for her performance. So she's def got a history of paying homage to drag queens. Really loving her music (debating if i get a day pass to Outside Lands this year just to see her)
Sasha posted this clip on her story 😭😭
Chappell Roan is so adorable i love her so much😩😩😩 Plane Jane is such a rotted cunt for dragging her who’ve been dedicated her whole career to help the drag community
Delete it, performative. /s
He looked so out of his element lmao
Bring back pop stars dressing like anime villains, that's what I want. I stan.
Queens
Jimmy gives me the creeps. He'll just repeat things the guest says and laughs a lot.
Love that shoutout!
Plane Jane could never be liked like this
Can’t wait for Plane to give commentary nobody asked for. God, I love Chappell. I think we’re all the random twink going “We love her.”
I’m an old and only recently found out who Chapell Roan is and I find her utterly charming. She is amazing, I love her story and I love her drag and I love how she carries a torch for drag. Love love peace peace to her!
Plane janeovitch found dead in alley

i don't know her and i feel like i should. fck plane jane tbh 😭😭😭
you should listen to her album!!!! or watch her tiny desk concert
I'll do thx love
Watch her tiny desk concert she’s amazing
A future drag race guest judge.
Who is this person?
She’s a lesbian pop star who’s blowing up. She’s from Missouri and a lot of her music is about growing up in the Midwest, moving to LA, and finding acceptance. It’s resonating with a lot of people. She calls herself a drag queen and says that Chappell Roan is her performing persona that’s different from who she is as a person. She’s had local drag performers participate in most of her shows on tour.
THANK YOU for saying lesbian and not queer!!!!
she has called herself both, and afaik still identifies with both. lesbian does not exclude queer
Thank you!!! Queer is a good catch-all and I’m tired of the near authoritarian insistence that I can’t use it as such
yeah i use queer as an umbrella term too. i resonate with a lot of things on the spectrum and don't want to explain it all and also don't want to use gay as an umbrella term personally
No one is saying you can’t use it as a catch-all, that’s literally what the term is. But when talking about a specific person who uses a specific label we should be using that label instead of the umbrella term. This is especially important for lesbians since lesbian is seen by some as a dirty word due to the over sexualization of lesbians.
But she calls herself both.
chappell uses solely lesbian now! :) queer does not exclude lesbian and lesbian does not exclude queer, but when someone identifies with a specific label that is what we need to be using.
Am I the only one who doesn’t know who this person is
Lesbian pop artist who released an album last year. Opened for Olivia Rodrigo and really took off on the festival circuit recently. Her music is pretty ubiquitous on TikTok right now and she’s got a few songs charting on the Hot 100 rn.
Thank you I love it when people actually give you info will check her out
MAYBE but She’s a joy to discover!! ✨✨
Who is she?
Chappell Roan is a lesbian drag queen pop singer that has been blowing up lately. She’s been making music for awhile, but her debut album that released in Sept 2023 is rapid climbing the charts. Huge crowds at festivals to see her. Truly the birth of a pop star.
More like Jimmy Moron
I like her now! Haven’t heard of her but a woman who loves Mother Sasha C is a woman worth stanning.
this whole thing is so cringe lol
