Chappell Roan Amends Tribute to Brigitte Bardot After Learning About Her ‘Insane,’ ‘Disappointing’ Beliefs
Trending on BillboardUPDATE: Shortly after this story was published, Roan once again posted on her Instagram Story to condemn the “insane s–t Ms. Bardot stood for,” adding, “[Obviously] I do not condone this. Very disappointing to learn.”Chappell Roan has paid tribute to Brigitte Bardot following the iconic French actress’ death at the age of 91. In an Instagram Story post on Sunday (Dec. 28) — the same day Bardot’s foundation announced the news — the pop star shared a glamorous photo of the late legend and wrote, “Rest in peace Ms. Bardot.”Roan also wrote, “She was my inspiration for red wine supernova,” referencing one of her Billboard Hot 100 hits, “Red Wine Supernova.”On her The Rise & Fall of a Midwest Princess track, the Missouri native sings, “She was a playboy, Brigitte Bardot/ She showed me things I didn’t know/ She did it right there out on the deck/ Put her canine teeth in the side of my neck.”Roan is one of many Bardot fans expressing sadness over the former model’s passing. On Sunday, The Brigitte Bardot Foundation — which its namesake created in 1986 to champion the rights of animals — announced her death in a statement, praising her as “an exceptional woman who gave everything and gave up everything for a world more respectful of animals.” The statement added, “Her legacy lives on through the actions and struggles the Foundation continues with the same passion and the same fidelity to her ideals.”Before changing paths to become an animal rights activist, Bardot forged a singular legacy for herself as an actress (1956’s And God Created Woman was an international sensation), singer (her Serge Gainsbourg duet “Bonnie and Clyde” from 1968 is an enduring favorite), model, fashion icon and sex symbol. Roan is far from the only modern star to have taken inspiration from the legendary entertainer: Sabrina Carpenter often channels her through fashion, while Olivia Rodrigo sings on “Lacy,” “Dazzling starlet, Bardot reincarnate / Well, aren’t you the greatest thing to ever exist?”Bardot’s memory is also complicated by her controversial support of far-right politics in her home country and her five convictions of inciting racial hatred against Muslims. 🖊️️🤖
