Grammy Awards 2025 - Chappell wins Best New Artist!

Image
A night of glamour, performance and excitement, celebrating an incredible year of music. We were all VERY  excited for the 2025 Grammy Awards and they certainly did not disappoint. Many of us sat for hours eagerly hoping to catch a glimpse of Chappell on the red carpet and in the audience, excitedly awaiting her live performance. Her red-carpet look gave feather couture with a 2003 Gautier dress and headpiece, styled her long time collaborator Genesis Webb.

Faces of Music

Sephora have released a documentary mini-series on Hulu called "Faces of Music", with individual episodes featuring Chappell Roan, Victoria Monét, and Becky G. The episodes explore the crossover between music and beauty, and in Chappell's episode she gives us more detail about her own beauty regimes and explains how this has helped develop her to develop the persona of Chappell Roan today. Whilst re-creating her Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess album cover look, she talks about her experience of being out, as well as the importance of her shows providing a safe space for her fans. Despite the layers of make-up and costume, this interview feels like Chappell at her most bare yet, and we are grateful that she has also found a safe space to express her true self, just like she helps to create for us.   Faces of Music is featured in full length on Hulu, or in part via YouTube:

Other artists in the shortlist included Ezra Collective , Barry Can't Swim , Myles Smith , and English Teacher . The longlist included Confidence Man , Doechii , Good Neighbours , KNEECAP , Mk.gee , and Pozer . Chappell was presented the award by BBC Radio 1's Jack Saunders who hosts the channel's New Music Show, and interviewed about her career so far as well as what she is hoping for in the next 12 months. There was some criticism in the media of the award being given to Chappell, as some say it should be given to artists who have not yet hit mainstream success, however we at ChapsWeb agree with Jack Saunders's opinion that "Chappell was the most exciting artist of the last 12 months, and is now set to ...
