Chappell Roan, Violet Chachki & One Lucky Fan Turned the Internet Into Chaos Over an Earring

What happens when a beloved pop star, a RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, a lucky fan and one piece of discarded jewelry collide? As Chappell Roan and Violet Chachki proved, that particular formula leads to online chaos.

In a viral TikTok posted over the weekend, one of Roan’s fans revealed that her roommate had a very rare piece of memorabilia — a single earring that Roan wore during her second weekend performance at Coachella 2024. “me everytime I remember my roommate caught Chappell Roan’s earring at the weekend 2 Coachella set and it just lives in my room,” the fan wrote over a video of the earring sitting in a frame on their bookshelf.

The video went so viral, in fact, that Roan herself saw it and decided to comment revealing some key context around the earring. “Ok the tea is I was very much not supposed to throw them because I didn’t realize they were violet chachki’s and she loaned them to me,” Roan wrote. “I apologized profusely& it’s fine loll but Iconic nonetheles [sic].”

Chachki, never one to waste an opportunity to create some funny drama, posted a video response to Roan’s comment, jokingly threatening to take the singer and her stylist Genesis Webb to court over the missing trinket. “This means f–king war. My long lost earring that I have been searching high and low for has been discovered by the children of the internet,” she said in the clip. “And you will pay Genesis Webb and Mx. Roan!” The caption for her video summed up her feelings: “justice for my bare lobes!!!!!”

At this point, even Webb herself chimed in, commenting on Chachki’s video by apologizing and offering to make amends. “I bend the knee, holding a plate of Swarovski crystals and cheese I can’t pronounce,” the stylist wrote. Chachki responded with a series of thinking emojis, followed by a few knife emojis.

For anyone who was convinced that the fan was in actual trouble, Chachki set the record straight in the comments — they responded to Chachki’s comment on their video saying that if the queen wanted her earring back, “we will make sure it gets back to you queen.” Chachki responded, saying they could keep the jewelry. “No diva it’s fine — Earrings are meant to be lost. Just keep supporting queer art,” she wrote with a purple heart emoji.

All the “drama” comes hours before Roan drops her much-anticipated new single “The Giver.” After initially premiering it on a November 2024 episode of SNL, Roan revealed to Country Heat Weekly that the purpose behind the track was simply not that deep. “I’m not trying to convince a country crowd that they should listen to my music by baiting them with a country song,” she said. “I just think a lesbian country song is really funny, so I wrote that.”
