Chappell Roan Retracts Brigitte Bardot Tribute Amid Controversy

Chappell Roan retracted a social media tribute to Brigitte Bardot after learning about the late French actress's history of far-right views and criminal convictions for inciting racial hatred. The 2025 Grammy winner deleted her initial post following the death of Bardot at age 91, clarifying that she does not condone the icon's long-standing anti-immigrant and Islamophobic rhetoric.Roan expressed deep disappointment over the discovery, noting that her song "Red Wine Supernova" was originally inspired by the former film star before the political controversy surfaced.
