Pink Pony Club hitmaker Chappell Roan has admitted her critics get to her more than she lets on.
Chappell Roan has admitted the backlash she faces has started to feel personal.
The Hot To Go hitmaker - whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz - has admitted while she never used to "give a f***" about criticism, that's changed since it appeared to be directed at her real self.
In a conversation for Interview Magazine, SZA asked Chappell if she "gave a f*** about the backlash".
She admitted: “I didn’t, until people started hating me for me and not for my art.
“When it’s not about my art anymore, it’s like, ‘They hate me because I’m Kayleigh, not because they hate the songs that I make. That’s when it changed.”
The Pink Pony Club pop star pointed out that fans only know her public persona rather than her true self, but it's still a struggle.
She added: "They don’t [know Kayleigh]. But when things are taken out of context, people assume so much about you.
"I didn’t realise I’d care so much. When it comes to my art, I’m like, 'B****, you can think whatever you want. You are allowed to hate it with all your guts.'
"But when it comes to me and my personality, it’s like, 'Damn. Am I the most insufferable b**** of our generation?' [Laughs]"
