"Holy (expletive) i did not know all that insane (expletive) Ms. Bardot stood for," Roan wrote Monday in a post on her Instagram Stories.
Grammy-winning singer Chappell Roan has backtracked on her praise for Brigitte Bardot after learning about the late French film icon's "very disappointing" far-right political beliefs.
"Holy (expletive) i did not know all that insane (expletive) Ms. Bardot stood for," Roan wrote Monday in a post on her Instagram Stories.
Bardot, an international sex symbol who starred in Roger Vadim's "And God Created Woman" and Jean-Luc Godard's "Contempt," gravitated toward the French far-right in her later years.
She was repeatedly fined for inciting racial hatred against Muslim immigrants to France, according to news reports. In her 1996 memoir, she declared her support for far-right National Front leader Jean-Marie Le Pen. Le Pen's advisers included Bernard d'Ormale, Bardot's fourth husband.
"I do not condone this," Roan wrote in her Instagram post, adding that it had been "very disappointing to learn" about Bardot's political beliefs. Roan did not specify which views she found objectionable.
Roan, 27, name-dropped Bardot on her 2023 single "Red Wine Supernova," which opens with the rhyming lyric: "She was a playboy, Brigitte Bardot / She showed me things I didn't know."
After Bardot died on Sunday, Roan initially paid her respects on Instagram. "Rest in peace Ms. Bardot," the singer wrote. "She was my inspiration for red wine supernova."
French political figures across the ideological spectrum eulogized Bardot in statements after her death. French President Emmanuel Macron said she "embodied a life of freedom."
Jordan Bardella, the president of the far-right National Rally party, a successor to the National Front, hailed her as a "passionate patriot" who symbolized "an entire era of French history."
Brigitte Bardot, 1960s French film icon and animal rights activist, dies at 91 Bardot was a committed advocate for animal rights and launched a foundation devoted to their protection. She lobbied for animal welfare legislation and helped secure convictions against perpetrators of animal abuse.
Bruno Jacquelin, a representative of Bardot's foundation, told The Associated Press that she died at her home in southern France. She was 91. Jacquelin did not provide a cause of death, adding that arrangements have yet been made for funeral or memorial services.
Bardot had been hospitalized last month after a period of ill health.
And her father smelt of elderberries...
It’s fun watching these ignorant attention whores tripping all over themselves.
Bardot didn’t want what is happening to France right now to happen.
Stupid people find that to be very racist.
What an ugly looking ?woman?....
Communists are extremely tolerant of everyone they agree with.
I think even they’d be grossed out
sings Pink Pony Club. ugly girl.
“Chappell Roan” sounds like the name of a racehorse.
I guess she thought it was cooler than Kayleigh Rose Amstutz.
BTW, never heard of the person in this article. I thought it was about the comedian Dave Chapelle.
An actual biological woman who failed at becoming a pop star as a woman, so she reinvented herself as a woman so weird and ugly everyone assumes she’s either a drag queen or a tranny and is surprised to learn she’s actually a woman. She’s had a few songs that are really popular with the LGBTQIAWTF crowd.
The left is incapable of thought. They are like children who believe the only way is their way.
This is how the left works, ANYONE that is a Republican when they die they are supposed to say “Oh Im sorry she’s dead but heck she didnt want France to be destroyed by Jihadist scum so who cares” Notice in France, they canceled the New Years Eve Celebrations because they are afraid the migrant scum they allowed in will blow up the celebrations..so instead of getting rid of the vermin they let in, they are just gonna cancel all celebrations
Never heard of Roan but an obvious leftist useless POS.
Perfect response.
Amd her father smelled of edleberries?
Chrissie Hynde too in The Pretenders' "Message Of Love":
‘Tis interesting to note that the sordid, low IQ, low T, and no morals media always can identify “far right” (which we all know is merely “always right), whilst nowhere can be found the phrase “far left”. Their time will come and I hope that the resulting prosecution and expulsion from civilized society is televised.
>>In her 1996 memoir, she declared her support for far-right National Front leader Jean-Marie Le Pen. Le Pen’s advisers included Bernard d’Ormale, Bardot’s fourth husband.<<
Even though she’s gone, I stand with Brigitte Bardot on this matter.
What the Hell is a Roan??
