Chappell Roan had an explosive rise to fame, going from opening Olivia Rodrigo’s GUTS tour in February 2024 to having possibly the largest daytime set in Lollapalooza history later that year. On December 8th, 2025, Chappell Roan announced her partnership with the makeup brand MAC as a MAC Ambassador via Instagram. A makeup partnership in and of itself wouldn’t be all that unusual, as her bold makeup is a defining part of her performing persona. However, what many people have a problem with is that the partnership is with MAC itself, a company known to indirectly allow animal testing and to support the genocide in Palestine. Another issue about this partnership is that there are plenty of other brands that support the values Chappell claimed to uphold, and ones that Chappell even used before.
