Chappell: >”As of today, I am no longer represented by Wasserman, the talent agency led by Casey Wasserman. I hold my teams to the highest standards and have a duty to protect them as well. No artist, agent or employee should ever be expected to defend or overlook actions that conflict so deeply with our own moral values. I have deep respect and appreciation for the agents and staff who work tirelessly for their artists and I refuse to passively stand by. Artists deserve representation that aligns with their values and supports their safety and dignity. This decision reflects my belief that meaningful change in our industry requires accountability and leadership that earns trust.”
C
Good for her. She cant do much about all this but respect for taking concrete action and hitting them where it hurts in their wallets. Losing her is a whoooole lotta money walking out the door.
W
That kind of stance sets a precedent—others might start questioning their own agencies too.
F
She should start an agency
D
I agree, first_date_anal
T
Yes, once again first\_date\_anal holds all of us to the highest ethical standards.
S
TBH if it’s consensual, that’s an ethically sound stance.
I
I’d imagine you’d want a sound stance for… you know… ;D

Three points of contact at all times. 👷♂️

Regulations are written in blood.

If the source is sound, it ain’t inconvenient
I
I’d like to think so. Some folks just don’t agree with reality.
C
Sounding?
C
Yes, it has often been said that FIRST_DATE_ANAL is a model of moral responsibility that all of us should aspire to
M
I thought that was the suggested name of her taken agency
B
Honestly not a bad name
B
*Anally yours, Saskatchewan* Records
R
Same
G
It took me like 2 minutes to figure out you were responding to someone and not suggesting a name for her label.
R
Oh thank you! I was sitting here confusedly googling chappel roan first_date_anal, thinking that’s off brand for her

I imagine someone yelling “LLLOOOOYD!” as the elevator door closed.

Not just good for her, good for all of us. This is what we all need more of; people in positions of influence with ethics and principles, taking a stand. Hell, even Katy Perry has turned around from being MAGA to making political statements about ICE. Meanwhile over in Taylor Swift land…
D
Perry was never MAGA. She campaigned for Obama, Clinton and Harris. People on Reddit who lack critical thinking skills just repeat everything they see.
M
I think it because of that time she was an astronaut. But KP is clearly not MAGA (but listened too long to maple MAGA flags and took the assignments to heart )
C
Was Katy Perry ever MAGA? I know she started in Christian music but that was, iirc, ages before MAGA and whatever politics she had pretty openly shifted into liberal territory as she got into pop music. She went on that dumb Amazon space flight but that’s its own thing.
S
She endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016 so I don’t think she’s quite MAGA, but yeah, that whole flight thing was a bit cringey.
S
Granted, if I was offered a space flight, even if it was by a total douche canoe, I’d probably take it.
M
Yeah, reddit is really weird… ‘Did Katy Perry support a fascist government’ ‘Well…no, but she diiidd take that space flight!’.
_
It was stupid but the response is so over the top which is par the course for Reddit actually so idk why I’m surprised
T
Don’t forget the hate for dating former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau.
O
endorsing Hillary is so far from “not quite MAGA”. I’d say that’s pretty far from MAGA, just happens to be religious too.
S
When the LA mayor thing was happening in 2022, she voted for Rick Caruso over Karen Bass which got her quite a bit backlash as he is everything she supposedly claims to be against.
J
Lap Dogg (or Snoop Dogg as most people call him) voted for him too i think. Didn’t go down well at the time.
S
Kim K as well but that isn’t that surprising.
T
Katy Perry has never been MAGA, but she hasn’t really denounced them either and has associated with some of them. She did endorse Dems in the past as well.
N
She is currently snogging Trudeau. Can’t really see him spending much time with a red cap.
C
No she wasn’t MAGA. People are just incredibly reactionary. Katy Perry correctly used her platform to be openly critical of the DNC for trotting a senile Joe Biden out to run for a 2nd term The DNC is, and has been for a long time, the greatest hurdle in the way for democratic success in the US Edit: spelling is hard
T
I’d take “senile joe biden” over this shit show every fucking day for the rest of my life.
B
That’s actually a great point. People crack his age and the shape he was in rightfully so, but at least we weren’t having a known pedophile sending untrained psychos into our cities terrorizing families and killing citizens
K
And that’s what the democrats have been relying on while they continue to look out for corporate interests and themselves instead of the people. The problem is that doing that over and over leaves a massive gaping power vacuum that Trump swallowed up whole.
O
What most democrats fail to realize is what holds them back is their willingness to be governed by circumstance. Republicans gave up on the premise of ruling by principles a long time ago and it works for them because their base is so much more active and zealous and brainwashed. But the democrats can’t afford to engage in whataboutism and abandoning principles on a whim. It doesn’t work out as well at all
K
100% agree, especially in a country where you don’t have mandatory voting. The entire deck is stacked against common sense progress in America. Trump doesn’t need to convince his base to vote for him, he can also just convince people the other guy is an idiot and to stay home.
M
The DNC is shit BUT I would argue that the republican party doing everything they can to gerrymander, suppress votes, pack courts, and fucking lie about everything all the time consistently is a larger threat to democracy. Don’t blame the victim, even when the victim is a huge dipshit doing jack shit to help themselves.
T
I mean, no—the *greatest* hurdle is the republicans. Whatever their many faults, criticizing incompetent allies to the *exclusion* of criticizing the actual enemy is never a sane take. And you see them all over reddit—people who claim to not support trump, but are always finding a reason to criticize and virtue-test his opponents while spending no time at all actually criticizing him and his supporters. It’s a bad faith pattern that needs to be called out. These days those posters mostly hide their history to conceal the pattern but by the same token, it’s fair to conclude anyone with a hidden history is probably acting in bad faith.
C
She is dating Justin Trudeau who’s a liberal Dem(?) I believe. She is just morphing into whoever she dates.
R
Liberal. We don’t have a Democratic Party.
R
It’s just the Liberal Party in Canada. There is a party called the New Democratic Party as well tho.
