Shortly after the incident, Chappell opened up to Entertainment Tonight about the encounter.
“This is quite overwhelming and quite scary,” she explained. “I think for someone who gets a lot of anxiety around people yelling at you. The carpet is horrifying.”
“And I yelled back. I yelled back! You don’t get to yell at me like that,” she added.
This marks the 26-year-old’s VMA debut. She will take the stage for the first time on Wednesday. Chappell is also up for four awards, including Best New Artist and Push Performance of the Year for “Red Wine Supernova.”
