Although this shift to country might not indicate a permanent change in style, Roan joins other pop artists exploring the genre, leaving fans curious about her future projects.

Chappell Roan a surpris les spectateurs de « Saturday Night Live » en passant de sa performance emblématique « Pink Pony Club » à l’introduction d’une nouvelle chanson country, « The Giver. » Dans ce morceau entraînant, elle souligne que les femmes savent comment plaire à d’autres femmes. Arborant un look inspiré du country, Roan a performé avec un groupe entièrement féminin, célébrant des thèmes d’autonomisation et d’intimité ludique. Bien que ce passage vers le country ne soit pas nécessairement un changement de style permanent, Roan rejoint d’autres artistes pop explorant ce genre, laissant les fans curieux de ses projets futurs.

Her kink is… country?

Chappell Roan made a vibrant transition from the “Pink Pony Club” to a country theme on “Saturday Night Live,” delighting her fans with a surprising blend of country look and sound during her second performance, showcasing her new song, “The Giver,” which integrates country music with LGBTQ+ themes.

“I get the job done,” Roan proclaimed in the chorus of her latest track, echoing the sentiment found in her song “Femininomenon,” which asserts that the best way to please a woman is often (or perhaps always) through the hands of another woman.

“All you country boys saying you know how to treat a woman right,” Roan quipped in a spoken interlude — “Well, only a woman knows how to treat a woman right. She gets the job done.”

For her second segment later in the showing, Roan still sported the eye-catching large red wig with white streaks that defined her first performance of “Pink Pony Club.” Everything else, however, had transformed: Roan’s backup singers and all-female band changed their attire to classic denim and Western wear, while Roan dazzled in a gingham-style halter top, short-shorts, and boots reminiscent of “The Dukes of Hazzard.”

But unlike the « dukes » theme, Roan was celebrating the duchesses of Hazzard with lyrics that embraced a bit of risqué humor regarding giving and receiving within intimate partnerships, confidently asserting that “it’s just in my nature to take it like a taker” and that “you don’t need to hurry.”

As Roan’s lively band, now infused with fiddles, delivered the energetic country anthem, cartoon bears and other animated woodland creatures watched in astonishment.

Although the title of the new song was not disclosed before it aired on “SNL,” fans speculated it was called “She Gets the Job Done” based on the catchy chorus. However, NBC later confirmed on social media that the track is titled “The Giver.”

Last week, Roan shared a photo on her social media featuring the LP jacket of her debut album, hinting in her caption that it would soon be replaced by a new one, though there was no indication of when this record might drop. (“Album kinda popped off imo but it is time to welcome a hot new bombshell into the villa,” she wrote, referencing a catchphrase from “Love Island.”) Meanwhile, her producer and co-writer, Dan Nigro, provided insights into the new album’s progress in a recent interview, mentioning they have completed five tracks so far, including a “fun, up-tempo country song” featuring a fiddle that represents “a new version of Chappell.”

Earlier in the evening on “SNL,” Roan performed “Pink Pony Club” and encouraged the studio audience to sing along during the last pre-chorus, stepping back from the microphone. The volume of the sing-along was impressive, suggesting a full house of devoted fans cheering her on through the television speakers.

At the conclusion of “Pink Pony Club,” Roan exuberantly declared, “Live from New York!,” echoing the iconic catchphrase traditionally spoken at the show’s cold open. This spontaneous proclamation marked a unique moment, showcasing her excitement after such an electrifying performance.

Roan’s journey to this moment on “SNL” was 13 years in the making. Just this week, she shared a screenshot of a Facebook post she made in April 2011, when she was only 13, under her previous name, Kayleigh Amstutz, which read: “I am determined to be on SNL.”

Roan’s foray into country music appears to be more of a special occasion rather than a long-term change in style, as Nigro indicated that only one other song in their current projects is a country track. She has also showcased another new song titled “Subway,” which strays from the country genre. Regardless, she joins a growing list of prominent pop artists exploring country music, with Beyoncé and Post Malone releasing country-themed albums recently, and Lana Del Rey working on her own.

Roan’s latest track isn’t the first of its kind within the lesbian country music genre. The Highwomen’s “If She Ever Leaves Me” is another notable example, and this new wave could be a topic during an upcoming discussion moderated by Brandi Carlile with Roan and Nigro in Los Angeles.

The burning question remains: Will Roan receive an invitation to showcase her talent at the Grand Ole O
