Chappell Roan\u2019s medieval fairytale vision came alive on stage at Laneway Festival on Sunday in the form of camp, feminine energy as she performed her greatest pop hits.<\/p>\n

Thousands of excited fans wearing pink cowgirl hats huddled together in front of Arena Joondalup\u2019s main stage as they waited for the singing sensation\u2019s concert to begin just before 9pm.<\/p>\n

The suspense in the air was electric as all eyes focused on the giant gothic castle set on stage, and after some flashing green lights and smoke, the decorated pop star emerged to a screaming crowd.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old, born Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, looked flawless in a pirate-like red and black Elizabethan outfit with a modern twist.<\/p>\n

With her voluminous curly red hair flowing behind her, she launched into her song Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl, then continued with Femininomenon and After Midnight.<\/p>\n

Her makeup looked impeccable, and she sparkled under the stage lights thanks to her golden eyeshadow, glowing cheek highlighter and perfectly lined maroon lips.<\/p>\n

From dancing on the stage to ascending the stairs onto the castle bridge, she brought the party vibes.<\/p>\n

She jammed alongside her all female band members who also wore eccentric outfits on theme with Roan\u2019s drag-queen influenced style.<\/p>\n

Addressing her fans she said: \u201cThank you for having me. You guys are so far away, that\u2019s okay.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is so awesome, I\u2019m so grateful to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roan also took a moment to thank all of her crew who helped her achieve success during the gruelling festival circuit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a really hard festival run for so many reasons,\u201d she admitted.<\/p>\n

As Roan continued to perform her hits like The Subway, The Giver, Red Wine Supernova and Good Luck, Babe! it was hard not to be mesmerised by the impressive stage design and screen graphics.<\/p>\n

Roan and her creative team really thought of everything to create a production full of theatrics and nods to classic fantasy tales with circling dragons and dancing goblin visuals.<\/p>\n

During Hot To Go, she pulled out fiery pyrotechnics as the entire mass of fans did the signature letter dance moves (think YMCA) to the catchy track.<\/p>\n

During her set, Roan also revealed she suffered a wardrobe malfunction during her cover of Barracuda by 1977 band Heart.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t on the floor having a seizure,\u201d she said, referring to when she lied down on the floor for part of the song.<\/p>\n

\u201cBless it be, my nipple came out.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also later debunked rumours she had work done to her bum saying, \u201cYes, it is my real a**\u201d.<\/p>\n

Roan finished her 90 minute concert with My Kink is Karma and one of her most popular songs Pink Pony Club.<\/p>\n

It was certainly the festival of Chappell Roan as Laneway ended its New Zealand and Australian run in WA in the best way possible.<\/p>\n

Despite some fans citing audio issues, Roan\u2019s act blew festivalgoers away with the extent of creativity and just pure good vibes playing out on the stage.<\/p>\n

Roan has cemented herself as a pop princess not to be reckoned with and it\u2019s no wonder why she was awarded the Best New Artist at The Grammys in 2025.<\/p>\n

The rest of Laneway also oozed talent with one very special Australian icon taking the stage to surprise the crowd.<\/p>\n
