In recent years, celebrities have been given a new thing to fear when it comes to public events: the lip readers of TikTok.
After this mix-up, Selena appeared to poke fun at the lip-reading drama when she posed for a photo with Emily Blunt, who’d also fallen victim to the lip readers, with both women covering their mouths in the picture.
And Chappell Roan seemed to be prepared for the internet sleuths at Wednesday night’s MTV VMAs, with the star cleverly bringing a fan with her to the event, which she opened to speak behind whenever she wanted to chat during the ceremony.
In one viral clip, Chappell can be seen dancing with her fan closed before quickly whipping it up to her mouth, opening it, and saying something to her creative director and friend Ramisha Sattar, who is sat beside her.
Once she had finished speaking, Chappell promptly closed her fan again, with a proud smile on her face.
And the fan wasn’t Chappell’s only viral moment of the night, with the singer also being widely praised for her show-stopping performance during the ceremony — which came after she’d had a tense moment on the red carpet.
