The singer-songwriter posted the clip on her TikTok account which sees her play the part of Kurt Hummel – played by Chris Colfer – speaking into a microphone during an interview with a classmate.
“You know what does take some courage? Standing up and singing about something,” she says. “So here’s a message for everyone that reads your blog: Next time, instead of posting an anonymous comment online, say what you have to say to my face.”
She then receives a slushie to the face.

In the original Glee scene, Colfer’s character is hit by a surprise slushie that a bully throws in his face.
“This is the worst episode of Glee I have ever seen,” Roan told the camera jokingly while holding back laughter. “I am turning it off. I hate it. Next,” she continued while being handed the TV’s remote control, pausing and clicking the “next” button.
The Grammy-nominated singer then shared a follow-up video shortly after, jokingly apologising for her take on the episode. “This is my apology video for the Gleeks that I offended. I am so sorry,” Roan began, while the person recording pointed a pair of scissors at her.
“I love every episode of Glee, and I love Kurt and Blaine,” she continued, letting out a laugh after referencing Chris Colfer and Darren Criss’ characters on the hit 2009 series.
Created by Ryan Murphy (American Horror Story, Monster), Glee aired on Fox from May 2009 until March 2015. The jukebox musical comedy-drama starred the likes of Lea Michele, Dianna Agron and Matthew Morrison, and focused on the fictional William McKinley High School’s glee club – named the New Directions.
She also recently reflected on her huge breakout year by ranking her personal favourite “iconique” looks of 2024.
In other news, The Cure’s Robert Smith recently discussed Roan’s comments on fame while appearing as a guest on the Sidetracked podcast with Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw. Smith said it was a “complicated subject”, adding: “You want people to feel like they think they’re engaging with you, but it is a modern world phenomenon that there is a sense of entitlement that didn’t used to be there amongst fans when we started out.
Elsewhere, Roan’s ‘Good Luck, Babe’ was recently named as NME’s best song of 2024. “With ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, Roan set out to write a ‘big anthemic pop song’. It was an unqualified success: over subtly insistent synth-pop, Roan serves up home truths to someone desperately trying to deny their queerness,” the entry read.
The post Watch Chappell Roan get slushied while recreating a scene from ‘Glee’ appeared first on NME.
