WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA- Chrissy Chlapecka has been on my radar since 2020. She quickly became one of my favorite TikTokers during the early days of quarantine, the queen of #bimbotok, proving that being gorgeous and posting silly skits didn’t mean she wasn’t whip-smart and passionate about progressive causes. She built a loyal tribe of “girls, gays, and theys,” and in 2022, she surprised us all by stepping into the music world—born from that same authenticity and unapologetic energy.
I fell in love with her song “I’m So Hot” in 2023 and spent months cheering for the moment I’d finally catch her live. That moment arrived at Outloud, and the second I saw her name on the bill, I knew I was in for something special. When she appeared in her iconic red-and-leopard-print ensemble, flanked by dancers or just her guitar player—or even solo—she owned the space. Her charisma radiated, her voice soared, effortlessly shifting through bubblegum-pop gems like “BRAT” and grittier, rock-tinged new cuts like “Cherry Do You Love Me.”
What pulled me in from day one was Chrissy’s blend of joy and vulnerability. Open about her mental health journey and sexuality, she balances laughter and candor with infectious melodies. It’s a rare combo that has propelled her from TikTok personality to pop provocateur, and seeing her perform confirmed she’s owning it.
Her debut EP, Girlie Pop, released June 5, 2024, embodies high camp and self-love anthems—picture early-2000s Britney meets Broadway flourish—crafted with producer Dallas Caton and Jesse Saint John. The deluxe Girlie Pop: Encore dropped in September, deepening the emotional palette and signaling Chrissy’s growth toward bolder authenticity.
Critics have sat up and taken notice. Rolling Stone named her a “Brightest Pop Star to Watch in 2023,” and People included her among their top emerging artists in 2024 . A theater kid from Illinois, Chrissy amassed over 5 million TikTok followers before stepping into music—proof that charisma and talent can cross platforms with ease .
At Outloud, she performed tracks from her EP and previewed upcoming material—her voice strong, playful, and precise. She beam-powered the crowd, transforming pop beats into emotional punch with that signature duality: sweet and sassy, bold and introspective. Watching her glide through soundscapes while commanding the stage proved she’s not just a social media star; she’s a real musical force.
