In Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian soccer player Jorginho Frero is no longer wanted by the mayor after slamming Chapel Lawn and his security guard for leaving his stepdaughter in tears.
Rio Mayor Eduardo Cavaliere posted on X on Saturday that Roan, 28, will never perform at Todo Mundo no Rio while he is in office.
Todo Mundo No Rio is a series of free international music events held on Copacabana Beach, headlined by big-name superstars like Madonna and Lady Gaga. Shakira will be the headliner in May.
Cavaliere wrote, “So as long as I’m in charge of this city, this young woman @ChappellRoan will never perform at Todo Mundo no Rio! I don’t think Shakira would do that!”
“By the way, (Frero), your child is already the guest of honor from the May organization!” he added, referring to Flero’s 11-year-old stepdaughter, Ada.
Frero made headlines on Saturday when he posted that Ada, whose father is actor Jude Law, and his wife (Ada’s mother) Katherine Harding were abused by Lorne’s security guard at a hotel in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Roan is in Japan this weekend as a headliner at Lollapalooza Brazil, along with Sabrina Carpenter and Tyler, The Creator.
“My daughter woke up so excited. She was so happy to meet an artist she really respects and who she used to look up to @chappellroan that she even made a sign for him,” Flero wrote on Instagram.
The athlete claimed that Ada saw Lorne at breakfast, but he did not approach her or ask her anything. Ms Frero claimed that the singer’s “massive” security staff confronted Ada and her mother and spoke to them in a “very aggressive manner”.
“My daughter was so scared that she cried a lot,” Flero wrote. “To be honest, I don’t know how in the world just walking past a table and looking would be considered harassment.”
Flero wrote directly to Roanne: “Without your fans, you would be nothing. And fans, she is not worthy of your affection.”
Roane later gave her version of events, saying the security guard in question was not part of her personal security.
“I didn’t even see any women or children. No one approached me,” she said in an Instagram video. “No one paid any attention to me. I was just eating breakfast at the hotel. I think these people were also staying at the hotel.”
“I didn’t do it, they didn’t approach me, they didn’t do anything,” she clarified.
The “Pink Pony Club” singer said she doesn’t “hate” fans of her music.
“I don’t hate kids, it’s crazy or whatever,” she added.
