“There’s someone in my life who’s just been talking to me about her forever,” Sarah told Jess and Julia, “and I was like, ‘I don’t know. I don’t have any room in my brain for something new … Taylor Swift just occupies the entire thing.'”

But as Sarah made space, she tried to get her partner, Holland Taylor, to love Chappell too.

“I have literally, like, made Holland — I’m like, ‘Wait, just listen to this song “California.” This was about when she came to LA, and she… Okay, now, just listen to the song “Coffee.” This is about a lover she… Okay, now, listen…’ And Holland’s like, ‘I think it’s wonderful, darling.’ She really likes it, but I can tell she’s not like — I don’t know if she’s going to be going to the concert with me.”

Like many other Chappell fans, Sarah was “desperate to go see” her in concert.

“The only time I was able to go was I think a music show in Austin, and then all the tickets were so expensive, and I was like, ‘I’m going to do it anyway,’ and then I ended up not [being able to] go,” Sarah said.

To Jess and Julia, she added, “I think she’s playing right now, and, for example, I’m talking to you, which is great fun for me, but I could be at a Chappell Roan concert.”
