Two reporters covering the 2025 Grammys red carpet are facing extensive backlash after cutting off their interview with Babyface to talk to Chappell Roan.
Not only are fans lambasting the journalists as “disrespectful” for snubbing the R&B legend but many are making accusations of racism and racial insensitivity, especially since the event took place on February 2 during Black History Month.
In the clip that swiftly went viral on Sunday evening, Associated Press entertainment reporter Krysta Fauria can be seen speaking with the illustrious singer and songwriter alongside her colleague Leslie Ambriz. In the middle of Babyface’s answer to a question, she looks away and spots Chappell Roan, cutting off the musician mid-sentence.
