    Chappell Roan has joined MAC Cosmetics as a new global ambassador

    The 27-year-old pop star will be appearing in the beauty brand's campaigns around the world in 2026 in what she has described as a "full circle" moment.


    She said in a press release: "Partnering with MAC feels full circle.
    “This brand has always made space for people like me; since day one they’ve embraced art, queerness, drag and self-expression.
    "I’ve built a special relationship with the MAC team over the years, and they’ve been amazing and thoughtful collaborators on this new journey.”
    The Pink Pony Club hitmaker teased that there are some exciting plans in the pipeline for next year.
    She added: “I can’t wait for the time when I can share what we’ve made with people everywhere.”
    Chappell has collaborated with the brand in the past, including at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, and an appearance for Saturday Night Live the same year.
    They also worked together at the Grammy Awards earlier this year, which makeup artist Andrew Dahling described as "an archive moment".
    Meanwhile, Nicola Formichetti MAC Cosmetics global creative director - has hailed the Hot To Go! singer as “one of the most exciting and powerful artists of this generation" and "a true creative force who uses beauty as a form of bold, emotional storytelling".
    She added: "Chappell represents a generation that values authenticity, queer joy and fearless self-expression, which aligns perfectly with MAC and our mission of ‘All Ages, All Races, All Genders.’
    "Her love for her community, especially her commitment to LGBTQIA+ voices and rights, reflects the heart of what MAC has championed since the beginning."
    Meanwhile, MAC Cosmetics SVP and Global General Manager Aïda Moudachirou-Rebois reflected on the brand's history with Chappel.
    She said: "We partnered with Chappell early on in her rise to fame, supporting her makeup artistry and vision for a few of her career defining moments, and since our first interaction, we knew there was more ground to cover together.
    "Not only is her story one of perseverance and grit, but she continues to electrify any space she occupies.”
