As fans of Chappell Roan impatiently wait for the Pink Pony Club hitmaker to release new music, Roan has launched a new side hustle as a DJ.
The 28-year-old performed her first ever DJ set over the weekend at MISTR's 2nd Annual National PrEP Day at The Abbey in West Hollywood, Los Angeles.
Roan also debuted a new look by swapping her signature red curls for blunt bangs and straight hair.
For her wardrobe, The Subway singer wore a tight latex ensemble from designer Christian Cowan.
'So sweet to be back in the bar that inspired Pink Pony Club,' Roan wrote on Instagram.
After posting photos from the night, Roan's fans and celebrity pals left plenty of gushing comments.

The 28-year-old is usually known for her long curly red hair
'That's hot,' wrote Paris Hilton, while Olivia Rodrigo exclaimed, 'Wow, my jaw dropped.'
Rumors are currently swirling on social media that Roan will appear on a remix of Rodrigo's hit song Expectations, but nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
Roan hasn't released any new music this year, with her last single being The Subway, which was released in late July 2025.
Before that, she put out the country-tinged hit The Giver, which peaked at No. 5 on the Hot 100.
The outspoken songstress told Vogue magazine last year that she has not started working on a follow-up to her chart-topping debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.
'The second project doesn't exist yet,' she said. 'There is no album. There is no collection of songs.'
She then admitted that it could be years before fans get another album from her.
'It took me five years to write the first one, and it's probably going to take at least five to write the next,' she said.

'I'm not that type of writer that can pump it out … Even if I was in the studio 12 hours a day, every single day, that does not mean that you would get an album any faster.'
Despite the lack of new music, Roan has kept busy by performing at various music festivals.
She was recently one of the headliners at Rodrigo's all-female festival Daisy Chain Fields, which raised money for Planned Parenthood.
Roan has her own charity concerts coming up soon too, the Super Graphic Spectacular.
The concerts, which will be held over two nights in Los Angeles this month, will feature Lola Young, Tinashe, Caroline Polachek, and Roan herself.
All proceeds will go to Roan's Midwest Princess Project, which is an LGBTQ+ charity focused on trans youth.
