It’s 2025 and, against all odds, Chappell Roan has landed smack-bang in the centre of a fresh Troye Sivan and Connor Franta situation. Yes, really. You couldn’t script it if you tried and my YouTube fangirl heart is beaming!
Here’s how this nostalgic drama started. It was Troye who fired the first shot: a throwback photo dump on Instagram featuring a slice of 2014 history, with Troye and Chappell Roan front and centre, but Connor Franta sneakily cropped out. Naturally, the subtle shade, intentional or not, sent internet detectives into a frenzy.
Troye hopped on his Instagram comments to clarify he snagged the image on the wilds of the internet. In classic Troye style, he cheekily explained, “FYI I found that pic online doing my weekly Google of ‘Troye Sivan and Chappell Roan’, not my crop!”
A routine is so important!
Of course, Connor couldn’t just let that lie. His response? An Insta Post almost identical in style, deadpan captioned: “my good side”.
For everyone who’s missed out on the last, oh, seven years of Sivan-Franta-verse, that phrase instantly rang bells. Troye’s 2018 single “The Good Side”, rumoured by every armchair pop historian online to be about Connor, is back in the chat.
While neither party’s ever gone full Oprah about the details, Franta did sort of spill some tea on the Obsessed with Brooke Averick web series this year, chatting about discovering Chappell Roan’s music with “my boyfriend at the time” in 2014 — swiftly setting off alarm bells for OG “Tronnor” shippers everywhere.
But let’s not forget the real MVP: Chappell Roan, apparently just vibing while the drama orbits around her like she’s the sun (as she should).
After Troye’s photo, he and Connor both rallied their fans to check out “vocally blessed goddess” Roan. Troye went so far as to say, “Her voice is amazing. I haven’t heard a voice like this since Adele, no exaggeration.”
Connor added, “Give that vocally blessed goddess her well-deserved promo.”
If you have flashbacks to O2L fandom and early-YouTube serotonin, you’re not alone. Both icons also unleashed a thirst-trap as the second slide in their matching photo dumps, practically doing Insta chess at this point.
Listen, maybe it’s just a bit of cheeky banter. Maybe it’s referencing real, unresolved feels. Maybe they just both stan Chappell Roan.
Whatever the case, we have to confess, this is a level of niche drama that’s both hilarious and, dare we say, mildly tender, for all those who yearn for Troye’s Blue Neighbourhood era or spent formative years in the YouTube rabbit hole.
