“This is quite overwhelming and quite scary,” Roan told Entertainment Tonight. “For someone who gets a lot of anxiety around people yelling at you, the carpet is horrifying and I yelled back. You don’t get to yell at me like that.”

On the red carpet, Roan wore a sheer maroon dress. Her medieval-inspired look included a sword, light green cloak, a large cross necklace and long pointy fingernails.

During the show, she performed her hit single “Good Luck, Babe!” and won the best new artist award.
