Queer Pop Diva Chrissy Chlapecka Rises from the Ashes with Empowering Anthem

In the past year, Chrissy Chlapecka has faced a series of personal and professional obstacles, including depression, the demands of the music industry, and the aftermath of past relationships. However, the queer pop artist has emerged stronger than ever, channeling her experiences into her latest single, "Apollo."

Released on Friday, "Apollo" is a radiant cyberpop anthem that celebrates Chlapecka's journey of self-discovery and resilience. The song, which she co-wrote, reflects her longing to "chase the light" and reclaim her identity as the "fierce diva" she has always known herself to be.

The accompanying music video, directed by Mikey Harmon, visually represents Chlapecka's transformation, as she emerges from a plastic tube in a junkyard, like a cyborg princess from outer space. The track's powerful lyrics and Chlapecka's dynamic performance have drawn comparisons to the early work of Lady Gaga, particularly her hit "Judas."

"Apollo" is set to be part of Chlapecka's upcoming EP, Christine, which she describes as a reflection of the "hurt" she has dealt with, as well as a celebration of her inner child and the dreams she has always pursued. The new project is scheduled for release on November 21st, following the recent singles "Passionfruit," "Clam Casino," and "Cherry Do You Love Me."

Chlapecka's journey of self-empowerment and resilience resonates with her growing fanbase, who see her as a beacon of hope for the LGBTQ+ community. As she continues to share her story, Chlapecka hopes to inspire others to embrace their own strength and authenticity, no matter the challenges they face.
