Who was the magician in Chappell Roan’s music video red wine super nova?
Hi! I’m Magical Katrina, a female magician who’s had the chance to perform around the world, but one of the most exciting moments of my career so far was being cast in Chappell Roan’s "Red Wine Supernova" music video.
Being part of "Red Wine Supernova" wasn’t just another job—it was a dream. This video was all about love, power, color, energy, and freedom. As a female magician, I got to bring real magic into Chappell Roan’s dreamy, bold, and unforgettable universe. And today, I want to take you behind the scenes of what it was really like filming it.
When I first got the call to be in Chappell Roan’s "Red Wine Supernova", I could barely believe it. I’ve been a female magician for years and have worked on stage, TV, and even virtual shows—but this felt different.
The team wanted someone who could do real, close-up magic and mentalism—things that feel personal, emotional, and visual. They weren’t just adding a magic trick into the video—they wanted magic to be part of the story. I knew right away this would be something special.
In case you haven’t seen me perform before, I’m a female magician, mentalist, and speaker. I’ve performed in over 20 countries, worked with big brands like Formula 1 and Porsche, and even been on TV shows like Penn & Teller: Fool Us and Masters of Illusion. I’ve also toured with Champions of Magic, and during the pandemic, I created interactive online magic shows to connect with people virtually.
But this was my first time stepping into the music video world—and what a way to do it, in Chappell Roan’s "Red Wine Supernova."
The music video for "Red Wine Supernova" was all about celebrating love, empowerment, and transformation. And the magic wasn’t just a background element—it was part of the story.
I performed real close-up magic and mentalism, things like sleight of hand and psychological effects that match the song’s emotion. Every movement and effect had a reason—it wasn’t just about looking cool. It was about helping tell the story.
As a female magician, I was proud to bring a feminine energy to the magical parts. Magic often gets shown as flashy or mysterious, but here it felt emotional and meaningful. We were telling a story about love, connection, and identity, and magic was part of how that story unfolded.
One of my favorite moments on set was working directly with Chappell Roan. She’s not just a great artist—she’s also warm, collaborative, and full of creative energy. Watching her perform the song over and over, with full power and emotion, was so inspiring.
And the set? It was GORGEOUS. Every scene of "Red Wine Supernova" felt like stepping into a dream world—rich colors, glittering lights, and incredible costumes. Being part of that world, even for a few days, was unforgettable.
Being a female magician in a mostly male industry isn’t always easy. When I started, there weren’t many women doing magic professionally. A lot of people assumed I was the assistant, not the magician. But things are changing, and I’m so happy to be part of that change.
Being featured as the female magician in Chappell Roan’s "Red Wine Supernova" felt like a big step forward—not just for me, but for other girls and women who might see the video and think, “I could do that too.”
Representation matters. Seeing someone like you in media, in magic, or in music videos helps you believe you belong there too. I hope my role helps open more doors for women and inspires more diversity in magic.
"Red Wine Supernova" isn’t just a catchy pop song. It’s a celebration of love in all its forms—romantic, queer, self-love, and artistic love. There’s power in the way Chappell Roan expresses herself: bold, beautiful, unafraid.
That’s part of why this collaboration meant so much to me. As a queer artist myself, I felt deeply connected to the song’s message. It wasn’t just about doing card tricks—it was about helping create a world where people feel seen, understood, and celebrated.
The video’s director and crew were amazing. They knew exactly what they wanted, but they were also open to letting me bring my own style to the magic. We talked a lot about what each trick would mean and how it could fit into the visual story.
There were moments where I got to improvise and suggest ways to use magic that matched the lyrics or the mood. It felt like true collaboration. Everyone was working toward one shared goal: making "Red Wine Supernova" unforgettable.
For me, this project showed a new way that magic can live in the world. I’ve done live shows, festivals, corporate events—but this was something else. It was artistic, personal, and modern.
"Red Wine Supernova" proves that magic doesn’t have to stay on a stage. It can live in music, fashion, film, and more. As a female magician, I’m excited to explore more creative spaces where magic can tell stories and touch people emotionally.
Since "Red Wine Supernova" came out, I’ve heard from so many fans who said the video gave them chills or made them smile—or even cry. That means everything to me. It reminds me why I started doing magic in the first place: to connect with people and share something beautiful.
I don’t know what my next big project will be, but I do know I want to keep blending magic with other art forms. Whether it's more music videos, film, or something entirely new, I’m open to where the magic leads me.
Being the female magician in Chappell Roan’s "Red Wine Supernova" wasn’t just an amazing opportunity—it was a turning point. It reminded me that magic is powerful when it comes from a place of truth and connection.
To every artist out there dreaming of doing something different, I say: go for it. Blend your skills. Be bold. Try things that scare you a little. And to every girl who’s ever been told she couldn’t be a magician—I hope this video shows you that you absolutely can.
Thank you to Chappell Roan, the creative team, and everyone who believed in the vision of "Red Wine Supernova." This experience was pure magic—and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it.
