The recent release of the Epstein Files has led to significant repercussions in the entertainment industry, most notably with singer-songwriter Chappell Roan's departure from the Wasserman talent agency. The files, disclosed under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA), reveal that Casey Wasserman, CEO of the agency and chairman of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, exchanged flirtatious emails with Ghislaine Maxwell in 2003. Maxwell, a close associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022 for her involvement in a sex trafficking scheme. Roan, in an Instagram post, stated, 'No artist, agent or employee should be expected to defend or overlook actions that conflict so deeply with our own moral values' (The Frontier Post, February 10, 2026). Her decision underscores a broader demand for ethical accountability in the industry, as she emphasized that 'artists deserve representation that aligns with their values' (Yahoo News, February 10, 2026).
