After a long break she took from her singing career due to some serious health issues Halsey has finally released her new single ‘Lucky’ which was a much awaited one on 26th July. This single was inspired by Britney Spears’s single ‘Lucky’ of 2000. At first, a post popped up on social media on Britney’s account blasting Halsey regarding her new single, saying, ‘For obvious reasons, I’m very upset about the Halsey video, I feel harassed, violated and bullied. I didn’t know an artist like her and someone I looked up to and admired would illustrate me in such an ignorant way by tailoring me as a superficial pop star with no heart or concern at all. I have my own health problems which is why I took down my IG account yesterday. I will definitely be putting it back up now to show I CARE. I’m speaking with my lawyers today to see what can be done on this matter. It feels illegal and down right cruel.’ But later she deleted the post claiming it was not her who had posted it using Spears’ account, also adding that she loves Halsey.
After this incident, when everything started going back to normal, Halsey herself posted a lengthy note on Tumblr expressing her regrets about coming back and resuming her music career after her break in 2022 as she was diagnosed with Lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, saying, ‘My own fans are hands down meaner to me than any other people on the planet. Not speaking for all of you, of course. But it used to be just a minority that were awful to me and now it seems like a majority have only stuck around to chime in occasionally with their opinion of how much they hate me or how awful I am. It’s hard to want to engage in a space that is completely devoid of any kindness, sympathy, patience; or to be honest human decency. Especially after years of hiding from the interactions for fear that this EXACT thing would happen. I don’t know man. I almost lost my life. I am not gonna do anything that doesn’t make me happy anymore. I can’t spiritually afford it.’
The ‘Without Me’ singer continued by saying ‘When I got sick all I could think about was getting better so I could come back and be a part of THIS again, but I don’t even know what *this* is anymore and I want to crawl in a hole and I regret coming back.’ The video of ‘Lucky’ speaks about the much darker side of the Hollywood glitz and glam where a young girl is seen to be idolizing the artist while she struggles with her health issues and relationship. Although it is not clear, as to whom the response by the ‘Bad At Love’ singer was directed to specifically.
