In the chat, the ‘Lucky’ singer explained that the incident happened a few years ago while out with the executive and two of their male managers.“I mean, I guess it was quite a long time ago, but I was out and I was with this executive, like this really powerful executive who works in music in some capacity.

It was very just celebratory, and there was a lot of industry talk,” Halsey told host Alexandra Cooper. “I didn’t feel weird about it at all.

I never felt unsafe or anything.”Halsey explained that they had taken a photo with the executive and had asked to send it to him so he could send it to his niece.
