« We stand in solidarity, and complete and total acceptance is the only ‘fantasy’ that I support. »
Halsey was seen performing on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Sunday night, but that doesn’t mean she fully supports the brand. The singer revealed she’d heard the building criticism of the brand after she filmed the performance, and made sure to declare she does not support their lack of inclusivity of transgender models, even as she appeared on their runway.
Halsey took to Instagram to post a message about her appearance on the show. It started by explaining she’d “adored” the show for most of her life, and walking among the models was a dream come true. She then dove into the comments.
“As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I have no tolerance for a lack of inclusivity, especially not one motivated by stereotype, » she wrote.
Halsey also gave options for supporting the LGBTQ+ community and spoke directly to her transgender fans: “If you are a trans person reading this, and these comments have made you feel alienated of invalidated, please know that you have allies.
