The singer has called out people for leaving her show over queer songs
Halsey has a message for people protesting her concerts using “anti-LGBT religious propaganda.”
The 23-year-old pop star, who identifies as bisexual, called out protesters on Twitter.
“people bring anti-LGBT religious propaganda to my concerts a lot and itās like, I feel like Iāve done enough good in the world that Godās gonna forgive me for eating some pussy,” Halsey tweeted.

She also acknowledged people who leave the show when she performsĀ “Strangers,” a duet with fellow bisexual singer Lauren Jauregui.
I am happy when they leave. My show is a safe place. Plus theyāre out numbered lol https://t.co/MneP4Klrg9

Halsey has called out people for leaving her shows because of her LGBT content before. During a concert in October, she called her shows “a safe space” and herself “a queer girl who loves her queer fans.”
