Halsey Fans Outraged as Pop Star Groped Onstage in DC Concert

Halsey’s backside was grabbed during a recent fans and now her fans are hitting back amid a worrying trend of concertgoers not keeping their hands to themselves like Billie Eilish being grabbed and dragged to the ground by a fan last month.

The 31-year-old pop star – born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane – performed at The Anthem in Washington DC on Tuesday when one of her fans reached up her leather skirt and groped her behind.

 

The star – who goes by she/they pronouns – was performing her track Is There Somewhere when she was groped midperformance in a video shared on X (formally Twitter).

The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Halsey for comment and has yet to hear back. 

The still unidentified fan could be seen putting their hand on the singer’s upper thigh before brazenly slipping it under her skirt to touch her butt.

The fan had their hand their for a few seconds before a gloved hand – seemingly security – caught wind of it and pushed the concertgoer’s hand off the star.

The disturbing close-up shot was filmed from behind the perpetrator and seemed like it took way too long for any action to come as the incident happened in front of hundreds of fans.

Halsey seemed to be completely in the moment as they did not seem to notice what had occurred and proceeded to perform uninterrupted. 

The star wore a sleeveless, lacy neon yellow top along with matching stockings and the aforementioned leather skirt for the performance.

The disturbing footage has made its way around the internet as Halsey fans expressed their outrage.

One Halsey fan account on X shared the video and wrote: ‘I can’t even believe i have to say this. 

‘Respect Halsey and DO NOT touch her or anyone like this without their consent. You people are unbelievable. #BackToBadlands’

One user replied: ‘ewwww why r ppl doing this ?? have we not learned respect , there’s no excuse for this’

Another commenter seemingly found the social media account of the alleged groper and wrote: ‘her excuse was “she looked like she was going to fall”. smh. she changed her user/picture/etc. anyone who follows her & reposts this about her being called out, she will soft block.’

The same Halsey fan went on to claim: ‘also she was confronted after concert, she was told to move her hand by fans as well!’   

This seems to be a worrying trend among fans and artists as just last month, Billie Eilish was violently grabbed by a fan during her concert in Miami  — sending shockwaves through the sold-out crowd.

The frightening moment unfolded just after the 23-year-old Grammy winner stepped off stage while kicking off the North American leg of her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour.

In a now-viral video, the powerhouse performer is seen walking along the barricade, smiling and giving high-fives to excited fans — until one suddenly latches onto her arm and yanks her toward the crowd. 

Billie crashes to the ground as screams erupt from the audience.

Security immediately rushes in, forcing the crowd back, while Billie bounces up within seconds, flipping her hair defiantly before continuing her walk as if nothing happened.

In another clip from a different angle, it appears a male fan was the one who grabbed the singer — before a security guard forcefully shoved him back into the crowd. 

Meanwhile, It has not been the easiest week for Halsey as she revealed on Monday that she suffered a ‘minor medical emergency’ in a post to her Instagram Stories.

The Without Me vocalist said that she was being treated by medical professionals in an emergency room until 6 a.m. local time, but was prepared to perform at MGM Music Hall on Monday.

‘Boston I’m gonna be honest with ya, after the show last night I was in the ER till 6 this morning,’ the Grammy-nominated artist told more than 30 million followers. ‘I am A-Okay now and ready to rock tonight!’

The Edison, New Jersey-born entertainer, whose full name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, told concertgoers, ‘If I’m pacing myself, that’s why.’

Halsey subsequently praised medical staff at Mass General as ‘the absolute best’ and said she was ‘so so grateful’ to be treated by them.

‘Huge shout out to Mass General and Dr Kian, Dr Victoria and my nurses Carolyn and Alicia for being the absolute best team I’ve ever met,’ Halsey wrote. 

She continued, ‘And I second that with regard to the imaging staff, transport team, and patient relations!!’

The resilient musical artist ended the post by declaring, ‘LETS ROCK TONIGHT!’ 

Halsey did not go into specific detail about the ailment that required immediate medical attention, though she has been past candidate about her health battles.

WHAT IS LUPUS?

What is lupus?

It is one of the chronic autoimmune conditions, where the body makes antibodies against itself and starts to attack it. Lupus – Systemic Lupus Erythematotsus (SLE) – has a range of severity. Some sufferers will have only mild problems, others have life-threatening organ damage to the heart and the kidneys.

What are the symptoms?

Tiredness, joint pains and muscle aches. A common first symptom is joint stiffness, particularly in the mornings. Skin and hair problems are a major feature of SLE – a rash in the shape of a butterfly over the cheeks and nose is common, as is hair loss and sensitivity to the sun. Other problems include depression and lung and heart disease, as well as kidney inflammation.

What can it be mistaken for?

It is often mistaken for other joint problems such as rheumatoid arthritis which is also characterised by morning joint stiffness. It can also be misdiagnosed as a skin or blood disease.

How is it diagnosed?

If your GP suspects SLE they will request a blood test. The specific antibodies that attack the body can be measured in the blood. The diagnosis is made when there is the combination of typical symptoms and high antibodies.

Who is at risk?

SLE is ten times more common in women than men and usually develops between the ages 12 and 25.

What is the treatment?

Controlling the symptoms, as there is no cure, using anti-inflammatories and steroid tablets in more severe cases. 

In 2022, the singer revealed that she he had been diagnosed with Lupus SLE and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.

Halsey in September said she completed a chemotherapy treatment prior to embarking on her Back to Badlands tour in October.

She said in a TikTok clip at the time: ‘I just wanted to give you a speed round of updates … just did another few sessions of chemo … had a new port placed.

‘We just put the Back to Badlands show together, and it’s going to be unbelievable; so amazing. My birthday’s in a couple of days. I’m so busy, I haven’t even thought about it at all.’
