Halsey Opens Up About Updating Pronouns on Social Media
The pop singer says using both she and they pronouns feels the most authentic to them!
Pop superstar Halsey is opening up about publicly sharing their updated pronouns with their fans.
Earlier this month, the 26-year old singer-songwriter and parent-to-be quietly and casually updated both their Twitter and Instagram bios to include their pronouns, which are she and they. After many of their fans took notice and showed them major love, they took to Instagram stories to share a simple thank you message and express gratitude for the support they've received so far!
It may seem like just a simple act, but Halsey (who is one of pop music's biggest names at the moment) has a huge, worldwide platform, and them being so open and honest about their gender identity is still something that can have a huge impact on many people who want to feel represented and seen.
\u201ci hope halsey changing their pronouns gives others the confidence to express what also makes them feel comfortable. it\u2019s okay to not fit into the categories society puts you in \ud83d\udc9b\u201d— J\ud83e\udd40 (@J\ud83e\udd40) 1615664167
And now, taking to Instagram stories once again, they're opening up even more and thanking fans for the continued love and support!
"For those asking [regarding] my updated IG bio, I am happy with either pronouns," the "Without You" singer wrote. "The inclusion of 'they,' in addition to 'she,' feels most authentic to me."
They continued:
"If you know me at all you know what it means to me to express this outwardly. Thanks for being the best."
