Halsey reveals ‘powerful’ music exec looked through their nude photos without consent: ‘I was just frozen’

Halsey recalled a “powerful” music executive looking through their nude photos without their consent on Wednesday’s episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast.

“I had a really strange situation a couple years ago,” the singer — who uses she/they pronouns —said.

“I guess it was quite a long time ago, but I was out and I was with this executive, this really powerful executive who works in music in some capacity.”

The privacy violation occurred when the exec asked if Halsey would take a photo with him for his niece. The “Without Me” hitmaker obliged, but the situation took a turn for the worse after she allowed him to hold their phone.

“I took a selfie of the two of us and I handed him my phone and I was like, ‘Text it to yourself. I have to pee,'” Halsey recalled.

“And then I went to the bathroom and when I came back, he handed me my phone like this,” she continued, mimicking putting an imaginary phone down without showing the screen.

“And I saw he was going through my nudes on my phone.”

The uncomfortable situation left the “Bad at Love” singer unsure of what to do next.

“I was just frozen. I was like, ‘Did I just imagine that? Was that an accident? Did the phone scroll up? What the heck just happened?'” Halsey said.

“And then I was like, ‘Did he text them to himself and then delete the messages? I don’t even know where these are now.'”

“I’m in this situation where I have so much power,” she continued. “I have a bodyguard and I have, you know, all the leverage in the world and I’m in this exclusive space in this VIP, I’ve reached the ranks of like, ‘Oh, I am protected or whatever else it may be.’ And then this invasive thing just happens on a whim.”

Halsey — who recently got engaged to Avan Gogia — admitted the “invasive” situation took them from feeling like “one of the big players” to feeling a new low.

“In that moment, I was like, ‘You’re nothing. You’re nothing. You’ll always be nothing. You’re still just that f–king girl who’s getting taken advantage of, or like men are talking about you behind your back, or you’re some sort of like, collateral.’ … It was so demoralizing,” she said.

“So many worse things have happened to me than that, but that one stuck out for some reason because it was so nonchalant.”
