Halsey Says She ‘Shared Everything’ With Britney Spears Leading Up to ‘Lucky’ Release

Halsey is reflecting on communicating closely with Britney Spears throughout the process of making her new single "Lucky."

Halsey attends world premiere of A24's "MAXXXINE"at TCL Chinese Theatre on June 24, 2024 in Hollywood, California. Of her decision to pay tribute to Spears — who personally approved the “Lucky” sample, Halsey previously revealed — the “Closer” artist tweeted, “I remember the first time I heard her sing lucky and it hitting me at such a young age that I had no idea what her life was really like.” However, after the music video went live, a statement went up on Spears’ X profile claiming she felt “harassed, violated and bullied” by the visual’s portrayal of her as “a superficial pop star with no heart or concern at all.” The message also noted that Spears was planning to pursue legal action against the “Without Me” artist.
