Halsey came to Chappell Roan's defense after The Hollywood Reporter published a scathing takedown of her Grammy Awards acceptance speech. On Sunday night, Chappell Roan called out the music industry's treatment of young artists when she took the podium for her Best New Artist win.

A Hollywood Reporter column by former music industry exec Jeff Rabhan said Roan's call for better healthcare & pay for artists was "a hackneyed and plagiarized script."

Halsey shared a lengthy message defending Chappell Roan ’s Grammy s speech on more rights for emerging artists. The Pink Pony Club singer, 26, used her speech to highlight some of the glaring issues present within the music industry while accepting the gong for best new artist.
