Pop star Halsey — who is currently expecting her first child — quietly updated her social media bio to change her pronouns to “she/they,” saying her pregnancy has “leveled [her] perception of gender entirely.”
Fans who took notice to Halsey’s pronoun change expressed their approval and excitement on social media, with one stating the move “means so fucking much to me because I’ve been struggling with my gender identity.”

Halsey, seemingly acknowledging her fans’ support of her change in pronouns, wrote “Thank you” next to a heart on her Instagram story.
The pro-abortion pop star also recently revealed she is pregnant, and penned a message affirming the humanity of her unborn child, writing of her baby on Instagram, “I love this mini human already!”
Screenwriter Alev Aydin is reported to be the singer’s new boyfriend and father to her unborn child.
“I’ve been thinking lots about my body. it’s strange to watch yourself change so quickly,” Halsey wrote in an Instagram post last month. “I thought pregnancy would give me very strong, binary feelings about ‘womanhood’ but truly it has leveled my perception of gender entirely.”
“My sensitivity to my body has made me hyper aware of my humanness and that’s all,” she added. “Doing a remarkable thing. And it’s grand. I hope the feeling lasts.”
