Halsey Deletes Tweet Mistakenly Asking for One World Trade Center to 'Collapse': 'Clearly a Misunderstanding'
Halsey wrote the tweet after a middling review of her new album 'Manic.'
Halsey has cleared up a questionable comment she made on Twitter.
Earlier this week, Pitchfork published its review of the singer’s new album, Manic. “Too much of this album sounds like the amorphous pop that you might associate with a miserable Lyft ride,” the publication’s tweet said about the project, which it gave a 6.5 out of 10.
Halsey presumably saw the review and clapped back, writing, “Can the basement that they run p*tchfork out of just collapse already,” E! News reports. The tweet has since been deleted.
While it may have sounded like a regular diss, it was later pointed out that the Pitchfork offices are in the One World Trade Center building in New York.
“Losing my mind thinking about the person on Halsey's team who had to tell her she just called for the collapse of One World Trade,” NBC News reporter Ben Kesslen wrote. Halsey saw that she made a mistake and deleted her tweet.
She then quote-tweeted Kesslen and wrote, “ABSOLUTELY deleted it upon realizing this. Was just trying to make a joke! Intended zero harm. Just figured I could poke at them back with the same aloof passive aggression they poke at artists with! Clearly a misunderstanding.” However, Halsey has since deleted the apology as well. Of course, people took notice of the singer's blunder.
