Halsey Gets Spooked

Ellen DeGeneres got Halsey to confirm that Evan Peters is her boyfriend by scaring her half to death on her talk show.

Ellen distracted Halsey by putting up a photo of Halsey and the American Horror Story actor dressed as Sonny and Cher for Halloween. As she put Halsey on the spot by asking about the “Sonny” in the photo, someone wearing a Cher wig jumped out of the side table next to Halsey. After screaming and clutching her chest, Halsey said, “You distracted me with the boyfriend question. I wasn’t ready.”

She added, “I don’t know what’s scarier though…having to talk about my boyfriend on TV or having that happen.”

It marked the first time Halsey has referred to Evan as her boyfriend. The two were first spotted together in September, following Halsey’s split from Yungblud.

Halsey also performed her new song “Graveyard” on Ellen and became the first artist to use augmented reality on the show.

“Graveyard” appears on Halsey’s upcoming third LP, Manic, out January 17th. The singer previously issued a traditional video and time-lapse visualizer for the track, which follows the singles “Clementine” and “Without Me.”
