During her Back to Badlands Tour stop at The Anthem in Washington, D.C., on November 4, Halsey was filmed being groped by a concertgoer while performing “Is There Somewhere,” prompting security to swiftly intervene and remove the fan’s hand. The disturbing incident, captured on video and shared widely, sparked outrage among fans on social media who condemned the violation. “Respect Halsey and DO NOT touch her or anyone like this without their consent,” one fan wrote, while other fans chimed in by responding, “Have we not learned respect?” and commenting, “There’s no excuse for this.” Despite the unsettling moment, Halsey continued her performance uninterrupted, and has since carried on with her tour, with the U.S. leg set to conclude with a two-night stand in Denver on Wednesday and Thursday (November 12-13).
