Halsey Attends First Red Carpet Since Revealing Lupus Diagnosis

Halsey is showing off her retro glam.

The 29-year-old pop star — who uses she/they pronouns — walked the red carpet for the Hollywood premiere of her new film MaXXXine at the TCL Chinese Theatre on Monday, June 24.

The A24 film premiere marked their first time attending a red carpet event since revealing her lupus diagnosis via social media on June 5. 

While on the red carpet, Halsey also posed with her MaXXXine costar Mia Goth.

The thriller marks the third film in the X franchise and features Goth, 30, as Maxine and the “Bad at Love” singer as Tabby. 

“In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks the starlets of Hollywood, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past,” the film's synopsis reads.

Halsey channeled her inner-Tabby on the red carpet, wearing a sparkling gold skirt set with a sleeveless, crop top and cutouts at her hips. She also wore big curly hair and a sultry cat eye. 

MaXXXine was announced at its prequel Pearl's world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival in September 2022, and will see Goth's character head to Hollywood for fame and fortune. Pearl is set before the first-released film in the series, X (2022), which leads into the events of MaXXXine.

A first-look photo was shared by A24 on Twitter on May 1, 2023, which showed Goth and Halsey walking down a Hollywood -

“Meet tabby ????????@a24 @maxxxinemovie - in theatres july 5th” the “Without Me” singer captioned a promo image of herself in a June 11 Instagram post.

A week prior on June 4, Halsey hinted that she was suffering from health struggles while promoting "The End" — the first single from her forthcoming fifth studio album. The next day, she detailed which conditions she had been privately battling in an Instagram post.

“I realize everyone is catching up with news I’ve held in for a very long time, and I wasn’t sure how much I wanted to share,” she wrote after thanking fans for their support. 

“In 2022, I was first diagnosed with Lupus SLE and then a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder,” she explained. “Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life.”

The “You Should Be Sad” singer continued, “After a rocky start, I slowly got everything under control with the help of amazing doctors. After 2 years, I’m feeling better and I’m more grateful than ever to have music to turn to.”

She concluded by letting supporters know she was ready to get back in front of the crowd, “where I belong.”
