“Nightmare” singer Halsey recently credited songwriter Alanis Morissette for teaching her how to write an amazing “f*ck you” song. The artist was in a relationship with Turkish American director Alev Aydin and welcomed a son last year.
Before her current relationship, Halsey was famously linked to “Good Life” rapper G-Eazy. The duo was spotted together several times and dated for about a year before calling it quits in July 2018. He released “Without Me” after the breakup and several other “f*ck you” songs.
During the ninth annual “We Can Survive” concert on Saturday, Halsey credited Morissette with helping her perfect her songwriting skills. The duo collaborated on a track in 2020 and performed together in Saturday’s concert.

The hit song was released in 2018, shortly after the artist and her then-boyfriend, G-Eazy, broke up. “Without Me” has lyrics like “You know I’m the one who put you there / Name in the sky / Does it ever get lonely?”

And it’s a privilege, honestly, to speak for those who don’t get the kind of platform that we have.”
