Halsey cops major backlash from her performance on 'The Voice'

She's hit back calling it 'homophobic'. - by Bianca M

Halsey had the pleasure of performing on the season finale of The Voice, in US, singing her hit song "Without Me" alongside dancer Jade Chynoweth.

The pair performed in coordinating white crop tops and shorts, covered in paint, and they had a GREAT connection throughout the entire thing, which the audience seemed to love.

However, after her performance some people took to Twitter to express their distaste with it, calling it "inappropriate" for live television because the dance was intimate and between two women.

Halsey has since responded to the backlash, calling out the commenters for being homophobic.
