Halsey brands box office backlash “tabloid denim bulls—t,” backs crime flick
Interpolating the drama of a denim-clad debacle, Halsey steps into frame not just as a co-star of Americana but as a fierce apologist for cinema itself. The singer defends director Tony Tost’s crime thriller as it struggles at the box office, earning a modest $500,000 on debut, dragged in part by backlash to Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad campaign.
The controversy, steeped in accusations of outdated and tone-deaf imagery, triggers online calls for boycotts. Halsey dismisses it as “tabloid denim bulls—t,” urging audiences to separate the art from the feud. “Cinema comes first,” she insists.
