Halsey has announced that she regrets coming back to music after fans criticised her return.

In a post on her Tumblr page, the singer stated that she is unhappy with fans who have "stuck around to chime in occasionally with their opinion of how much they hate me or how awful I am".

Halsey released her new single and video Lucky last week.

"My own fans are hands down meaner to me than any other people on the planet," she wrote. "Not speaking for all of you, of course. But it used to be just a minority that were awful to me and now it seems like a majority."

After being diagnosed with lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in 2022, Halsey was excited to return to music. But the response she has received so far to Lucky has led her to regret that decision.

"It's hard to want to engage in a space that is completely devoid of any kindness, sympathy, patience," she shared.

"I don't know man. I almost lost my life... all I could think about was getting better so I could come back and be a part of THIS again, but I don't even know what this is anymore and I want to crawl in a hole and I regret coming back."

Lucky is the first single off her upcoming fifth album, which is currently without a release date. The song interjects Britney Spears' 2000 single of the same name.
