Halsey noted that the conversations even included discussion of the music video. “I sent her a shot-for-shot treatment of the music video just because I wanted to make sure I was totally nailing it,” Halsey revealed.

They explained, saying, “Like I didn’t even know she knew who I was. So every day I’m kind of just like looking around being like, ‘There’s a six-year-old girl in my heart that’s freaking out,’ you know?”
