Over the weekend, singer Halsey shared a selfie on Instagram that showed a medical port on their chest, along with a carousel of other pictures from their For My Last Trick tour.
Produced by Live Nation, the 32-city tour kicked off on May 10 in California and will include stops across the U.S. and Canada.
The "Colors" singer wrote in the caption:
“Evidence that I still exist when the show ends. 90s mom haircut loading 🌈”
The pop star (who uses she/they pronouns) was diagnosed in 2022 with lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, and shared that news with fans last summer.
In the 2024 post, Halsey explained:
"In 2022, I was first diagnosed with Lupus SLE and then a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life."
"After a rocky start, I slowly got everything under control with the help of amazing doctors. After 2 years, I’m feeling better and I’m more grateful than ever to have music to turn to."
"I can’t wait to get back where I belong: With you all 🤍 Singing and screaming my heart out."
According to Healthline, Lymphoproliferative disorders are a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled production of white blood cells called lymphocytes. T-cell disorders include leukemia and lymphoma.
This is not Halsey's first health issue. Halsey has been very forthcoming about being diagnosed and treated for bipolar disorder, endometriosis, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, and POTS.
Fans offered support, and appreciated that Halsey didn't hide the port.

Some commenters were rude, but fans had Halsey's back.
The current tour will wrap up in early July.
