Fantano Defends Review in Halsey Twitter Clash Over The Great Impersonator
Music critic Anthony Fantano publicly defends himself after Halsey quotes his 2024 YouTube review of The Great Impersonator, insisting his critique focused on the writing and not her illness or misogyny; Halsey branded him a 'raised-by-4chan edgelord bully' and attacked his approach, while Fantano tells Variety he’s not the devil and highlights his decade-long impact and support for women, describing the online exchange as part of the broader harassment surrounding reviews.
