Halsey reacts to JK Rowking's controversial tweets about trans people

Singer Halsey has called out Harry Potter creator JK Rowling for her controversial tweets about trans people.

In a string of tweets on June 6, the British author accused trans people and trans allies of "erasing the lived reality of women".

Taking to Twitter, Halsey wrote, "Imagine writing a generation defining series about a youth uprisal (sic) that defeats a tyrannical monster motivated by the preservation of 'pure blood' and looking at THIS time in the world and going 'hmm...yep. I’m gonna invalidate trans people.'”

Other celebrities who have condemned Rowling over her tweets included Sarah Paulson, Jameela Jamil, Munroe Bergdorf and Harry Potter actress Katie Leung
