Halsey has become a highly famous singer in the industry these days, but she never forgets to give respect to those who inspired her.
Per Page Six,The singer-songwriter complimented Alanis Morrissette for being the inspiration for their "greatest f-k you" songs while playing at the Hollywood Bowl for the "We Can Survive" event in Los Angeles over the weekend.
Halsey, who uses she/they pronounced, explained, "[Alanis taught me] my whole life how to write the be f-k you songs of all time. I think without her f-k you songs, I probably wouldn't have written what was the biggest song of my career so far."
The 28-year-old singer started singing their 2018 song, "Without Me," telling the audience, "It's very Alanis-esque."
The song was released following Halsey's widely publicized breakup with rapper G-Eazy.
They dated G-Eazy for nearly a year after splitting in 2018 amid reports that the "No Limit" rapper cheated on them.
Halsey has since penned a number of appealing "f-k you" songs, including "Killing Boys," "You Should Be Sad," and "Nightmare."
Halsey also worked with Alanis on "Alanis' Interlude," a song about sexual and professional emancipation that was published in 2020 as part of the 48-year-old singer's album "Manic."
Alanis played the song with the duet on Saturday night during her headlining show, which also featured hits including "Ironic," "You Oughta Know," "Hand in My Pocket," "You Learn," and "Thank U."
The ninth annual "We Can Survive" concert is organized by Audacy in collaboration with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. It was designed to honor the power of bringing people and music together to enhance mental health awareness and raise suicide prevention awareness.
One Republic, Weezer, Tate McRae, and Garbage were among the other acts performing that night.

Halsey has also been open about their mental health difficulties in interviews and on social media throughout the years.
In September, the "Colors" singer admitted to experiencing "deep sadness," telling her millions of fans that she frequently wonders whether she picked the wrong life.
She said during that time, "I find that often there is a deep sadness inside me that no amount of worldly pleasure can touch, a loneliness, an emptiness."
Halsey said, " I often wonder if I chose the wrong life for myself. And the weight of it is suffocating. I'm sorry that melancholy has penetrated my art in a way that hasn't served a greater purpose other than my own self-loathing."
