In case you needed an update, Halsey and Lauren Jauregui are far from strangers. The singers, who both openly identify as bisexual, reunited to perform their 2017 hit, "Strangers," for the first time in 7 years during Halsey's For My Last Trick Tour stop at Chicago's Huntington Bank Pavilion on June 17. As proven by clips of their performance, there is truly no better way to celebrate Pride month—and, of course, fans went wild on social media once they surfaced. "ARE U JOKING," one fan wrote, while another added, "Can't believe i'd live to see the day that they would sing this live together again."

The song, which details the push-and-pull of a shifty relationship dynamic between two women, became an instant classic in the LGBTQ+ community when it was released. At the time, Halsey shared why she tapped Lauren for the track during an interview onThe Zach Sang Show, saying, "Lauren is a friend of mine and she is openly bisexual, and so am I. Our fans, really this past year, have just really expressed so much support and so much love and indication that they relate to us and that they are happy to us be outspoken about it." "I just love that Lauren and I are two women who have a mainstream pop presence doing a love song for the LGBT community," Halsey said at the time. "It's rare to see it from a girl's perspective." The About-Face founder, who's non-binary and uses both she/her and they/them pronouns, also revealed that "Strangers" was the first song in which she openly used female pronouns. "It is the first song that I ever wrote where I openly used female pronouns and I have songs that are about women that I have been with but I was 19 and I tried to keep [my debut album]Badlandsgender neutral," she said. She continued, "I was thinking to myself, 'If I want this song to be believable, it needs to be real.' So I'm not going to put a girl on this song to sing who's straight. I'm just not going to do it. So I reached out to Lauren, she came in and cut the vocal and it sounds awesome." We can fully confirm it still holds up all these years later.
