- Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers revealed during Rosalía’s Lux Tour stop in New York City that she went on a date with a New York Times journalist who already had a girlfriend.
- Rogers shared the story in a confession booth segment, detailing how the journalist picked her up in a vintage car and gave her a private, late-night tour of the New York Times building.
- She recounted making out with him in a conference room and in the car, and he later asked to come up to her apartment, which she declined.
- The morning after the date, Rogers excitedly told her friends about the man, only to discover from one friend that he was her friend’s boyfriend.
- Rogers confronted the journalist, who asked to meet, but she rejected his request, calling him a ‘loser’ and joking that ‘you just can’t trust a journalist.’
