Overview
- Rogers told Rosalía’s confessional segment at Madison Square Garden that she went on a date with a man who worked at The New York Times and later learned he was seeing someone else.
- She said the night included a drive in a vintage car, a late-night tour of the Times building and making out in the paper’s conference room and in the car.
- The account was delivered onstage and did not name the reporter or give a clear date, so the claim remains unverified and the timing of the incident is uncertain.
- Page Six published a follow-up on June 19 identifying Times writer Stephen Hiltner as the alleged man but described that identification as developing and noted a New York Times spokesperson declined to comment.
- The clip spread quickly online with fans urging Rogers to identify the man, and the episode has prompted discussion about reputational risk for journalists and how anonymous, performance-stage allegations should be handled.
