Halsey has announced the "confessional concept album" 'The Great Impersonator'.
Halsey has released a trailer for her album The Great Impersonator
The 29-year-old singer – who uses she/they pronouns - released the trailer for their latest record on Tuesday (27.08.24) where they confess their fears it would be the "last one I ever made" after suffering from health issues including Lupus and a rare lymphoproliferative disorder.
In a teaser clip, Halsey says: "I really thought this album would be the last one I ever made."
The trailer features a series of clips where the 'You Should Be Sad' artist sports clothing and hairstyles from decades gone by – even cosplaying as David Bowie and Britney Spears – as they ponder what life would have been like if they had been a performer in a different era.
Halsey – who was born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane – said: "What if I debuted in the early 2000s? The 90s? The 80s? The 70s?"
The trailer includes snippets of unreleased music that capture the different decades in music.
They conclude: "If it all ended right now, is this a person you'd be proud to leave behind? Is it even you?"
Halsey paid homage to Britney Spears on their single 'Lucky' – which shares its name with Britney's 2000 single – and revealed that she "shared everything" with the 'Toxic' hitmaker after the pop icon deleted a social media post slamming the video for the song.
They told BBC Radio 1: "I shared everything with her every step of the way, down from like the first demo of the song. And I sent her like a shot for shot treatment of the music video, just because I wanted to make sure I was totally nailing it."
