Halsey BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Halsey has taken center stage this past week with the highly anticipated kickoff of her global Back to Badlands Tour, marking the tenth anniversary of her groundbreaking debut album Badlands, as first reported by Billboard on October 14. The tour began with a sold-out show at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles, where fans were treated to a 30-song set featuring early hits from Badlands alongside fresh tracks and inventive live arrangements—think “Gasoline” as an opener, “The Lighthouse” with a country disco twist, and an orchestral “Young God.” According to Life & Style Mag, she reflected on her debut’s impact, saying “With Badlands, I think I succeeded in the way that I did because I didn’t know what it was like to fail yet.” Due to overwhelming demand, extra tour dates have been added in major cities across North America, Europe, and Australia, with shows scheduled into February 2026 and every leg sparking fervent social media chatter and long lines for new tour merch as announced by HalseyHQ.
Halsey’s social profiles have been electric, with posts on TikTok and Instagram giving fans an inside look at behind-the-scenes moments, including her tour outfit reveal and a deeply personal update on her health journey. In recent TikTok conversations, she candidly discussed balancing chemotherapy for lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, reciprocating encouragement with fans facing similar battles and shedding light on the realities behind her high-energy performances. Her genuine engagement continues to inspire fans, especially as she assures them her conditions are either managed or in remission, gratitude and resilience at the forefront.
A major media headline this week was Halsey’s historic announcement that she’ll headline the 2025–2026 Dubai Shopping Festival with her Dubai debut at Coca-Cola Arena this December, a show being tipped as one of the biggest music events of the winter by the Khaleej Times. The global press is highlighting not just her performance streak but her multi-faceted influence across music, literature, and beauty, underscored by the recent release of the BADLANDS: Decade Edition Anthology, which revisits her debut era with remastered sound and new visuals.
On stage at Hollywood Forever, Halsey surprised the crowd by debuting the live performance of “Tokyo Narita (freestyle)” and, on night three, by singing Johnny Cash’s “I Walk the Line” live for the first time, moves that grabbed attention from music insiders and fans alike and immediately circulated on TikTok and X. Merchandise for the tour is flying, original Badlands passports are now early-entry golden tickets, and the platinum star’s social mentions have soared. Variety and The Guardian have both noted that the tour and anthology rollout are poised to cement Halsey’s legacy as one of her generation’s definitive voices, as her resilience and innovation radiate from every stage and every update. No significant controversies or unconfirmed rumors have surfaced during this period, with all eyes staying fixed on her artistry, advocacy, and the spectacle of Badlands forever.
