The recent mom also pulled double duty as host and musical guest in 2019, becoming the 38th entertainer to handle dual roles.
In August the singer released her third studio album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power in August. Produced by Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, the full length chronicles the beauty and pain of motherhood. “The idea that me as a sexual being and my body as a vessel and gift to my child are two concepts that can co-exist peacefully and powerfully,” they said of the record on Instagram.
Supporting the recent LP, Halsey shared an hour-long IMAX movie, which grossed nearly $1 million at the box office during its limited theatrical release in August. Described as an “evocative, horror-tinged fairytale, the concept film ” will be available to stream via HBO Max come October 7.
