Halsey Announces 2025 "For My Last Trick" Tour Alongside Bold Industry Stance
Halsey is gearing up for a highly anticipated return to the stage with her "For My Last Trick" Tour, set to kick off on May 10 in Concord, California. The tour will make several stops across North America, including a show at Hard Rock Live at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, on May 25.
"The Great Impersonator": A Bold New Era
The tour follows the release of Halsey's fifth studio album, "The Great Impersonator", which dropped in October 2024. The record, a conceptual exploration of identity, features the singer channeling pop icons like Britney Spears, Dolly Parton, David Bowie, Joni Mitchell, and Björk across 18 tracks.The album also delves into themes of life and mortality, coming after Halsey publicly shared her battle with lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. While the album received mixed reactions from critics, fans have largely embraced its ambitious and theatrical nature.
Halsey Defends Artists’ Rights in Music Industry Debate
Beyond the music, Halsey has been making headlines for her outspoken stance on artists' rights. She recently defended Chappell Roan after the rising pop star's Grammy speech about record labels paying artists a livable wage sparked controversy.Former music industry executive Jeff Rabhan dismissed Roan’s comments as "misguided," arguing that she lacked industry experience—despite Roan having nearly a decade-long career. In response, Halsey took to Instagram, stating:
"If you want to profit off of someone else's art, that artist should have the basic living means to feel safe enough to create that art."
Her comments resonated with many in the industry, reigniting discussions about fair compensation for musicians.
