Halsey has revealed that her upcoming album will be a concept album about her life and career, called "The Great Impersonator." The pop star shared a series of video clips — from behind-the-scenes glimpses of her in the studio to clips of her in David Bowie and Britney Spears cosplay — with an introspective narration that begins with her confession: "I honestly thought this album was going to be the last one I would ever make."
Earlier this year, Halsey released the album cycle’s first single, an emotional tune called “The End.” On the track, Halsey said she felt “lucky to be alive” after being diagnosed with lupus SLE (an autoimmune disease that can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain and other organs, according to the National Library of Medicine) and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in 2022.
“I really thought this album would be the last one I would ever make,” Halsey says in the trailer for “The Great Impersonator.”
