Premiered 25 October 2025
If you found yourself on Halsey's Instagram in October 2024, you'd have a hard time finding Halsey anywhere.
Instead, you'd come face to face with Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen, Joni Mitchell and… oh, wait that IS Halsey! Fans have long marveled at the pop virtuoso's world building skills (who could forget the ornate, gothic scenery of 2021's 'If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power?'), but it feels like Halsey has taken the biggest creative swing of her career with 'The Great Impersonator.'
She labels it a “confessional concept album.”
As the October 25 release day approached, fans watched her inhabit a kaleidoscope of musical heroes.
That was only the beginning. We decided to take the nostalgic trip one step further with these Official Live Performances, seeking to answer the questions: “What if Halsey arrived in a different time?
What if she recorded in the 1970s, 80s, 90s or early 2000's?” So we built four interconnected stages reflective of each decade - with vintage outfits and instruments to match. We captured the action on 35mm film for that timeless feel. Leaning into personal authenticity, Halsey did her own makeup.
Team Vevo and Team Halsey's long history of collaboration allowed this to be one of the series' most ambitious shoots. The fun kicks off on album release day, and spills into the next week. Here's the details:
