Halsey, whose real name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, grew up in Edison, New Jersey, and gained initial recognition through her self-uploaded music on social media platforms. She utilized SoundCloud as a powerful tool to share her creative talents, with her self-released song “Ghost” gaining significant attention online, ultimately leading her to secure a record deal with Astralwerks in 2014. This online grassroots approach helped establish her initial fan base and set the stage for her rapid ascent in the music industry.
In 2015, Halsey released her debut studio album, Badlands, which quickly propelled her into mainstream success. The album featured successful singles like “New Americana” and “Colors,” earning critical acclaim for its alternative pop sound and emotionally charged lyrics. Badlands achieved platinum certification and helped establish Halsey as a distinctive voice in contemporary music.
Her second album, Hopeless Fountain Kingdom, released in 2017, further cemented her status as a major artist. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, propelled by hit singles such as “Now or Never” and “Bad at Love,” with the latter becoming a significant radio hit. Halsey’s third studio album, Manic (2020), displayed her versatility and included the massive global hit “Without Me,” which became her first number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100.
Throughout her career, Halsey has received numerous accolades, reflecting her artistic impact and commercial success. She has been nominated multiple times at major awards ceremonies, including the Grammy Awards, American Music Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and Billboard Music Awards. Notably, she received recognition at the American Music Awards for “Without Me,” highlighting her growing influence in the music industry.
Fans and critics alike celebrate Halsey for her candid approach to songwriting and her ability to authentically explore themes such as mental health, identity, and personal struggles. Her willingness to openly discuss her bipolar disorder and experiences with endometriosis has further endeared her to a diverse audience, appreciating her openness and vulnerability both in music and in public discourse.
Outside of music, Halsey is actively engaged in several charitable endeavors and advocacy campaigns. She has consistently used her platform to support social issues including LGBTQ+ rights, mental health awareness, and women’s reproductive health. Notably, she participated in the Women’s March in 2017 and has contributed to fundraising initiatives for various charities dedicated to social justice and health causes.
