Halsey Reveals That She Had A Miscarriage On Tour Last Year

Halsey got up close and personal in a recent interview with Rolling Stone. In the piece, the 21-year-old revealed that she got pregnant while on tour last year – a moment that she thought was going to end her career.

“What happens? Do I lose my record deal,” she said, rattling off questions that were going off in her mind. “Do I lose everything? Or do I keep [the pregnancy]? What are the fans going to think? What are the moms going to think? What is the Midwest going to think? What’s fucking everyone going to think?”

At the time, the “Colors” singer’s main priority was her career. In fact, hours after having suffered the miscarriage, she did a Vevo LIFT performance in adult diapers.

“It’s the angriest performance that I’ve ever done in my life,” she said. “That was the moment of my life where I thought to myself, ‘I don’t feel like a fucking human being anymore.’ This thing, this music, Halsey, whatever it is that I’m doing, took precedence and priority over every decision that I made regarding this entire situation from the moment I found out until the moment it went wrong. I walked offstage and went into the parking lot and just started throwing up.”

Ultimately though, this traumatic experience caused her to change her life around.

“I beat myself up for it because I think that the reason it happened is just the lifestyle I was living,” she revealed. “I wasn’t drinking. I wasn’t doing drugs. I was fucking overworked – in the hospital every couple of weeks because I was dehydrated, needing bags of IVs brought to my greenroom. I was anemic, I was fainting. My body just broke the fuck down.”
