most surreal moment

what has been your most surreal moment since you entered the music industry?

Halsey: "My entire life! So many of the ones I want to say, I'm not allowed to talk about yet, which sucks because I want to tell you! Probably the one year anniversary of me signing my record deal. I was playing an arena in Canada. I just walked out on stage, and thought literally one year ago, I owed my manager thousands of dollars because I couldn't even afford a Starbucks coffee. I was living out of a duffel bag. I didn't have a laptop. I didn't have anything. I had a Victorias Secret grey duffel bag and I would drag it around New York and New Jersey. He would pay for my train tickets when I would go to and from the city, and we'd take label meetings, and I'd sleep at his parents house. Then one year later I have an apartment in L.A. and I'm on stage in an arena."

"And then you got to pay him back!"

Halsey: "The memo on the check was 'I Love You' in purple pen. So that was pretty surreal."
