If you’re a fan of Halsey, you’re living with the rollout of her latest project, The Great Impersonator. The singer’s album, a meaningful one that came amid battling illness and balancing that with motherhood and career, is due for release on Oct. 25. And with it comes the many stars Halsey impersonates.
In the lead-up to the release of her fifth studio album—an 18-track project—Halsey has released album art in which she imitates a great cover or photo of an artist she was influenced by. One artist inspires each track, and Halsey does her best to match them as closely as possible in her photos.
So far, she has shared looks channeling Dolly Parton for the track “Hometown,” PJ Harvey for “Dog Years,” Kate Bush for “I Never Loved You,” Cher for “Letter to God,” David Bowie for “Darwinism,” Amy Lee of Evanescence for “Lonely Is the Muse,” Dolores O’Riordan of the Cranberries for “Ego,” and Stevie Nicks for “Panic Attack.”
A lot of people have admired the creative effort, especially since learning that Halsey has been doing all her own makeup looks.
