Halsey Net Worth (2020) ?
What Is Halsey's Net Worth?
Halsey's non-stage name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane. She is an American musician and songwriter from Clark, New Jersey. Like many modern musicians, Halsey began her career from a very humble place at the Halsey Street subway station in Brooklyn- a borough in New York City, New York.
She must have special memories of that subway stop because she took it on as her stage name and released her first album under the name in 2014. Frangipane was born in September of 1994 in New Jersey to a bi-racial couple. Her mom is of Italian descent and her father is African-American. Halsey has two brothers.
Ashley got serious about music at the age of 14 when she started to learn to play the guitar. She had plans to be a Fine Arts major but her finances were limited and she settled for a community college focusing on creative writing. The focus on the written word led to a natural evolution to writing songs.
YouTube and Halsey
A few years before she released her debut album (Badlands) Halsey posted cover songs on the YouTube platform. Frangipane's 'The Haylor Song' made serious waves in 2012. The tune was a parody of Taylor Swift's 'I Knew You Were Trouble'. Swift's song was autobiographical and documented her relationship with English musician, Harry Styles. Halsey's cover garnered attention from all over the globe.
Halsey's song 'Ghost' was uploaded on SoundCloud and became a big hit sending her listenership to enormous proportions.
The music industry paid attention to her success and her intense performances. A myriad of recording labels wanted to work with her. Halsey signed with a US-based record label that focuses mainly on electronic and dance music, Astralwerks.
2014 was a big year for Halsey. Her extended play was warmly received by audiences and critics alike. Her song 'Room 93' continues to be played by enormous audiences on both the SoundCloud and YouTube platforms.
'Badlands' Halsey's debut album was released in 2015. She gave television interviews on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' and 'Last Call with Carson Daly.'

Inspirational Halsey on Social Media
Halsey is unlike a lot of celebrities because she offers her followers a more intimate look at her life, her political views, her mental struggles, and her hard-won successes. It is a breeze of uniqueness in a sea of monotony.
It seems Halsey lives pretty humbly. She does not generally buy high ticket items and flaunt them on her social media accounts. The chronicle of her life is more about the rough patches like when she suffered through a miscarriage shortly before a concert, but she powered through it like a professional.
Success is not defined by a single element. Halsey depicts her success as s collection of hard choices and little sleep.
$12 Million Dollars Worth Of Freedom
Halsey didn't always live the good life. There was a period when she was homeless. She would hop from one Lower East Side basements belonging to her ex-boyfriend's stoner buddies.
She was taunted in high school. A group of kids broke into her locker and stole a private nude (for her boyfriend) and passed it around the school calling her a slut and other sex-shaming insults.
Before the Vivo LIFT show, Halsey had a miscarriage in her hotel room. The hardworking musician went on through the show wearing an adult diaper and taking pain killers.
Halsey proves that fame doesn't happen overnight and success sometimes means sacrifice and pain, but persevering means a growing net worth of $12 million!
