Halsey at Rock in Rio: remember how the singer left the internet to achieve success

oglobo13 September 2026 at 04:00

At 31 years old, Halsey is one of the main international attractions of the second weekend of Rock in Rio. The American singer took the Palco Mundo stage this Sunday (13), at 9:35 PM, before Twenty One Pilots, bringing to the Brazilian audience a career built outside the big stages and boosted by the internet.

Born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane in New Jersey, Halsey started writing songs in her teens. Before becoming famous, she published her work on social media and, in 2014, posted the song "Ghost" on SoundCloud.

The song caught the attention of record labels and opened the way for the artist's first professional contract, with the record label Astralwerks. In the same year, she released the EP "Room 93", marking the official start of her career in the music industry.

Why this matters

Halsey's performance at Rock in Rio represents an important moment for the artist's Brazilian fans, who will have the opportunity to see her live on the biggest stage in Latin America. The article also contextualizes the artist's relevance, who built her career starting from the independent publication of songs on the internet, a model that became common in the contemporary music industry.
