Tuesday was quite a day for Halsey whose first book of poetry was officially published.
I Would Leave Me If I Could is a collection of poems about, she explained, ‘things I ruminate on, fixate, miss, cry, regret, re-live and overcome.’
She shared: ‘I love being a weird pop star. But I’ll always be a writer first and foremost.’
She posted images to her Instagram from inside a book store as she and a couple of pals held up copies of the poetry book.

In a new interview with Cosmopolitan, the New Jersey native – born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane – talks about expanding her portfolio, branching out from music into acting and writing.
She’s starring with Euphoria’s Sydney Sweeney in The Player’s Table, a small screen adaptation of Jessica Goodman’s They Wish They Were Us and says she’s also busy creating film and TV ideas.
And she explains that all of this has been possible because at an early stage she decided to change her name.
‘I think I had the foresight to know that being me wasn’t enough. I had to become somebody completely different,’ she told Cosmopolitan.
‘At the time, I felt that Ashley didn’t deserve to be famous and successful because she wasn’t that special, but if I made Halsey, maybe she could be.’
She said that making the change gave her ‘the opportunity to create a new persona that wasn’t bound by the expectations I had for myself or the limitations that others placed on me because of my upbringing or my socioeconomic situation.’
She added: ‘I created a person, and she could do everything.’
