Yesterday, September 1st, Halsey was photographed arriving to Hotel Excelsior for the 82nd Venice International Film Festival in Italy. Her fiancé Avan Jogia was with her.

Halsey and Avan Jogia attend the 2025 amfAR Gala in Venice, Italy on August 31st, 2025. While there, Halsey bid $585,000 for a custom portrait of herself by filmmaker Julian Schnabel, the proceeds of which will be donated towards research for HIV and AIDS. “I own seven of his works already. He is my favorite living artist,” Halsey told Variety while she waited for a water taxi to leave the event. “As soon as I found out that it was a personalized commission, I knew I was going to bid all the way.”

Halsey has a personal connection to the charity work done by AmfAR. She was diagnosed in 2022 with the autoimmune disease lupus and a t-cell leukemia disorder — and those conditions, too, benefit from the research funded by AmfAR, she said. “It was a full circle moment. I had to make this come to life. So I’m feeling on top of the world.”

For now, she remains undecided on where she’ll display her new work of art. “I don’t know yet, but I’m hoping I’m going hang it for a long time,” she said. “I have a 4-year-old son, so I’m constantly thinking about my legacy. I know this will be a very important one.”

Halsey‘s fourth studio album, “If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power,” often abbreviated to IICHLIWP, celebrates its fourth birthday today, August 27th. The accompanying film of the same name, directed by Colin Tilley, was released a few days prior on August 25th. To celebrate the releases, I’ve finally uploaded stills, behind the scenes shots, and posters from the film to the gallery. If you’re looking for the album artwork, click here. And for behind the scenes of the album shoot, check here.

Halsey performed at Zürich Openair Festival in Zürich, Switzerland on August 23rd as part of the For My Last Trick Tour (or not, IDK!). Her new unreleased song “Carry the Weight” was on the setlist and was soundchecked but Halsey didn’t perform it.
