"I always said I'd be buried in this wig, figured I probably should be."

In her interview with Vogue, dated July 2, 2025, Halsey explained the concept behind her recent tour. She reportedly took inspiration from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland for the sets, makeup, and costumes. The tour featured the pop star stumbling down a rabbit hole and entering new worlds, akin to the original story.

During the same interview, Halsey mentioned that she worked with multiple Broadway creatives to bring her practical sets to life, continuing that she focused more on physical sets than digital visuals. The singer reportedly performed a different setlist each night and unveiled two new unreleased songs to her fans during some shows.

Speaking about touring, the Nightmare singer shared that the entire experience was similar to a "big lovey summer camp vacation," adding that the band, crew, and dancers all hung out and joked around. She also called the tour her "most exciting and challenging" one yet, touching on her recent health issues.

“I’ve just been so overwhelmingly grateful every single night. I didn’t know if I was ever going to get the chance to tour again. Being healthy, and feeling strong in my body every night, and playing songs from the past 10 years of my career, is such a surreal experience,” the singer said.

Halsey was diagnosed with Lupus SLE and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in 2022. On June 22, 2025, amid her tour, she posted a picture of herself with a port on her chest to give her fans an update about her health.
