'Ghost' is the debut single by American singer and songwriter Halsey from her debut studio album, Badlands (2015).[2][3] The lyrics and musical composition are attributed to Halsey and Young Rising Sons' past member Dylan Scott. It was first released on February 3, 2014, on SoundCloud. On July 28, 2014, it was officially released by her record label and later included on her debut extended play, Room 93 on October 27, 2014. It was re-released as a single from her debut studio album, Badlands, along the re-release of the EP on March 9, 2015, through Astralwerks.[4][5] Critical reception for the song was generally positive. The accompanying music video has received over 60 million views on video-sharing website YouTube.[6]
Background[edit]
'Ghost' was posted on Halsey's SoundCloud page for streaming on February 3, 2014.[7] The song garnered online buzz which was an opening opportunity for Halsey to sign a record deal with Astralwerks, leading to the eventual publication of the Room 93 EP and additional videos for 'Hurricane' and 'Ghost'. Halsey expressed about the song, 'The concept of the song itself is about being in a relationship with someone who isn’t emotionally available: you feel their physical presence but the emotional one isn’t there.'[8]
Music videos[edit]
The first music video for 'Ghost', was directed by Alex de Bonrepos and premiered on October 27, 2014. It was filmed at the Pink Motel in Los Angeles, which was also the location of her music video for her song 'Hurricane'. The video begins with her kissing her boyfriend (played by model AJ English)[9] in the motel room, but soon takes a dangerous turn as the two begin to fight.[8]
A second official music video for 'Ghost', featuring the alternative mix, was filmed in Tokyo and was directed by Malia James and Ryan Witt in late May 2015. Halsey said she was satisfied with the outcome. It premiered on June 11, 2015.[10][11][12][13][14][1][15][16]

Where is Halsey? More specifically, where is Lakers Twitter's leader -- the @Halseyandone account?
The 26-year-old singer, songwriter and activist is a big Los Angeles Lakers fan and was part of a virtual crowd during the playoffs. Halsey started her basketball-only Twitter account on Sept. 8, and it has more than 113,000 followers.
'Just want a place to tweet about basketball :),' she said in her first tweet from the account.
Since then, the Lakers have gone 10-2 against their opponents and are one win from an NBA championship.
However, after the Miami Heat won Game 3, @Halseyandone disappeared. It's one of the biggest questions ahead of Game 5 of the NBA Finals (9 p.m. ET on ABC/ESPN App).
Here are some of the best from the first three games:
Game 1: Lakers 116, Heat 98
What happened: The Heat looked great in the first quarter, and Halsey was understandably nervous. But not nervous enough to skip the tacos. At halftime, she reminded fans what's on the line -- a 17th NBA title. With the Lakers comfortably leading in the second half, Halsey settled into some trash talking. She also hit on a common theme of Lakers Twitter -- that everyone somehow needed to be reminded how good the Lakers were -- they were, of course, the top seed in the Western Conference with the best player on the planet. But Halsey, and the rest of the Lakers' fans, could rest easy.
Afterward, she held her own news conference, breaking down her performance shutting down haters.
Game 2: Lakers 124, Heat 114
What happened: Ready for Game 2, Halsey did not have sympathy for the Heat, who lost Bam Adebayo and Goran Dragic to injury in Game 1. Lakers guard Danny Green, like seemingly every game, was not spared from social media complaints. Dwight Howard, however, was.

Game 3: Heat 115, Lakers 104
'Are we okay' could sum up a lot of feelings during the first half of Game 3. Miami is on fire, and Jimmy Butler is having a game. Halsey's getting candy to cope.
There is also a petition on change.org to deny Kyle Kuzma a ring if the Lakers win. Kuzma 'responds' with 19 points in Game 3.
What happened: Butler finishes with 40 points and a triple-double. Lakers center Anthony Davis, due to foul trouble and poor play, was ineffective. But the refs drew much of the ire from Halsey, and Lakers fans, during the game. That is until Herro made his now-famous sneer.

And that's where it ends. @Halseyandone hasn't tweeted since Oct. 4. We didn't see her the next game. Not a single meme during Tuesday's Game 4, which L.A. won 102-96.
Trump Twitter
In her non-basketball world, Halsey has been seen, at least on Twitter. She released, on Oct. 4, a video from vote.org in which she talks with Vermont senator Bernie Sanders. On Oct. 7, she tweeted out a photo of the cover of V Magazine with her on it.

But nothing about hoops. ESPN reached out to her for a comment on Twitter, as well as through her record label multiple times, but did not get a response.
Will she return for Game 5? Is she superstitious? Hopefully, with the candy ready, she's back for what could be a title-winning game for the Lakers.
