Halle Bailey Announces Debut Album ‘love? or something like it’ With Emotional Teaser
Halle Bailey is readying up for her debut album, and she’s opening up like never before.
“The Little Mermaid” star teased her upcoming project, “love? or something like it,” in a new clip that shows her wearing a striking red dress while posing in various cinematic shots.
The teaser features a spoken monologue from the actress, set against what appears to be a song from the project playing in the background.
She says: “Once upon a time, there was a young girl that believed in love. She believed everyone belonged to someone. Soul for a soul. All she wanted to find in life was to find the truest form of love. Was it ever possible? Here’s what happened.”
In the caption, she made the long-awaited announcement official, writing, “love? or something like it — my debut album. a story of first love, heartbreak, and everything that comes after. out 10/24. this one means everything to me. ♥️ presave link in bio.”
The album teaser hints that she may be reflecting on her breakup with ex-boyfriend DDG, who’s currently entangled in an ongoing legal battle with a streamer over custody of their son, Halo.
As for the latest update in the custody battle, a judge recently ruled that the rapper could visit his son in June, who was in Rome with Bailey at the time, as she was filming a project, under the condition that a professional monitor had to be present, according to BET.com.
DDG’s attorney, Larry Bakman, requested that the rapper be allowed to visit Halo at the end of the month under the supervision of his mother. However, Bailey’s lawyer, Jeremy Lane, opposed the motion, expressing concern that DDG’s mother has reportedly enabled some of the behavior Bailey described in her custody filing, which includes allegations of abuse.
