JAKARTA - Halestrom's vocalist, Lzzy Hale, admitted in an interview with Riff XS's "Metal XS" that he deliberately used his sexuality at the start of Halestorm's career to gain more media coverage.

The vocalist once appeared on the cover of 2009's "Hottest Chicks In Metal" magazine and was named the "the hottest girl in hard rock and metal" by readers of the magazine. It could not be separated from the effort to look sexy.

"A year ago, when we first started the tour and you tried to get yourself into the magazine and get the attention for this or that, I got involved in a lot of things where... feel a little left out because I've never really opened up everything, know?" said Hale.

"So I'll be like in Revolver magazine for 'Hottest Chicks In Metal' or whatever and be like the only one who is fully dressed. [Obviously] But, yes, you have to do it because if it's a publication, you want attention to your band and you want to talk about music and everything," he continued.

"But, yeah, we've been really sexually assaulted for years. I think for me, you're a bit reverse it and in what you say in your song and you can always laugh last. But that's definitely changing. And just a few years ago I was probably the only girl at one of these festivals, and it didn't happen again. So I'm very proud of that and it's amazing to see all my sister's success."

Lzzy and his brother Arejay (drums) formed the Halestorm in 1998 when they were in high school. Guitarist Joe Hottinger joined the band in 2003, followed by bassist Josh Smith one year later.

In May, Halestorm teamed up with country singer Ashley McBryde for a re-concept version of the band's song Terrible Things, which was originally featured on the studio album released in 2022, Back From The Dead.

Last December, Halestorm released a deluxe edition of Back From The Dead which includes seven previously unreleased B-sides, including Mine, which was inspired by rockers in the 1980s.

Back From The Dead: Deluxe Edition is available in digital, CD, and cassette formats, marking the album's first time being offered in physical format.

In December 2018, Halestorm was nominated for the Grammy Awards in the Best Rock Performance category for the song Uncomfortable.

Six years earlier, the band won its first Grammys in the best Hard Rock/Metal Performance category for the song Love Bites (So Do I).
