HALSEY has been smoking for 10 years . . . and she’s only 24. That means she started lighting up when she was 14 years old. (!!!) But I’m happy to report that she finally kicked the habit.

I gained a lot of weight and probably lost some friends forever because I was being a NUT (lol). “But I’m so happy I did it and I feel [very] goooood. Just wanted to share.” Her Tweet got some love from KELLY CLARKSON, who said, quote, “I don’t even know you and I’m proud of you! That’s amazing! You’re too cool, talented, and inspiring for you to shave years off your beautiful life girl.”
