Real sensation in the latest major hype Billie Eilish (this editorial team also reported) is the Instagram post that the musician published on December 4th. It’s a whopping 45 words long. Otherwise, Billie Eilish is very taciturn on social media.
But after Saturday’s media event, in which Eilish was honored by the makers of Variety for the song “What Was I Made For,” clarification was needed. “Thank you for the award and for showing up on the red carpet at 11am instead of talking about something really important,” Eilish wrote. And then comes her declaration, which is actually pretty significant: “I like boys and girls, leave me alone, please, who cares.”
“I just don’t believe in going out.”
Eilish, one of today’s most influential stars, announces with just two words that his time out is over, “Who cares.” He criticizes how widespread the backlash is among the media and fans who want to put public figures in drawers, which can become aggressive, especially when it comes to an inherently private issue such as sexual orientation. The fact that Eilish was later forced to make an explanatory post on Instagram suggests that she felt her privacy was violated.
During the interview on the red carpet, Eilish seemed surprised by Variety correspondent Tiana DiNicola’s questions. Eilish knew the journalist and the two had already met before the event Video interview It is performed, so the reaction is relaxed. But Eilish still avoids it. She was asked if coming out would change anything. “I don’t know, it’s great that people know that now, I guess.” Was she even going to go out? Eilish’s answer: “I don’t believe in walking out. Can’t we just be there?”
At the end of her Instagram post, Billie Eilish references the single “What Was I Made For,” which she wrote for the soundtrack to the movie “Barbie.” “listen to this.” And in the chorus, Eilish sings: “I don’t know how to feel / But I want to try.”
A little later, the musician added a post, which is a small collection of blurry selfies. “Pepe” she writes and seems to say: We can go on again.
