Billie Eilish has taken the music industry by storm.
She’s been writing and creating her own music since she was incredibly young, and has risen to fame with the huge hit album When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? that was released in March 2019.
She’s known for being somewhat of a quirky character…
Billie was home-schooled.
So she didn’t get the chance to interact with others of her own age apart from her siblings.
Until she started to make waves in the music scene, which has given her something of a unique outlook on the world.
It reflects in her art.
Many are pretty shocked that such a young person could create such hauntingly catchy tunes — and such suggestive lyrics.
Her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, ranked at number 1 on the charts.
Most artists have to release a couple of albums and dedicate their lives to promoting their work before they are even recognized as an artist.
But then there are a lucky few, like Billie, who reach superstardom on their first attempt.
When the album was released, she wrote, “This album [means] the world to me please take care of it.”
And that’s not all…
Her introductory EP, Don’t Smile at Me, went all the way to slot fourteen.
It has already been awarded gold.
This is an achievement that many artists can only dream of receiving.
But, it’s safe to say, Billie is as famous for her image as she is for her music…
She doesn’t dress like your typical teenage girl, that’s for sure.
Billie is known for rocking some pretty wild looks…
And she owns it!
And Billie doesn’t just experiment with fashion…
The star is no stranger to getting creative with her hair — opting for more out-there looks and colors to fit her quirky aesthetic.
It began with the silver locks.
If anything, it was this look that became her trademark around 2017.
And who’s ever going to forget about this iconic color combo?
Billie made waves while sporting neon green roots. No one else could ever.
She’s spoken out about her style before…
Her choices in fashion – which strongly consist of baggy, oversized clothes – are picked to protect herself from her global audience body-shaming her and judging her on her natural appearance.
Speaking in an interview a few years ago, Billie explained these choices…
“That’s why I wear baggy clothes,” she said.
“Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath.”
“Nobody can be like, ‘she’s slim-thick,’ ‘she’s not slim-thick,’ ‘she’s got a flat a**,’ ‘she’s got a fat a**.’ No one can say any of that because they don’t know.”
But sadly, people have already attempted to exploit and body-shame the teenager.
Even when she was as young as fifteen, online trolls were trying to s*xualize her for no apparent reason.
Billie has the right to write about whatever she wants…
There’s no excuse for s*xualizing a young woman…
Or any woman of any age, for that matter.
She was only seventeen when she started experiencing this kind of disrespect.
But, when discussing the topic, Billie has said in the past that she doesn’t want to remain covered up forever.
“I’m going to be a woman. I want to show my body,” Billie told Elle in an interview back in 2019.
“What if I want to make a video where I want to look desirable?” she said.
But she understands the repercussions a move like that could bring.
“I know it would be a huge thing,” Billie said.
Adding “I know people will say, ‘I’ve lost all respect for her.’”
