Billie!

Billie! Billie! Billie!

Billie!

Women are just, like, at the top right now.

I mean, top of all the charts, it's women, women, women.

I mean, it's, like, the most incredible thing for me to see.

With a style and attitude that defies conventions

and a unique sound within the industry, it's

hard to deny that Billie Eilish has become

synonymous with the current pop culture.

Her music resonates with millions of fans around

the world, selling out arenas and stadiums, making

her one of the largest artists today.

With her biggest fan base being teenagers and

young adults, Billie will have a long-lasting

influence in the music industry for decades to come.

This is the story of how a young teenage girl broke the rules of music and

changed the game forever.

From bad guy to bossa nova, Billie, with

the help of her brother Finneas, have taken

the music world by storm with their unique presence.

And with four widely beloved and acclaimed albums,

all with distinct styles and themes, this brother

sister combo have become a power duo in the industry.

And there is no stopping them now.

Billie Eilish, Pirate Baird O'Connell, was born

on December 18, 2001, in Los Angeles, California.

Raised in a household filled with creativity, Billie

was homeschooled alongside her brother by their parents,

Maggie Baird and Patrick O'Connell, both of

whom are also in the entertainment industry.

Her middle name, which later went on to

become her stage name, Eilish, was originally meant to be her first name.

However, during her mother's pregnancy, her grandfather, William

Baird, passed away.

And so her parents decided to name their

daughter Billie after her late grandfather.

They encouraged their children from a young age

to pursue any dream and career they wanted,

giving them freedom to express themselves and pursue different options.

Our parents were theater people before they were our parents.

And they met on a flight to Alaska to do regional theater in 1984.

And in the 90s, they got married to each other and they decided to start a

family, and they decided that it might be

a good idea to move from New York,

where they were doing plays, to Los Angeles

to maybe do some things that would make

some residual income, like film and television.

And that didn't work out at all.

And I think it underscored, as children, that

it was okay to have dreams that didn't

pan out the way that you thought they might.

At a young age, Billie was diagnosed with

Tourette syndrome and also synesthesia, a neurological condition

that causes people to have heightened senses or

experience multiple senses at the same time, and

most commonly, in Billie's case, linking colors to

music, which is why, in her later discography,

each album has a very specific and unique color palette to it.

Billie's chosen career path, however, was entertainment, specifically

dancing, music, and acting.

From a young age, Billie was involved in

music, creating melodies with her brother from just

age 6 and learning to play the ukulele a few years later.

Billie has said, I don't know how to function without music.

When I'm not making it, I'm listening to it.

It gives me courage and takes care of my mind.

Billie wrote her first real song at just

11 years old, which was apparently about a zombie apocalypse.

Though her dancing would come to a sudden

conclusion when in 2016, a growth plate injury

ended her dance career for good, causing her

to decide to fully focus on recording music.

With the help of her brother, who by this point had been in his own band

and producing his own music, she created a

small number of songs and put them up

onto the music streaming platform SoundCloud for free

at the age of just 13 years old.

The first songs they recorded together were called

She's Broken and Fingers Crossed, the former written

by Phineas and the latter by Eilish.

These songs performed well, however.

It was her next track, Ocean Eyes, that

would truly take off, skyrocketing her and her

brother into the mainstream's eyes and landing them a record deal.

♪ I’ve never fallen from quite this high ♪

♪ Fallin’ into your ocean eyes ♪

♪ Those ocean eyes ♪

♪ I’ve been walkin’ ♪

After the success of her SoundCloud singles, Billie, with

the help of Phineas and his natural production

skills, went on to create and release her

first EP, Don't Smile at Me, in August of 2017.

Released through Darkroom and Interscope Records, Don't Smile

at Me proved to be a breakout hit album for the young Billie, with some of

the singles reaching up to top five on the charts.

The album featured catchy and soulful lyrics that

dealt with everything from self-doubt, depression, and

even murder, all in the style that Billie has become known for.

The red and yellow palettes of the

cover was Billie's way of blending simplicity with

something bold and eye-catching.

It wasn't polished or flashy.

It was just Billie.

The phrase, don't smile at me, was Billie's

way of rejecting societal norms and expectations, especially being a woman.

She explained, everyone's taught to smile.

Girls are like, look happy.

Look like you're having fun.

I'm not gonna look like anybody except what I am.

I want to impress myself.

One of the biggest tracks on the album,

Bellyache, tells the story of a character who murdered their partner.

However, it's contrasted with an upbeat, almost playful melody.

♪ I don’t mind ♪

♪ Where’s my mind ♪

♪ Where’s my mind ♪

♪ Where’s my mind ♪

♪ Maybe it’s in the gutter ♪

♪ Where I left my lover ♪

When speaking about Bellyache, Eilish has said, I

like writing about things that aren't real.

The song is about not trusting anyone and

then putting trust in yourself and realizing that

you don't know what you are doing either.

One of the more personal tracks on the

album, I Don't Wanna Be You Anymore, is

an introspective ballad all about Billie's self-doubt and inner conflict.

Billie, when talking about this track, described it

as one of the hardest songs to write because it forced her to get into her

own head.

The raw emotion in her voice resonated with

many teen fans worldwide who saw their own

struggles reflected in her lyrics.

♪ Tell the mirror what you know she's heard before ♪

♪ I don't wanna be you ♪

♪ Anymore ♪

In a glimpse into the future, the opening

track of the album, Copycat, showcased a darker and edgier side to Billie.

The song was Eilish's response to people she

felt kept copying everything she was doing.

This darker, edgier side is something that would

be explored much deeper in her later music.

♪ By the way, you’ve been uninvited ♪

♪ ‘Cause all you say, are all the same things I... ♪

Each track provided a new and unique listening

experience for us, with each sounding distinct from

one another and from her contemporaries.

If Don't Smile At Me Did Anything showed

the world that Eilish was on the scene and ready to take over the world.

Billie Eilish's unique persona, marked by her baggy,

neon fashion and iconic blank stare, paired with

a fun, sarcastic personality, made her a fashion

icon, inspiring many young girls.

Her distinct artistry, production, and melancholic pop vocals

captivated listeners, especially youth, with her debut album

showcasing her talent.

However, it was her next album that propelled her to greater heights.

In 2019, Eilish released her first ever studio

album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?

The album was game-changing.

Building on the momentum from her breakout EP,

Billie and her brother pushed boundaries with a

record that was bold, eerie, and unapologetically unique.

This darker, more haunting album further evolved the

style that Eilish has now become synonymous with.

With whispery vocals and dark synth tones, the

music was unlike anything else releasing at the time.

♪ If teardrops could be bottled ♪

♪ There’d be swimming pools filled by models ♪

♪ Told “a tight dress ♪

♪ Is what makes ♪ - Taking everything that made

♪ You a whore ♪ - Don't Smile At Me so good and ramping it up to eleven.

The album's cover art set the tone perfectly,

featuring an image of Billie sitting on a

bed with an unsettling grin and pale eyes

in a dimly lit room, giving it the

nightmarish and uncanny quality that was intended for this album.

Billie said that she was inspired by night

terrors she had in the past and horror films, including The Babadook.

Remarkably, this critically acclaimed album was recorded entirely

in Billie Eilish's bedroom with Phineas, often in their pajamas.

Behind-the-scenes footage shows the duo working

casually yet diligently from home, redefining the bedroom pop genre.

♪ My eyes, they won’t close ♪

Oh, that’s cool. ♪ I can’t say no ♪

♪ I can’t say no ♪ ♪ I can’t say no ♪

♪ Step on the glass, staple your tongue ♪

♪ Ahh ♪

♪ And heaven’s out of sight ♪

♪ She’ll want the devil on her team ♪

Say we made this album in a bedroom at our house that we grew up in,

and it was mastered in somebody's living room,

so it's really like anything is possible, honestly.

The standout track from this album is Billie's signature song, Bad Guy.

♪ She’ll pity the men I know

♪ So you're a tough guy ♪

♪ Like it really rough guy ♪

♪ Just can't get enough guy ♪

♪ Chest always so puffed guy ♪

♪ I'm that bad type ♪

♪ Make your mama sad type ♪

♪ Make your girlfriend mad tight ♪

♪ Might secude your dad type ♪

♪ I'm the bad guy, duh ♪

With its throbbing bassline, playful lyrics, and iconic

beat switch, it became an instant phenomenon, equal

parts cheeky and sinister.

The famous duh was even recorded in her

brother's closet during a laugh-filled session.

The track hit number one on the Billboard

Hot 100, cementing Billie as a unique pop artist.

With over 2.5 billion Spotify streams, it

became iconic, defining Billie in 2010's culture.

Another memorable track and arguably the centerpiece of

the album was Bury a Friend, which came

with a horror-tinged, creepy music video.

♪ I wanna end me ♪

♪ I wanna, I wanna, I wanna... end me ♪

♪ I wanna, I wanna, I wanna ♪

♪ What do you want from me? Why don’t you run from me? ♪

♪ What are you wondering? What do you know? ♪

The song delves into Billie's imagination and introduced a darker,

more introspective pop style.

You Should See Me in a Crown was

another standout, with haunting, minimalistic production and eerie vocals.

Its hypnotic build leads to a menacing bass

drop, showcasing Billie's style and Finneas' cinematic, layered production.

♪ Visions I vandalize ♪

♪ Cold in my kingdom size ♪

♪ Fell for these ocean eyes ♪

♪ You should see me in a crown ♪

♪ I’m gonna run this nothing town ♪

♪ Watch me make ‘em bow ♪

♪ One by one by one ♪

♪ One by one by ♪

♪ You should see me in a crown ♪

At the end of the album, listeners are greeted with

Goodbye, the closing track.

This hauntingly minimalist song serves as a reflective

piece on the whole album, weaving lyrics together

from every track that came before it, slowly as if waking up from a dream.

It was a very fitting and poignant way

to end this iconic and now legendary album.

Needless to say, the album absolutely blew up

in popularity, thanks to its advertising on streaming

platforms and its huge marketing push, defining a

generation and becoming one of the biggest albums

of the decade and one of the most iconic albums of all time.

Eilish began earning her first major accolades in

2019, when she claimed wins at the MTV

Video Awards and American Music Awards and was

named Billboard's Woman of the Year.

But her big moment came at the January

2020 Grammys, when she became the first woman

and the second artist overall to sweep the

big four categories of Album of the Year,

Record of the Year, Song of the Year,

and Best New Artist, adding Best Pop Vocal Album for good measure.

Eilish continued her winning streak when in 2021

she managed to land the prestigious opportunity to

create the new song for the latest James

Bond movie, No Time to Die, putting her

in the same league as other legendary artists

like Adele and Paul McCartney.

The song, of the same name as the

movie itself, was released to critical acclaim and

won multiple awards for Eilish, including an Oscar for Best Original Song.

It's amazing, if I have to put it somehow.

It's completely a dream and incredible, and I'm speechless.

I mean, we really tried.

I think that we gave it a really good shot, and we wanted to pay respect

to all of the songs in the past and all of the, you know, the legacy

of the franchise and make sure to not

change anything or take anything away from what it has been.

And I mean, I feel good with how it went.

I don't know if the world does, but I feel really happy with it and very,

just, it's shocking.

It's a crazy thing to be part of.

This haunting, atmospheric piece blends heartbreak and resignation

with Billie's sultry tone, lush orchestration, and Bond theme motifs.

A timeless departure from her usual style, it

showcased her range and ranks among the franchise's

greats, resonating far beyond the film.

♪ You were never on my side ♪

♪ Fool me once, fool me twice ♪

♪ Are you death of paradise? ♪

♪ Now you’ll never see me cry ♪

♪ There’s just no time to die ♪

With the success of When We All Fall Asleep,

Where Do We Go, and now No Time

To Die, Billie's accolades and awards just kept piling up.

With one big question on everyone's mind, what's next?

Um, what's next?

I don't know, be in this moment is all I'm thinking about.

But if I'm trying to think rationally, next, I don't know what is next.

I'm gonna just do whatever I feel, kinda.

I think I'm gonna, whatever I'm in the mood for is what I'm gonna go for.

In July of that same year, the question

was answered when Billie followed up her first

studio album and released her second full-length album, Happier Than Ever.

Unlike her first album, this one, while still

being melancholic and somber, was less nightmarish-themed.

Instead, it dealt with more real issues Billie

was having at the time, like her rise

to fame and challenges in her personal relationships.

She took great inspiration from the COVID pandemic,

as well as her recent breakup with rapper 7AMP.

The album infused lyrics with raw emotion and

power and embraced her femininity while still being

loyal to her signature style.

The cover art, with a vintage 1920s to

30s Hollywood vibe and a golden color scheme, enhances its appeal.

Billie's blue eyes and single tear capture the

album's melancholy, while her blonde hair embodies the

brighter Hollywood starlet aesthetic she aimed for.

Eilish's hair color had always been of huge

importance when coming across the themes and ideas

of each album, and this blonde hair gave

her the more brighter Hollywood starlet look she was going for.

During this time, Billie also radically changed her

appearance to match her new theme, with new

blonde hair and embracing her more feminine side,

being willing to show more of her skin

and even modeling in a corset for Vogue,

a stark contrast from the baggy clothes and

completely covered up look she had before.

The beige, golden browns of this new style

gave her a vintage look, continuing the motif

of an old Hollywood look the album had.

The album title, Happier Than Ever, may seem

ironic given its themes of heartbreak and frustration,

but Billie described it as therapeutic, helping her

heal, let go of toxicity, and embrace strength and happiness.

Like, right now, I'm wearing a tighter shirt,

and I'm wearing a more low-cut shirt,

and, like, you know, the older me would

have been like, ooh, please don't, but I like it.

It makes me feel good now.

People decided that that was who I was,

so it's really hard to change and grow

and mature and, like, become a human when

people decided that you were one thing.

Moving away from her dark aesthetic, this era

showcased her introspection, vulnerability, and a more expansive sound.

The title track of the record, Happier Than

Ever, was easily the most popular because it

was so surprising to its listeners.

Beginning as a simple acoustic song that sounds

like it could have come from the radio

in the 1950s, eventually explodes into a loud

rock ballad with screaming vocals and angry lyrics.

♪ This city ♪

♪ And I don't talk shit about you on the internet ♪

♪ Never told anyone anything bad ♪

♪ Cause that shit’s embarrassing ♪

♪ You were my everything ♪

♪ And all that you did ♪

Billie described the track as being one of the most cathartic

she has ever written, channeling all her frustration

and liberation into an erupting rock ballad and

resonating raw honesty to all her fans.

Another noticeable track on the album was Oxytocin.

This pulsing, high-energy, and sexually charged song

was a first for Billie.

Providing sultry and provocative lyrics and an intense

electronic production, this was the first time Billie

had sang such a sexual, hypnotic, and intense song.

And to the fans, it paid off.

Happier than ever was Billie at her most experimental,

and Oxytocin was a perfect example of this.

However, other tracks on the album explore different

genres like jazz, bossa nova, and other 1950s melodies.

Therefore I Am, another popular track from the

album, offered a more classic Billie.

♪ Friend or anything, damn ♪

♪ You think that you're the man ♪

♪ I think, therefore, I am ♪

♪ I’m not your friend or anything, damn ♪

♪ You think that you’re the man ♪

♪ I think, therefore, I am ♪

The song is all about Billie shrugging off

societal expectations and criticism towards her, reclaiming her

narrative in the face of scrutiny.

Something that was also talked about in another

track on the album, Not My Responsibility.

A spoken word piece played over an eerie

instrumental as Billie talks directly to you, the

listener, letting out all the anger and disappointment

about the way she has been perceived by

people, and the objectification of women, despite at

the time of her first album's release, being just an underage girl.

This track also came with a short film

attached to it, uploaded to her YouTube channel.

This odd and eerie piece perfectly captures how

many women feel in today's world, and the

struggles they have every day about their body

and how they are perceived by others, especially men.

If I wear what is comfortable.

If I shed the layers, I'm a slut.

Though you've never seen my body, you still judge it, and judge me for it.

Why?

After the huge success of Happier Than Ever,

Billie managed to land herself an exclusive special

with Disney Plus during the COVID-19 pandemic,

where she performed the album in its entirety

with the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl Amphitheater.

The film received critical acclaim, winning multiple awards,

with some even saying the performances were just

as good, if not better than the studio album.

Her first full arena tour came in 2022,

appropriately named the Happier Than Ever Tour, and

was a huge success for Billie.

Happier Than Ever overall was Billie at her

most experimental and self-confident.

Ultimately, it serves as a beautiful and dreamlike

follow-up to the unattainable heights of the

nightmarish When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?

Back in 2022, though, Billie surprised her fans

by releasing two new songs onto streaming services

without announcement under an EP named Guitar Songs.

These two songs, TV and The 30th, were

sentimental songs backed by simple acoustic guitar.

TV explores the topics of abandonment and a

desire for numbness as a distraction from the

problems that plague the world, while The 30th

is a more personal track that, in the

past, Billie has refused to perform live.

It features lyrics centered around a car crash

that occurred on November 30th that almost killed her closest friend.

Both of these tracks, while being a big

surprise for fans, were widely met with a warm reception.

In 2023, Billie contributed the iconic What Was

I Made For to the Barbie movie.

The song, featured in a pivotal moment, became

a sensation, earning acclaim as one of the

year's best and winning multiple awards, including a

Grammy, Academy Award, and Golden Globe.

I would really like to say that this

award and all of any recognition that this

song gets, I just want to dedicate to

anyone who is, you know, experiences hopelessness and

the feeling of existential dread and feeling like,

what's the point, and why am I here, and what am I doing this for?

And I think we all feel like that

occasionally, but, you know, I think if somebody

like me, with the amount of privilege that

I have and the incredible things that I get to do and, you know, be, and

how I have really not wanted to be here.

Sorry to get dark, damn.

But I've spent a lot of time feeling that way, and I just want to say

that to anyone that feels that way, be

patient with yourself and know that it is,

I think, worth it all, and I think that it's good to be alive now.

And...

I didn't feel like that for a very

long time, and especially when we were asked to write this song, I was in a

dark, a dark episode, I guess, and things

didn't make sense, like life, I just didn't

understand what the point was and why, and

why you keep going and, you know, just

questioning everything in the world, and honestly, like,

going to see the movie and being shown

the small amount that we were shown, I

was sitting there next to Finneas, it was

just the two of us in this theatre,

basically, and I was just, like, watching Barbie.

Barbie!

Like, say and feel things that I really,

really, really resonated with and felt so close

to, and I felt so seen, and I did not expect that, and I think that

this movie is the most incredible, most empowering

and beautiful and funny and just unbelievable piece

of art in the world, and I'm so, so honored to be a part of it.

The song itself is a poignant, stripped-back

and introspective piano ballad that showcases Billy and

Finneas' emotional depth, lyrically speaking about indignity, belonging

and yearning for more.

♪ Taking a drive, I was an ideal ♪

♪ Looked so alive ♪

♪ Turns out I'm not real ♪

♪ Just something you paid for ♪

♪ What was I made for? ♪

The happier-than-ever era of Billy.

While not as groundbreaking as her first album,

it is seen as an important step in her growth as an artist and her rise

to being one of the biggest stars in the music business.

On the 24th of May, 2024, Eilish would

release her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft.

Both Eilish and Finneas have talked at length

about how difficult the process was in making

the album, both lacking in creativity and feeling

conflicted in where to go with it, even arguing a lot.

They even considered stopping completely and not even making another album.

However, after completing the first couple of songs,

Skinny and The Greatest, Eilish said she knew

where they were going from that point on.

The album, while definitely still melancholic tonally, presents

lyrics that are much more upbeat, positive and

gentler than her previous two albums.

The cover art for the album is interesting to say the least.

Truly committed to her craft, she went through

a grueling six hours to complete the album

cover, where she was submerged in water, with

weights attached to her shoulders for up to

two minutes at the time, which she later

on described as one of the most painful experiences of her life.

Billie has described the album as a cohesive

narrative, likening it to a family where no one track could stand alone.

This approach meant that for the first time

in her discography, there were no singles released

before the entire album dropped, meaning fans had

to experience its entirety upon release.

And so the tracks all follow similar themes

and ideas, centered around love, sexuality, identity and even abuse.

Birds of a Feather became the album's breakout

hit, blending airy vocals with an upbeat rhythm

to explore themes of love-bombing and obsession.

Hinting at Billie's personal life, including her bisexuality,

the song emphasizes loyalty and companionship to a

toxic degree, which Billie intended.

The emotional ballad crescendos into a powerful chorus,

showcasing Phineas' refined production.

Its simple yet striking music video features Billie

being drawn by an invisible force, enhancing the track's impact.

♪ Don’t wanna say goodbye ♪

♪ Birds of a feather ♪

♪ We should stick together, I know ♪ ♪ ‘Til the day that I die ♪

♪ I said I’d never think ♪

♪ I wasn’t better alone ♪ ♪ ‘Til the light leaves my eyes ♪

♪ Can’t change the weather ♪

♪ Might not be forever, but if ♪ ♪ ‘Til the day that I die ♪

♪ It’s forever, it’s even better ♪

♪ I knew you in another life ♪

♪ You had that same look in your eyes ♪

The track Lunch highlights Billie's newfound sexuality with

bold, sexually-charged lyrics directed at a nameless

girl over a smooth, heavy bassline.

Critics dubbed it experimental pop-punk, with its

pulsating beat reminiscent of bad guy.

The playful yet candid lyrics explore her queer

identity, confidence and body image, reflecting the happier -than-ever era.

Accompanied by a hip-hop-tinged music video

directed by Billie herself, the track became a

fan favorite in one of the album's most popular songs.

Eilish said about the track, I wrote some

of it before even doing anything with a girl and then wrote the rest after.

I've been in love with girls for my

whole life, but I just didn't understand.

♪ “Call me when you’re there” ♪

♪ Said, “I bought you somethin’ rare ♪

♪ And I left it under Claire” ♪

♪ So now, she’s comin’ up the stairs ♪

♪ So I’m pullin’ up a chair ♪

♪ And I’m puttin’ up my hair ♪

♪ Baby, I think you were made for me ♪

♪ Somebody write down the recipe ♪

♪ Been tryin’ hard not to overeat ♪

♪ You’re just so sweet ♪

The Diner, while not being one of the

biggest tracks on the album in terms of

numbers, is still an important piece of this puzzle.

This song shows a different kind of obsession,

stalking.

A haunting track that is told from the

perspective of a stalker This narrative delves into

themes like obsession, boundaries and the dangers of

such misplaced affection.

Through unsettling yet poetic lyrics and a catchy

yet unnerving beat, Billie masterfully captures the delusions

of intimacy with a famous figure from the perspective of a stalker.

This theme resonates with the storytelling style found

in songs like Tyler, the Creator's Colossus or

even more famously, Eminem's Stan.

The Diner resonates with Billie on a personal

level as it reflects her fears and experiences

with stalkers in real life or creepy messages

she has received online from people.

She has openly spoken about her unease and

fear caused by these encounters, which makes not

only the song an artistic expression of that

but also a commentary on the problem with fame.

Billie has spoken on this stating, “Fame is so weird.

It's just weird.

It's so strange that it's a thing and especially that I am involved.

I love my job, I really do.

I love what I get to do.

But there are a lot of elements that are very difficult to deal with.”

Apart from The Diner, Chihiro was the only other

song to get a music video, highlighting its

importance within this concept album.

Named after the character from critically acclaimed Japanese

animated movie Spirited Away, the song parallels the

film, navigating a surreal spirit world to rediscover Billie's identity.

Billie has described this track as blending her

own perspective with that of the film's main

character, exploring themes like vulnerability and self-discovery.

♪ Serious, mm ♪

♪ Open up the door, can you open up the door? ♪

♪ I know you said before you can’t cope with anymore ♪

♪ You told me it was war, said you’d show me what’s in store ♪

♪ I hope it’s not for sure, can you open up the door? ♪

Musically, the song stands out from the others

with an ethereal ambience and subtle jazz mixed

into its haunting melody, delving into themes like

loss and the personal toll of greed and selfishness.

It sees Billie feeling unseen, misunderstood and alone

as she searches the spirit and physical world for connection.

The song has since been celebrated for its

experimental and layered approach in storytelling and production,

making it a significant entry in her now iconic discography.

All of this goes to show just how

far Billie has come in both her songwriting

and production, with deep meanings to each and

every track she makes all woven together to create a true work of art.

Despite Hit Me Hard & Soft being the

hardest album for her and Phineas to create,

it has topped the charts and received critical

acclaim, being considered one of the best albums of the year.

With three albums and two Oscar-winning songs

crafted for high-profile films, Billie's distinctive and

unique presence in the music scene has captivated

audiences worldwide, solidifying her status as an era-defining

artist in the spotlight.

We've literally seen her grow up and mature

within her music and lyrics, going from an

edgy teen to a strong female artist within

the music world, all while keeping her charismatic

and likable character, image and persona.

From a teenager crafting music in her bedroom

to a global icon, Billie's story is one of relentless creativity.

Her journey has always been about challenging the

status quo of women in society, pushing boundaries

as to what it means to be a female in the music scene in the modern day.

Eilish has said, in the public eye, girls and women with

strong perspectives are hated.

If you're a girl with an opinion, people just hate you.

There are still people who are afraid of

successful women, and that's so lame.

With the help of Finneas, Billie has managed to

redefine the music industry and with her still

being so early in her young life and career, her story is far from over, as

Billie continues to grow, evolve and create.

Who knows what's next for the bad guy?
