Billie Eilish just dropped some truth bombs that’ll make you go, “Wait, what?” In her latest tête-à-tête with Vogue for their November issue, the 22-year-old queen of all things cool and moody confessed she’d rather live in a world where no one knows about her dating escapades—or her love life at all, really.
“I wish no one knew anything about my sexuality or my dating life. Ever, ever, ever!” she exclaimed, probably with a dramatic hand gesture that would make Shakespeare proud. “And I hope that they never will again. And I’m never talking about my sexuality ever again. And I’m never talking about who I’m dating ever again.” So, basically, she wants to be as mysterious as a magician at a kids’ party.
Billie first hinted at her romantic side in a chat with Variety last year, and let’s just say she didn’t exactly plan on it being a front-page story. “I guess I also underestimate that things I say will be blown up into the biggest news of the whole world,” she mused. You’d think someone who sings about flying away on birds wouldn’t have to worry about people getting carried away with her words!
But wait, there’s more! Billie also threw some serious shade at the upcoming 2024 Presidential Election. She emphasized its importance with the gravitas of someone who just realized their favorite ice cream flavor is being discontinued. “I mean, this is the most important election of our time, maybe,” she said. “And it’s so easy to be like, I don’t want to think about it… but the truth is, we can all make change.” So, yes, she is indeed taking a break from talking about her love life to tackle the big stuff!
Just recently, Billie and her equally talented brother, Finneas, endorsed Kamala Harris for the next President of the United States, which sounds like a cool family project—kind of like building a treehouse, but with a lot more paperwork and fewer splinters.
When it comes to the issues that make her heart sing (and not just the catchy tunes), Billie’s all about human rights, women’s rights, and making sure we can all hang onto our freedom like it’s the last slice of pizza at a party. “A lot of my fans are going to be able to vote for the first time,” she declared. “So I’m like, Do you like freedom? First female president? Would be really amazing. I would love to feel safe as a woman in my country.”
While Billie is rocking out on her Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour without her trusty sidekicks (aka her mom and brother), she’s also channeling her inner activist. Remember, voting isn’t just important; it’s practically a concert of civic duty—and everyone’s invited! 🎤✨
