Billie Eilish is the kind of artist who just does her thing, no matter what people say. She’s always been true to herself, and that includes being open about her sexuality. Many applaud her for being a role model to countless young folks worldwide, showing them it’s okay to speak up and not conform to a single way of thinking.
At a recent event organized by Variety, where she originally mentioned her attraction to women in an interview, Billie wanted to clarify her stance and address those who withdrew their support. “I thought it was pretty obvious. I didn’t realize many people didn’t know. But then I saw the article and thought, ‘Oh, I guess I officially came out today.’ That’s okay, it’s actually pretty cool. It’s exciting for me because I guess some people weren’t aware, but it’s great that they are now,” Billie Eilish explained casually on the event’s red carpet.

In case anyone was worried that her Instagram numbers dropped by over 100,000 followers in recent weeks because she might change her mind, well, they’re wrong. She’s proud of who she is and who she loves because love is love.
Her words serve as a source of hope for those who may feel unsure about their feelings for people of the same sex. “I’ve never really felt like I could relate to girls very well. I love them so much. I love them as people. I’m attracted to them as people […] I’m physically attracted to them. But I’m also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence,” the singer openly shared.
