As protests and violence continue to spread across numerous American cities in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death, Billie Eilish wrote an impassioned statement on Instagram to condemn white people who aren’t willing to engage with the Black Lives Matter movement. Or rather, people who don’t want to escape their White Lives Matter mindset. “I’ve […]
Billie Eilish has dealt a final death-blow to body-shamers. In a newly released short film titled “NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY,” she addresses her fashion choices and condemns the double-standards she faces as a young woman in the public eye. The video was originally shown during a concert interlude at the opening of her “Where Do We […]
The coronavirus TV specials began in full force last night as Elton John hosted the “Living Room Concert for America” on Fox. Taking the place of the canceled iHeartRadio Music Awards (and co-sponsored by the network), the hour-long musical event came to you live from many celebrity homes as a tribute to medical workers. The […]
As the coronavirus has kept us in our homes, celebrities have pivoted to making Content from their weird and wonderful homes, taking us from Patti LuPone’s basement to Madonna’s bathtub to Al Roker’s kitchen. And now, Fox will air a real treat on March 29 at 9 p.m. ET, “Fox Presents the iHeart Living Room […]
After canceling her tour in line with CDC restrictions issued to curb the coronavirus pandemic, Billie Eilish announced on March 16 that she will be rescheduling the remaining dates on her “Where Do We Go” tour. The 18-year-old pop star kicked off her live gigs on March 9 in Miami and was scheduled to conclude […]
Billie Eilish built a blockbuster in a bedroom, so it makes sense she’d record a Bond song on a tour bus. “We recorded the vocals in a bunk in the dark on the bus in a basement in Texas,” she recalls of the creation of “No Time to Die,” her song for the James Bond […]
Even before the slime-green roots made their grand debut, Billie Eilish has long favored a boxy, oversize fashion aesthetic while out in public — a choice that she previously explained is not to avoid being sexualized as a young female musician, but rather because, simply, she’s more comfortable wearing baggy clothes. During the opening of […]
Billie Eilish isn’t British, even if her name does sound like a pastoral Cornish hamlet. She did write the latest James Bond theme, however, for the upcoming No Time to Die, and as we all know, James Bond is a British action legend and sex symbol second only to Paddington. So days after debuting “No […]
Despite all of her eerie tunes that allude to teens sleeping with their friends’ fathers, Billie Eilish is a massive, massive Justin Bieber fan, so much so that her childhood bedroom was festooned with Believe-era Biebs posters all over the walls. The duo would go on to meet and collaborate following Eilish’s meteoric rise, and […]
James Bond is Old Hollywood’s last man standing, the rare film franchise from the ’60s that can still do numbers in the 21st century. People will always show up for a meticulous crime thriller, for a hero who never seems to sweat or worry. A character as adept at cheating death as 007 needs a […]
As one Oscars season comes to a close, another opens its doors anew. So begins the 2021 Best Original Song race, with this instant-classic title track for the upcoming James Bond film, No Time to Die, from 18-year-old professional Grammy collector Billie Eilish. Just last Sunday, Eilish made her Academy Awards debut singing a cover […]
Well, there go our jobs and livelihoods as entertainment journalists. On Thursday, Vogue sat Billie Eilish down for an interview with an “AI” that generated some surprisingly insightful questions. Fair warning: As with any “bot-written” parody or spec script, these questions are sort of more the product of a language-learning neural network working with a […]
Backlash, as a very abrupt kind of motion, is governed by the laws of Sir Isaac Newton. Action begets reaction in equal measure. The action on Billie Eilish has been intense this year. She swept all the major categories at the Grammys last week on the strength of her debut When We All Fall Asleep […]
Last year, fans of spooky duchess Billie Eilish were less than amused upon learning that Drake, the 33-year-old rapper from up north, was happily sliding into her text messages — especially since, at the time, Eilish was a minor at the age of 17. The brouhaha went away after a news cycle, but in a […]
Billie Eilish better pull together another large formal leisure ensemble, perhaps with some gold accents, because she is going to perform at the Oscars. The Academy announced the news today, putting her in a lineup of musicians that includes Cynthia Erivo, Elton John, Idina Menzel, Chrissy Metz, and Randy Newman. Eilish, who is some real […]
Billie Eilish ran out of people to thank as she took the stage to accept the Grammy for Record of the Year (for “bad guy”), simply saying “thank you” in unison with her brother and producer, Finneas. That’s because the 18-year-old became only the second artist ever to sweep the four general categories of Record […]
Do you see that? Billie Eilish is shining, in more ways than one, on the Grammys stage. The singer-songwriter abandoned her usual dark, electronic backing to perform “when the party’s over” with her producer brother Finneas on piano. The sibling duo are already both Grammy winners tonight, with Eilish taking home Best Pop Vocal Album […]
Get ready to turn your screen up to max brightness because Billie Eilish has directed and released the new music video for her single “everything i wanted,” and it is, on the one hand, very good, but on the other hand, it looks like it was shot by the cinematographer who did “The Long Night” […]
The name’s Guy. Bad Guy. On Tuesday, MGM and Universal Pictures International announced that Billie Eilish will write and record the theme song for the upcoming 25th James Bond film No Time to Die, making the 18-year-old singer the youngest artist in history to ever record a Bond theme. The song, which she’s co-writing with […]
