Billie Eilish‘s recent interview sparked headlines as fans pondered whether it was a coming-out story. But the singer herself is taking it all in stride, with her trademark wit and authenticity shining through.
In a Variety interview on the red carpet for the Variety Hitmakers Brunch, Billie playfully responded, “I didn't [know I was coming out], but I kinda thought, wasn't it obvious?” It turns out, she didn't realize that people weren't already aware of her true self.
Reflecting on her previous comments in a November Variety profile, where she mentioned being physically attracted to women, Billie clarified her stance on the red carpet. “I'm still scared of them, but I think they're pretty,” she joked. It's clear that her admiration for women goes beyond just physical attraction.
Amidst the buzz surrounding her interview, Billie laughed, “I saw the article, and I was like, ‘Oh, I guess I came out today!'” She doesn't believe in the concept of “coming out” and questions why it's even necessary. Billie simply wants everyone to exist and be themselves without the need for labels or announcements.
But let's not forget that Billie's journey through love and self-discovery has been a part of her public narrative. Her documentary, “Billie Eilish: The World's a Little Blurry,” gave fans a glimpse into her relationships, including her romance with rapper Brandon Adams, known as 7:AMP. While their love story was featured, it ultimately ended because Billie realized she wasn't happy in the relationship.
Billie's openness extends to her subsequent relationship with Jesse Rutherford, the lead singer of The Neighbourhood. Despite their 11-year age difference, they explored a connection before parting ways in May.
Recently, Billie has been spotted cozying up to Love, Victor actress Ava Capri, who identifies as queer. It's wonderful to see Billie embracing her authentic self and finding happiness in her personal life.
