Billie Eilish has praised Justin Bieber for helping her โ€œdeal with fameโ€.

The โ€˜Bad Guyโ€™ singer โ€“ who worked with the 27-year-old star on a remix of her hit single โ€“ revealed the pair have become โ€œgood friendsโ€ and itโ€™s meant a lot being able to talk to someone who knows what sheโ€™s going through as a teenager.

Appearing on SiriusXMโ€™s โ€˜The Morning Mash Upโ€™, she said: โ€œHeโ€™s just the sweetest baby ever. I love him.

โ€œHeโ€™s a good friend of mineโ€ฆ He has been so helpful for me, in terms of just like dealing with fame.

โ€œAnd heโ€™ll call me sometimes and just say stuff that makes me just feel heard and like thereโ€™s somebody else that goes through the same stuff, so itโ€™s really nice to have him.โ€

The 19-year-old star โ€“ who has opened up about her Bieber being her first celebrity cush when she was 12 years old โ€“ admitted she never expected to end up having his number in her phone.

She added: โ€œI didnโ€™t think Iโ€™d be even close at all. I didnโ€™t think Iโ€™d get anything.

โ€œThere were many markers that, when I hit them, I was like, this is not, I donโ€™t know. I could never have thought this would happen in my life.โ€

Last year, the โ€˜Sorryโ€™ hitmaker admitted his own experiences growing up in the spotlight mean he was determined to โ€œprotectโ€ Billie from the challenges he went through.

He said: โ€œIt was hard for me being that young and being in the industry and not knowing where to turn and everyone telling me they love me and just turn their back on you in a second, so if she ever needs me Iโ€™m going to be here for her.

โ€œI just want to protect her. I donโ€™t want her to go through anything I went through.

โ€œI donโ€™t wish that upon anybody. If she ever needs me, Iโ€™m just a call away.โ€
