Although Billie Eilish is okay with it, she was unaware that a recent interview would be interpreted as a coming-out tale.
“I didn’t, but I kinda thought, wasn’t it obvious?” the pop star said to Variety on the red carpet for the Variety Hitmakers Brunch, where she and brother Finneas were being honored with the film song of the year award for their Barbie soundtrack tune “What Was I Made For?” on Saturday (Dec. 2). “I didn’t realize people didn’t know.”
In the Nov. 13 cover story of the publication, Eilish stated that she has a female attraction:
“I love them so much,” she said. “I love them as people. I’m attracted to them as people. I’m attracted to them for real … I’m physically attracted to them. But I’m also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence.”
Only men have Eilish ever been in relationships in public; most recently, she was with Jesse Rutherford of The Neighbourhood until their breakup in May.
