Billie Eilish reveals pornography addiction since childhood: “destroyed the brain”

American singer Billie Eilish talked about an addiction to pornography that began at age 11, and how she had nightmares and difficulties when she started dating.

Eilish, who turns 20 on Saturday (18), spoke on Howard Stern’s Sirius XM radio show last Monday (13).

“I think pornography is a disgrace. I used to watch a lot of pornography, to be honest. I started seeing it when I was, like, 11,” said the “Bad Guy” singer, saying it helped her feel cool and “fit in with the guys.”

“I think it really wrecked my brain and I feel totally devastated that I was exposed to so much pornography,” she added, saying she had nightmares because some of the content she was watching was violent and abusive.

Eilish, who was homeschooled in Los Angeles and won seven Grammy Awards, is known for her often dark lyrics.

In the song “Male Fantasy” on her second album “Happier Than Ever,” she sings about being home alone and being distracted by pornography, as she recalls a relationship that was broken.
