The singer Billie Eilish 23, may have fans around the world who scream for her, but, if you could have changed it when you were younger I would have done that. “I I hated my name completely When I was a child, ”he said in an interview with British Vogue, published on Monday (14).
The artist answered a series of questions about her life and career asked by other celebrities, such as Nicki Minaj, Jane Fonda, Chappell Roan, Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX.
Answering a question from actor Idris Elba, Eilish said, “I thought Billie was a boy’s name. It was all I heard every day of my life. I remember being so annoyed, and all I wanted was to have a very feminine name, such as violet or lavender, some kind of beautiful and flowered name.”
Fortunately, the singer, who now has her name linked to two Oscars, two Golden Globes and nine Grammy Awards, has completely changed perspective.
“And it’s so funny because now there is no other name in the universe that could be mine, besides Billie,” she added. “I love very, very, very, my name. It really is the only possible option for who I am. I feel that it is exactly perfect for me and who I am.”
She said she was named after her grandfather, William, and that the first woman named Billie of those who were aware of was actress Billie Piper, “Doctor Who”.
Over the years, Eilish’s fashion choices have ranged from wide clothes to lighter pieces to the body.
In the question asked by Minaj, the rapper said, “You look a little uncomfortable how beautiful you are sometimes,” before asking the singer of “Ocean Eyes” if she already “wished people couldn’t see her and just hear the song.”
“Nicki, this question made me cry a little,” said Eilish, before agreeing that she “never felt very beautiful or saw herself that way, so she definitely never had difficulty with the idea that it could overshadow something, since even she even saw it. I had to convince myself that I am beautiful.
The singer answered a variety of questions, including one made by Stella McCartney, who asked the singer about her love for animals and about being vegan.
Eilish said he took years to follow veganism after his family adopted the lifestyle, “mainly because I hated my body and thought it was going to lose weight.”
“But then I learned all about the dairy industry and animal agriculture completely horrible and disturbing that we all pretend to be normal and acceptable,” she continued.
