billie eilish No time for haters. The 21-year-old, winner of seven Grammys, one Oscar and youngest-ever Coachella headliner, clearly has enough social media haters who live to criticize. On Saturday, on her Instagram Stories, she cleared her throat to respond to “some comments I see sometimes”.
Due to the ephemeral nature of the Forum, we are no longer able to link directly to specific comments. But luckily many people caught them in time. People reported that, alongside an image of her eyes widening, she wrote: “I spent the first 5 years of my career being completely criticized by idiots because I was a boy and I dressed the way I did and they constantly told me if I acted like a lady I’ll be overheated.” And now when I’m comfortable enough to wear anything, you tell me “I’ve changed and I’m worth it”… and “what happened to her”, but she’s not a normal girl, she’s just like that It’s everyone else, blah blah”.

He added: ‘You guys are real idiots. LOL I can be both, you fucking idiot. Let women be.” Along with another picture of her smiling, she wrote: “Did you know women are multidimensional!!!!!??? shocking right?? Believe it or not women can be interested in more things. She continued to caption images of her gesturing with her hands, that “doesn’t femininity equal weakness?!” at different times.
What were the initial comments that gave rise to such a reaction? We have no interest in locating and raising them! If you don’t like a new song from an artist, that’s okay, don’t listen to it. If you want to start critiquing her very existence — especially when it comes to a young woman who has spoken candidly and often about body image — you deserve to be called an “idiot” on Instagram. Are.

It’s just not different Barbies with different heads,” she said. in the profile of new York Times Dedicated to her family in 2020, may have been a mother Maggie Baird Who said: «Internet is idiotic».
VF Polygon contacted Eilish’s representatives to find out if she still had anything to say to her detractors, but hopefully she shrugged it off and moved on.
