Billie Eilish Opens Up About Sexuality Following Unwanted Public Disclosure at Variety Hitmakers Brunch

Billie Eilish, the celebrated 'What Was I Made For' artist, recently graced the Variety Hitmakers Brunch in Los Angeles, where she received an honor.

In her Instagram caption, Eilish acknowledged Variety for the accolade but raised concern about being inadvertently "outed" on the red carpet at 11 am. The post featured a shot of her belt buckle adorned with the silhouettes of two women. Eilish asserted her right to privacy, stating, "I like boys and girls, leave me alone about it, please. Literally, who cares? Stream 'What Was I Made For.'"

 

This post followed her interview with Variety a day prior to the event, where she revisited her November interview discussing her attraction to both men and women. Responding to questions about whether she intended to come out, Eilish expressed surprise, saying, "No, I didn't, but I kinda thought, 'Wasn't it obvious?' I didn't realize people didn't know."

 

The singer emphasized her disinterest in formally announcing her sexuality, stating, "I'm just like, why can't we just exist? I've been doing this for a long time and I just didn't talk about it." Reflecting on the Variety profile, she admitted, "I saw the article and I was like, 'Oh, I guess I came out today. OK, cool.'" Eilish found excitement in the revelation, noting, "It's cool that they know."

 

Despite nervousness, Eilish affirmed her support for girls, expressing attraction to them and acknowledging their significance in her life. Her previous comments in the Variety profile from the preceding month hinted at her connection with girls, stating, "I've never really felt like I could relate to girls very well." She further emphasized her love for them, both as individuals and romantically.

 

While speculation had arisen regarding her sexuality after the November profile, Eilish chose Saturday's red carpet as the platform to address and clarify her comments, reclaiming control over her narrative.

Jason Momoa's Epic Escape: How He Successfully Evaded Recognition in a World That Knows Him Everywhere

Image
Jason Momoa, the towering Aquaman star, is accustomed to standing out in a crowd. At 6'4", Hawaiian, and often sporting eye-catching outfits, blending in isn't his strong suit. However, there was one instance where he managed the impossible feat of going unrecognized, employing some extraordinary measures during his time in Jordan while filming for the 2021 movie Dune.   Acknowledging his distinct appearance, Momoa admits, “I get recognized wherever I go." Despite his tattoos, trademark eyebrow scar, and flowing hair, he embraces his uniqueness. Even his choice of transportation, including a baby pink Cadillac and a one-of-a-kind vintage pink motorcycle, doesn't help him keep a low profile.   Sharing a humorous anecdote, Momoa recalls a failed attempt at going incognito when he noticed a paparazzi picture of himself with a shirt pulled over his face, leaving only his eyes exposed. "It’s still like, you’re not getting away with anything. It’s still m...
