This week – Billie Eilish – Therefore I Am.
A little bit about Billie. Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connel first got attention in 2015 when she uploaded the song “Ocean Eyes” to SoundCloud. The song written and produced by her brother Finneas O’Connell. They do all their music and live shows together. Her debut studio album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? debuted at the top of the Billboard 200 and became one of the best-selling albums of 2019. Pretty impressive for a first album.
- The album’s fifth single “Bad Guy” became her first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100.
- In 2020, she performed the theme song “No Time to Die” for the James Bond film of the same name, which became her first number-one single in the UK. Pretty impressive for a new artist not even 19.
- She has won five Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, two Guinness World Records, three MTV Video Music Awards, and one Brit Award. She is the youngest person and second in history to win the four main Grammy categories – Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Album of the Year – in the SAME year.
- In 2019, Time magazine put her on their yearly Time 100 Next list.
- She has received a lot of attention for her fashion style, which is pretty much baggy clothing. In May 2019, Billie appeared in a Calvin Klein ad where she mentions the fact she dresses the way she does to stop people from body-shaming her. In a live show in Miami last March, as part of the Where Do We Go? Tour, she premiered a short film called “Not My Responsibility” which shares her experiences of body-shaming.
On Tuesday, in a post on Instagram, she shared a sweet message about her rescue dog Shark about how he changed her life.
“My sweet rescue baby boy was born a year ago today🥳🥳 You have made my life 1000x better happy birfday little shark🥰”
