Casual Attitude Towards Coming Out:

Eilish, 21, expressed nonchalance about the situation, jokingly mentioning, “I’m still scared of [women], but I think they’re pretty.” She emphasized that she didn’t realize people were unaware of her orientation and commented, “I just don’t really believe in [coming out]. 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 Relationships and Breakup:

The singer, known for her openness, previously dated rapper Brandon Adams (7:AMP), a relationship featured in the documentary “Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry.” Addressing their breakup, Eilish spoke candidly about not being happy and highlighted differences in their desires. She explained, “I didn’t want the same things he wanted, and I don’t think that’s fair for him.”

Embracing the Excitement of Revealing Identity:

Despite her casual approach, Eilish acknowledged the excitement surrounding the revelation, stating, “It’s cool that they know,” while confirming, “I am for the girls.” The artist’s journey from addressing relationships in her documentary to confirming her queer identity adds a layer of authenticity to her public image.
