- Billie Eilish has shared her mixed feelings about social media.
- She is not particularly proud of her extensive use of it.
- She talked about her complex relationship with her online presence.
The Grammy and Oscar-winning artist, who has previously spoken candidly about her complex relationship with her online presence, discussed her current stance on social media during a recent interview with Complex.
Eilish admitted to stepping away from social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok, a couple of months ago. “Yeah, I’m off that shit,” she said, describing the break as “awesome.” However, her efforts to stay off social media have been challenged by her ongoing world tour in support of her latest album, Hit Me Hard and Soft.
While on tour, Eilish expressed her love for interacting with fans and staying updated on their reactions to her shows. "I love seeing all the videos and all the angles. I love seeing how people are feeling and thinking about the show," she explained. “If I think something looks different, I want to change it.” However, this often leads her to get “sucked in” and feel “all f**ked up.”
Eilish likened her social media habit to a vice, saying, “It’s my cigarettes. It’s really a problem.” Despite the challenges, she continues to appreciate the positives, like Instagram Q&A sessions, though she acknowledges the downside: “Some people ruin it for the rest of them.”
