Billie Eilish opens up about struggling with body image: ‘Never really felt very beautiful’

Billie Eilish recently opened up about struggles women face, noting that being a woman is hard.

The 23-year-old singer in an interview with Britain's Vogue magazine was asked by Nicki Minaj, “This may be an odd question, but you seem to be a bit uncomfortable with how beautiful you are at times. I could be wrong.” 

Minaj continued the question, “Many women from all walks of life have felt that their work was overshadowed by their beauty or their physical attributes.

 “Was there ever a time in your career, or before you made it, when you wished people couldn’t see you and that they could only hear the music, and really get a chance to just listen to the written words?”

To which, the Bad Guy hitmaker responded, “Nicki, this question made me tear up a little.”

Eilish went on to say, “Well … like you said at the beginning of that question, I’ve never really felt very beautiful or seen myself in that way, so I definitely never struggled with the idea that it would overshadow anything since I didn’t even really see it myself.”

According to the No Time To Die songstress, she had to really convince herself that she is beautiful.

Before concluding, the Birds of a Feather singer also noted that being a woman is hard.

On the professional front, Billie Eilish's  upcoming project is the Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour, which kicked off in September 2024 and will conclude in Dublin on July 27, 2025.
