Billie Eilish has unintentionally come out, explaining that she doesn’t believe in the formalities of having to ‘come out’.
She opened up about her sexuality in a recent cover story she did for Variety, expressing that she ‘didn’t realise people didn’t know’.
“I’ve never really felt like I could relate to girls very well. I love them so much. I love them as people. I’m attracted to them as people. I’m attracted to them for real.” she told Variety.
@varietymagazine “I’ve spent my life loving girls and being really worried that they hate me for some reason,” says #BillieEilish . “And wanting to impress them and whatever else.”
