Billie Eilish speaks out against body shaming:

“Growing up in public” has been the story of Billie Eilish’s life in the four-plus years since she rose from SoundCloud star to global phenomenon — but she’s using her platform to make a powerful statement about body shaming and assumptions people make about her and other young women with a new spoken-word video called

“Not My Responsibility.”

In the months since she became famous, much has been made about Eilish’s “realness” and her disinclination to glam herself up in traditional female pop-star ways, choosing instead to dress more like a rapper or a normal teenager. In the clip, the singer — who turned 18 in December — is shown in a darkened room, slowly removing her black hoodie as she speaks about body image and shaming. “Do you know me?,” she says, before proceeding into a series of questions about how people see her and expect her to act.
