Billie Eilish has opened up about her sexuality - sparing no details!

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, the 22-year-old has seemingly confirmed that she would be open to a same-sex relationship in true Billie fashion, by stating she'd be happy to have her "face in a vagina."

While talking about her upcoming era, which promises to prioritize her mental health, privacy, and well-being - all while promoting her third studio album titled 'Hit Me Hard and Soft' - the 'Lovely' singer delved into aspects of her sexuality in regards to the song 'Lunch'.

The explicit song contains sexually provocative lines such as: "I could eat that girl for lunch / And she dances on my tongue / Tastes like she might be the one / And I can never get enough."

Speaking of the tune, she told the outlet: “That song was actually part of what helped me become who I am, to be real."

She continued: "I wrote some of it before even doing anything with a girl, and then wrote the rest after. I’ve been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just didn’t understand - until, last year, I realized I wanted my face in a vagina.

"I was never planning on talking about my sexuality ever, in a million years. It’s really frustrating to me that it came up," she added.

Eilish is likely referring to her interview with Variety last year in which she mentioned being attracted to women - a quote that seemingly went viral online.

In the November profile for Variety, Eilish spoke about her feelings for women, stating : “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."

“I have deep connections with women in my life, the friends in my life, the family in my life,” she explained. “I’m physically attracted to them. But I’m also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence.”

However, after the interview became a hot talking point at the Variety Hitmakers event in December, during which, red carpet interviewer Tiana DeNicola asked the singer: ""Billie! Did you mean to come out in the story?"

Billie responded in a very straightforward manner: "Girl... no I didn't. But I kinda thought... wasn't it obvious? Like, it's kinda been...I didn't realize people didn't know."


Eilish then took to her Instagram to slam the outlet for "outing her."

“Thanks Variety for my award and for also outing me on a red carpet at 11 a.m. instead of talking about anything else that matters," she wrote on social media. "I like boys and girls leave me alone about it please literally who cares."

While she admitted that she may have "overreacted" by saying the outlet "outed her" because (in her own words) it was pretty "obvious" the vibes she was giving, she emphasized to Rolling Stone that she refused to be put into a box.

“Who f****** cares?” she said. “The whole world suddenly decided who I was, and I didn’t get to say anything or control any of it. Nobody should be pressured into being one thing or the other, and I think that there’s a lot of wanting labels all over the place.

"Dude, I’ve known people that don’t know their sexuality, or feel comfortable with it, until they’re in their forties, fifties, sixties," she continued. "It takes a while to find yourself, and I think it’s really unfair, the way that the internet bullies you into talking about who you are and what you are.”

She isn't wrong there.

The internet can be a cruel place, but we're happy that Eilish is taking the time to figure out who she is and what she wants in her life without being influenced be external pressures.
