Billie Eilish, one of the world's biggest musicians right now, recently made some very open remarks that got a lot of attention online.
In a chat with Rolling Stone, the 22-year-old talked about everything from her latest album to her personal growth and hobbies.
She shared that she felt her best in 2019, just after releasing her first album. Now, with her new album set to release this year, she feels like she's regained the freedom and youth she had five years ago.
But what really caught people's attention from the interview were her comments about her favorite topic.
When asked how she relaxes, she simply said, "Sex." She went on to say, "I basically talk about sex any time I possibly can. That's literally my favourite topic. My experience as a woman has been that it's seen in such a weird way."
Billie pointed out how many people feel uncomfortable discussing sex, especially when it comes to women being open about their sexuality. She believes this attitude needs to change.
Auto Draft The singer of "What Was I Made For?" shared that sex can 'save you sometimes' and that she 'can't recommend it more'.
Then, she got quite explicit about masturbation, saying that it's a big part of her life and that 'people should be jerking it'.
She even confessed to enjoying masturbating in front of a mirror, explaining: "Partly because it's hot, but it also makes me have such a raw, deep connection to myself and my body, and have a love for my body that I have not really ever had."
"I got to say, looking at yourself in the mirror and thinking 'I look really good right now' is so helpful."
Changing the lighting, wearing something nice, or finding a comfortable position can enhance the experience, she suggested.
"I have learned that looking at myself and watching myself feel pleasure has been an extreme help in loving myself and accepting myself, and feeling empowered and comfortable," she claimed.
The 22-year-old also joked that she should have a Ph.D. in masturbation.
Auto Draft Eilish also expressed her annoyance with the media's obsession with her sexuality, sharing the moment she realized she was attracted to girls.
She explained, "I've liked girls my whole life, but it wasn't until last year that I understood 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."
Last year, she clarified on Instagram that she likes both boys and girls, ending with a plea to be left alone about it: "Leave me alone about it please literally who cares."
On X, people reacted to her revelations about masturbation and sex, with one user asking, "Why did we need this information?"
Another commented, "Some things are better left unsaid."
On the other hand, a third person showed their support, saying: "She's so real for this share actually."
