Billie Eilish Shares Powerful Short Film Addressing People's ''Opinions'' About Her Body
On Tuesday, the 18-year-old shared a short film in which she candidly speaks of the judgement she faces from the public about the way she chooses to dress and how she chooses to flaunt her body.
"Do you know me—really, know me? You have opinions about my opinions, about my music, about my clothes, about my body," she begins the video, as she begins to slowly remove her clothes."Some people hate what I wear; some people praise it. Some people use it to shame others; some people use it to shame me. But I feel you watching, always."World Tour earlier this year in March. Now, she's sharing it for the world to see on YouTube.
"Nothing I do goes unseen, so while I feel your stares, your disapproval… or your sighs of relief," the video goes on."If I lived by them, I'd never be able to move.""Would you like me to be smaller? Weaker? Softer? Taller? Would you like me to be quiet? Do my shoulders provoke you? Does my chest?" Billie goes on, as a dark pool envelops her.
She concludes,"We decide who they are. We decide what they're worth. If I wear more, if I wear less, who decides what that makes me? What that means? Is my value based only on your perception? Or is your opinion of me not my responsibility?", a short film, isn't the first time Billie has used her platform and influence to speak out on body shamers and the way she's perceived.
