Billie Eilish talks about the judgments she faced after dying her hair blonde.
In a chat with Highsnobiety, Eilish admitted, “I didn’t feel sexy for a second being blonde.”
“When I was blonde, people treated me differently. People completely changed their behavior [around me].”
“People saw me as this 15-year-old, kid, who wore this kind of stuff, had this kind of look, acted this kind of way, said this kind of way. I felt like I couldn’t change. That’s why I went so far to the other side,” she explained.
“I was trying to prove, ‘Hey, f—k you guys, I can do whatever I want.’ Now I can look really masculine if I want to, and really feminine if I want to, and it won’t be a headline.
“It’s not that you wear one thing, and it’s your new style — you keep wearing a bunch of bullshit,” she said.
Despite the backlash, Eilish admitted earlier that she really likes being blonde.
“I feel more like a woman, in a way,” she had told the shiny.
