Billie Eilish shows off her impressive Aussie accent and says Saddle Club and H2O: Just Add Water were ‘literally my favorite shows’ growing up
Billie Eilish drove the crowd crazy at a packed concert in Melbourne this week after showing off her impressive Australian accent.
The 20-year-old revealed to the sold-out crowd at the Rod Laver Arena that her two favorite shows as a child were Australian children’s shows H2O: Just Add Water and The Saddle Club.
The Bad Guy hitmaker also said she “really wanted to have an Aussie accent” when she was growing up.

Billie’s admission prompted her guitarist to ask her to “give us some dialogue from the show”.
She happily agreed and adopted a stereotypical Australian accent to say “Oh, no, Cleo”, which was a line from H20, then shouted “Comanche”, the name of the horse on The Saddle Club.
The crowd roared with excitement as Billie revealed her penchant for performing.

A TikTok video capturing the moment quickly went viral and received hundreds of comments within hours of being uploaded.
One fan joked that “Billie sounds better than me and I’m actually Aussie”, while another said his H20 impression was “perfect”.
Earlier this month, Billie opened the Australian leg of her Happier Than Ever world tour with a sold-out concert at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena.

But she was taken aback during the show when 16,000 fans started chanting the classic ‘Aussie! Aussie! Aussie! Oh ! Oh ! Oh!’
The Los Angeles-born singer asked the crowd “what is this?” before adding “Holy shit, I like that!” reported the Herald Sun.
Billie will perform her final show in Melbourne on Monday before flying to Perth to perform at the RAC Arena on Thursday and Friday.
The Saddle Club was a popular Australian children’s show about four riding best friends and ran from 2001 to 2009. (Pictured: the main cast in 2004)
