Finally an interviewer, who treats an adolescent female like an adult, respectable person and artist.
No stupid teenage magazine questions about dream boys, her love life or her favorite nail polish and stuff. Well done, Tom!
Interviewers ask about nail polish?
I like how on like every interview with Billie I see a similar comment everytime
@Matthew Henry By the time you posted that comment she's 18 but yeah.
I didn't like the interviewer. he was soo not interested in what billie is saying. like that's ok tho but then just don't interview her
Indeed, excellent interview more like a Visit 🤗
i wonder what those 2 girls are thinking of Billie now. i wonder how they feel knowing they watched a future superstar performing in front of 8 people.
I know how they feel. I watched Nirvana play in a basement to about 30 people. That night Kurt Cobain gave me his sweater cuz I was freezing. Within a year or so it was hard to even get tickets to see them play. And now my 13yo son idolizes Kurt. It all comes full circle... lol
CyanideLollipop that’s so cool!
@@junebaggu Right?! Trust me, I know how crazy lucky I was to be there!!
@@cyanide_lollipop3264 wooow!! i'm so late but that's a hell of a story.
I mean imagine knowing you almost made Billie cry because she was so happy.
I'm 61 years old and absolutely love this girl's music. She seems so down to earth and yet, so out there! Pretty amazing young lady!
Bob,I hope you have an amazing life.
You go Bob
Bob Beals i’m so proud
Ok boomer
I love you bob
“Art makes art.” - Billie Eilish.
I'm 61 years old and absolutely love this girl's music. She seems so down to earth and yet, so out there! Pretty amazing young lady!
i mean.. she’s not wrong
I came right to the comments to see if anyone else thought...wow. I'm an artist so it's the truth and I know it
I am just in awe of this interviewer. He’s completely genuine and patient and kind and is just there to listen to her as a human and not just a celebrity like most people who interview her do
Why thank you! Tom worked really hard with the producer on this interview. Thank you so much for watching!
Agree, feel like they clicked in some way and that's always nice to watch 😊
Agree completely. There was so much sincerity from the interviewer. Like he was intent on creating meaningful interaction, not grabbing sound bytes. Super refreshing to see an interviewer really engage the one being interviewed. Even Billie said it in the interview, she was like "wow you really want to know, you're not just crossing questions off a list" And because she realized his sincerity she answered more sincerely instead of using the "rehearsed answers"
I felt the opposite she was pissed from him at some point
Best Billie interview on CZcams for sure
Billie will never grasp how truly hypnotizing she is. She sucks you into her world and mind and makes you fall so deeply in love with her
Tell me about it!
YES! And I'm 32 !! 😅
LOL NO
I like it like that
Her eyes r like a grey sea shell under the bluest of blue water
"Your art makes art " i love her way of thinking
Billie shbillie 😄😱😱😱😱😱🤕🤕🤕you please let me if it doesn't
😱🏃🏃🏃🏃you can also use this one but we will need
I hope her success doesn't hurt her as a person. What a talent.
Finneas as well... such incredible talents
I think it already has. She has that "I"m so bored of all you peons already" look on her face. She'll be forgotten in a couple of years....just like that kid Lorde or whatever from Australia...and that other dummy from Australia that tries to sound black...I forget her name already...she has half a ticket on her wrist...
@@schmingusss you sound like a miserable person. You seem to actually want her to fail. I hope she stays successful and keeps releasing great music for us to listen to.
Goorie Henkel she will NEVER be forgotten.
Anonymous Gamer Amen 🙏 you got that right. 💕
@@schmingusss what r u talking about, her fandom is growing we will grow old with her, ...
I may be wrong, but I feel like a lot of us had found Billie during a rough time. She means so much to us because her music helped us through it.
literally
yeah. She was so much happier when she didn’t have millions of supporters. (I’m not saying she wasn’t happy that she was blowing up) she just got pressure by the fame. Cause everyone expects her to be perfect and be a princess, but like no matter your age, we all make mistakes. She’s also talked about depression and her friend dying? I don’t know how she can still do it, I just want her to take a break for atleast 6 months or more for her to get a rest. She’s trying her hardest to put out songs for her fans which we LOVE but I also want her to start taking care of herself as well. Yeah she is doing great right now, but really she deserves to have a little fame nap. I’m not famous or anything, but your fans can put so much pressure on you releasing something and no one in her fandom usually realises that.
She’s 16 (almost 17, in December) and she has like 15 singles and she’s only been doing it for 2 years. She is amazing and so many people have so much negative comments to say to her, no matter what she does. It’s her humour, she sometimes says thing she regrets. I just want her to take care.
Ok I’ll stop 😂😂😂
Jenalyn Ng I found her in 2017, and she was a lot happier. I met her in person and she looked a lot healthier. She was truly happy and now when I watch interviews she acts like a different human. I just hope she gets out of this funk :(
Jenalyn Ng nah, I just like her music. I don't think that music can really help people
@@jasmintea8825 music might not have helped you (yet) but I know a lot of people who have personally been changed through music, myself included. music can act as a kind of therapy for you to realise your own feelings which can help you sort yourself out. billie has helped me so much in the past year with my own depression and i know so many more people that have been personally impacted by her
How are her eyes that beautiful
Lexy Daly She’s Irish ☘️
Would you say she has ocean eyes ? 🤔😍
bilsexual xo She’s Irish-American 🤪 I’m sure you have lovely eyes as well.
bilsexual xo she has Irish and Scottish ancestry
bilsexual xo check her on wikipedia
The fact that billie is a year and a half older than jojo siwa in this video is mind boggling
Facts 💀😂
What the Facts
Wait she's also a year and a half older than me
Brittany Marie whaaaaa
Really?! Jojo is like a 10 year old unicorn lover in high tops and a hot pink jean jacket. (Cant forget the bow😉)
She’s so dope. I love her, listen to her daily and I’m literally 49 years old.
I'm 55 and am visiting my soon to be 80 year old Dad (This Thursday the 24th) and my 81 year old mom who now live in Santiago, Chile where absolute Chaos and Anarchy is now happening- (both my parents were raised in LA)- and I shut off the TV and told them 'You need to listen to the future of music from LA, now" My Mom was in Heaven and my dad has a new Crush. Amen and Hallelujah Billie exists!
Paulina Astete seriously!!! That is amazing. Yeah she’s wayyy ahead of her time!!
her music is really made for everyone. i was 13 when i discovered her i’m 14 now ,but not every artist is like this. i think it’s so cool that her fans range from idk 12-60!
Ch1ck3n Edits My 8 year old granddaughter told me about Billie a few months ago & I’m 73. I’m really happy for her & her brother & it’s awesome she won five grammys. 🙂🎶
Can a person be not literally an age?
LMAOOOO I THOUGHT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE MUSICALLY APP TOO 😂😂😂
SAMEEEEEEEE BAHHAAHAHAH
SAME BAHAHA
SAME LMFAO I WAS LIKE HUH 😭
Music.ly
No literally
She is really tired of all this fame... She wants a break. I ve seen her other interview (the one with the comparison of last year) and they sound like 2 different people.. :())
But she is still a queen and we love her,right? Love her ❤️ ❤️😘
Maggie (her mom) explained billie had spent the whole day rehearsing and billie didn't go to hair or makeup before the interview. She said not to worry and billie is doing well 💗
I watched that ..... That is so so emotional
@@ellafitzgerald9
I don't believe her.
I saw that too, I hope she gets help and rest.. We can't miss her
"She wants a break" lol you can’t assume she wants one. Did she say she needs one?
I want to just sit down and talk to Billie one day.
I knoww but bro- its hard
Billie wants to sit down and talk to you too.
Wow. Only 16-17yrs young and this talent has wisdom beyond belief. An old soul no dought.
An old soul that does not believe in any reincarnation.. that is why she says that eventually nothing really matters because everybody die. That sounds very depressiv to me. She has already so much wisdom for her age and still there is so much depression, frustration and sadness. It feels like there is no way out... except the death itself.
@@eleonoragillberg you sound like you watch rick and morty. Shes not wise shes a kid who should appericate youth.
You’re obviously not an old soul, no *DouGht*
Now she is 18 she has grown so fast :)
@@eleonoragillberg do you believe in reincarnation?
this girl. she is. unreal.
Are you her? You look like her.Is this you? Billie?
@@tornadotom2390 No it is a fan that uses her pic 😅💕👍
He
Suzy Pyne ........she......
The perfect girl doesn’t exi-
*"The perfect girl doesn't exi- OOPS NEVERMIND"*
You made the right choice of removing the letter S and T my friend. And she is perfect
@@hussain0413 no one is perfect lol
@@Hiki_Ismoyeah you're right but you know what I mean
Uros except for one person, our beautiful ocean eyed gal
honestly i’m confused as to why everyone is saying this interview is awkward! i think this is a great interview. tom power is asking her real and diverse questions that she isn’t used to hearing, which is really refreshing. most of her interviews are straightforward and repetitive, but this is a very different one and tom is pretty cool. billie has a lot more in her than most interviewers think, and tom is really trying to get it out of her and make her think out of the box :)
Whose the interviewer ?
He wanted solid answers so he pushed, while Billie doesn't really have any because everything is the answer. Billie gave him names for the sake of it, he wasn't getting anything out of her box. He looked a corner of it and thought it was the whole box.
This interview made me tired...
@@hank000 tom power
noelle I don’t think he’s awkward- he’s perfect.
13:25 when she looked at the camera my heart stopped
ME TOOO
I don’t understand why people were saying that the interviewer was bad or it was awkward. I liked him, really and the interview was good, I feel like billie kinda has this “annoyed” look naturally, I didn’t feel like she was actually
I have known her forever. She’s a lovely girl.
Mrchuck2000 ha LOVELY🥑
Nobody said that
Its called the resting "b" face haha
I have it too it suckssss
But billie pulls it off
It’s a fabulous interview. Deep and real.
I love how chill she is.
Dangerous Ari That’s called being high. Lol
Or more having a lack of serotonin. I mean listen to her songs. So deep and unhappy. Poor baby ❤️
Dee Rawrz She never been on drugs but go off
She’s sad, or tired. But she’s really hype at shows and happy at certain interviews.
@@BellaAphrodite you people are so gullible and pathetic, it's so sad.
She looks so sad in here. She’s been through a lot but now I’m happy because she is watching everything from another point of view and she’s in a good place now. We luv u babe, enjoy Hawaii you deserve it
I'm 52 and a huge fan, this young lady has serious talent and a refreshing take on life and success, I can't wait for the gifts she will bestow upon us..
Totally agree! I'm 32 and so obsessed with her and her outlook on everything in life. Drinking from a metal straw.. save the planet! What and absolute breath of fresh air this young lady is 💜
There's nothing refreshing or smart about what she says. See one of my comments above: "@ He mentioned Nietzsche as if she'd know about him lol. You can tell from her interviews she's not well read or particularly intelligent or insightful. She says way too much ignorant and potentially harmful things for her young fans who idolize her to hear and adopt. She shouldn't be speaking much on things until she educates herself, gains life experience and matures. @ She is too vapid to realize the stupidity, ignorance and detrimental nature of what she said there. @ another example of stupidity: 'dope' to Napster allowing illegal downloading of music, which was horrendous for the music industry overall"
I'm 65 and I'm also a huge fan. I love her music and the way she's so "normal". Can't wait to see what she does as she gets older.
@@carpediemearth just keep in mind she's 17. A lot of artists who become popular at that age go off the rails quickly, she's still a typical teenager with her own style.
I'm 60 and am totally impressed by this young lady. Thanks Billie and Finneas for putting yourself out there for us!
baby girl
lol
i've see you everywhere lol
🌱
I see you in the comments of like every Billie video I watch 😂😂
Lol
I hope she never does drugs.
I know it seems out of the blue, but all these huge celebrities, who used to be so real on camera and everything, certainly went for drugs and more or less ruined themselves.
Billie is so pure and her talent is so raw, I just hope she survives.
Probably she smokes pot
Avril Lavigne is real on camera and everything and she’s actually against drugs
RubberNinja00 omg how do you know :(
OkxyKrystal I don’t know, im just guessing.
RubberNinja00 no she doesn't
She should really send that girl a fat check for using her drawing
I love how he explained Napster to her with zero condescension. He doesn't just treat her like a young star... Just as an artist who's time is valuable.
One wonders if she is so effusive about it now, considering how many albums she would be selling if Napster neve existed.
She needs to take a break she deserves a time to rest that's all.
Brianne what does that even mean 😂🤷🏽♀️
If you are that famous you cant just take a break
@@louie8604 for mental health famous people needs to
I know , and I really hope she Notices me because she’s really my Idol , I really love her:)😊
@@louie8604 Robert Downey Junior proved you wrong. He had to detox before he became iron man
it hurts that we cant actually hear her at shows bc of the crowd
Em thank you!! It sucks because you want to hear her and people just ugh idk I mean it’s cute that we all know her lyrics but at emotional songs I’d like it to be quiet
@@gracejacobs4364 yeah i know everybody wants to idk have fun or smth but at emotional songs i want to hear her not screaming people around me
Em yeah if you watch my vlog you can tell like I tried to be quiet , I sang along too but it still sucked when everyone was screaming things like “ I love you “ when she had one little pause in lyrics idk
Really? I thought this was the one fanbase who didn't do that, they're messing it up and I hate it.
@@Blackmello they didnt do that like year ago maybe but know they do
or maybe 2 years
He is so good at redirecting the convo back to the original question that it stemmed from with out abruptly ending the convo. He asks great questions and seems very easy to talk to. He maintains a friendly flow throughout the entire process. 12/10
You can tell Billie hasn’t had any sleep she looks so tired x
she sounds so tired... its kinda sad to see how she seems a little sad with her fame
fame always tires people out, and as great fame and popularity is, so is privacy and having a 'normal' life
You think fame is a good thing? Obviously fame isn't going to magically make your life better. If anything, the attention makes it worse. I'm worried about her.
From all celebrities I've followed I notice that fame sucks. It's probably cool the first week then you're over it
Fame comes with a price. Fame is made to seem so glamorous but most of these famous people aren’t as happy as you think.
Or maybe she’s on tour, played a show the night before the interview and she’s just tired? Stop trying to read what isn’t there
Billie should call her fans "Billie Goats"
OH MY GOD YES!!!!
I fw it.
Omg i love it
Or Hillbillies lol Feelbillies
reagan rose sooo cute.
she is the most raw and genuine celebrity i know. and shes so young like 5 yrs older than me lmao
Billie doesn’t even know me but she has helped me so much🌙
Her nose is perfect
xsxsxs xs Right? Everything about her is perfect!
@@carisoul2180 Of course! Nobody's actually totally perfect but she's as close as anyone could be. She's amazing!
Oello👽 whats not perfect about her please tell me
I hope she never gets plastic surgery
@@TunciBalunci she's always sad and also we don't know her life behind music so and also no ones perfect
Do you know what I find so sad is that people who act like billie, dress like billie are often teased/bullied at school - Billie is different and she doesn’t care and she wears what she wants yet at school when someone does that, they’re penalised or teased for being different and not acting like everybody else. It’s weird what fame does to you but people are so judgemental nowadays and it’s pretty obvious why the people who were considered different or weird at school are the ones who end up being the most successful BECAUSE they’re not normal, they’re not like other girls and boys. They are themselves. I do hope Billie continues to perpetuate this whole demeanour she carries at the moment 💗
Billie created her own style. She litterally OWNS it
However long you took to write this comment, thank you, there should be more people who think similarly to you
helps to be homeschooled.
Let her have her style. I love the tomboy style. Just because you're a girl, that doesn't mean that you have to wear a skirt or a dress. I kinda dig it.
Funny because a lot of people who have a remotely similar style to Billie get attacked for copying her. It's sad because a lot of the time it's not the case. A lot of people dress like her
Love the interviewer. Billie is so genuine and I love how she isn’t all painted up. She’s herself. However, I hope that chick that drew that photo is getting royalties!!!
I just discovered Billie about a week ago and I can't stop listening to everything she does. She said she got a lot of inspiration from the Beatles, she is 17 years old. Hello! I got a lot of my inspiration from the Beatles too...and I'm 64. She was made to do this, it is in her soul. I hope she can continue on this wonderful heading and make beautiful performance art for a long time to come. WOW!
The longer i stare at Billie, the more i see Scarlett Johansson
Ahaha for real! And it's all about the stare
Oh damn
But with better eyes
Oh for sure! I was just thinking that! Especially the way her mouth moves when she talks!
No lie
OMG I THOUGHT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE APP MUSICAL.LY TOO
Watching this again now when she is actually happy . And it hurts that I can see it now that she wasn't doing well then .
I cried hearing her say that we are her friends 😭😭 I haven’t been to any of her shows tho but I want to go sooooooooooooooo bad 😭😭😭😭😭😭!
It is marketing
XXIII ok and I didn’t need to know that, I could’ve been happy to know she said we were friends i didn’t actually cry because I was being sarcastic
I just want to sit an talk in her red hell room for hours I never get tired of her just talking I love Miss Billie Eilish 🖤
Miss* she's not married yet😂 she's 16
Mood
Miss
Hello !! Lmao I fr thought miss was when u are married 🤦🏾♀️ homeschooled
I love Billie so much. I love how shes so real. And doesn't act like she's above others in any way shape or form. It's just amazing
Why do I feel like I just sat down and had a casual conversation with this girl.
She holds herself in an amazing way. She's going to go very, very far.
she really did
i’m still in love with this interview to this day
I just noticed she is wearing 5 watches 😂😂😂
yarden oved I read your comment and thought of that one scene from High School Musical the dude with the watches
She knows what time it is 😉
i agree with her on the “if u didn’t take a picture it didn’t happen” which sucks bc sometimes i wish i could just enjoy things and be in the moment because that’s what life should be, your memories, and your memories only should matter. i actually hate taking pictures because i just wanna enjoy my time but that’s my rant for today hope u enjoyed lol (i also frikin love music)
wami osh I’m the same way. But I literally can’t stop. Which sounds so crazy to say, but it’s true and me acknowledging it won’t make me stop doing it. It’s awful.
And no picture will do justice anyway...
But that's the thing. If you didn't take a picture it didn't happen... for everyone who wasn't there. But it still happened for you, it's become your memory and yours alone. Life isn't meant to share with everyone (Billie says this in the video). Everyone has their own life to live and your memories are yours. It happened, you experienced it, and you changed from it. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You have pictures inside your head, no camera necessary.
Me too and I'm not great at taking pics so I don't want to stand there taking 30 pics per event instead of just enjoying and knowing I made my nana's day versus telling everyone I went out with her.
I've been into music for 50 years and this is one of a handful of artists who have truly interested me in ages. Of course there have been some incredible artists along the way but something about her touches me in an incredibly different way. I hope she's allowed to grow at her own pace and record what she wants. Let the suits make money off of the half naked young women singing songs written for them by lecherous old men sitting behind their desks. She's the real deal.
How does someone this young write lyrics like she does? Obviously she hasn't experienced that much in life. I am amazed as to how someone so young is able to express mature emotions at that age. Kudos to her of course. Humans are evolving obviously at an incredible timeline.
Just Hope is a part of their focus......
Her bother writes and co-writes her songs and produces her music.
She’s incredibly charming and grounded. I love that. I think she has tapped into something that people in the industry have yet to understand and the importance of art in music. She is going to have very long lasting career ahead of her especially with the way she connects with people. She’s got the same wunderkind essence like when Aaliyah first came on the scene and Lorde. I’m excited to see her journey.
Tea_ cam me 2.
i'd hope so too, unfortunately she'll likely end up cloned like the rest of them. breaks my heart
Yeah I kind of see that especially with Aaliyah fashion wise. Musically she is diverse on a lot of levels. Like Lana Del Rey in a way and Lorde yes.
She also has a lot in common with Avril Lavigne and Amy Lee too at least aesthetically
Pros to the interviewer for trying and trying to get a real not 'routine' answer from Billie. :p. Her reaction to his persistence is cute . BILLIE is cute.
this is the third time I'm watching this interview.... Literally he used her drinking out of a steel straw to connect with her soul/ humanity..... dude this guy this interviwer....... if the page runners she this comment.... this interviewer will get you there... this one guy will get you there...management... people involved... keep this guy happy keep this guy loving what he does, provide interviews that feed into his potential and talent... watching this... (not only for billie but for the interviewer.... she's paving the path the new era.... this interviewer has this handled.... keep him happy keep him in a mindset where he loves what he does and success will follow.
p.s////
1/ wow i love billie... this interviewer is cool and makes her (a celeb) feel comfortable enough to have on open conversation.
2/ wow............... relistining.... the words I reheard that I didn't hear the first time... .savage,
3/ wow... this interviewer (3rd time just to listen to him and really understand and get the guy interviewing..... this guy is personable this guy has it..... third time watching only because I want to focus on the interviewer .... take care of him and keep him happy.
This one guy will get you where you want to be.
This interviewer is awesome and Billie is such a unique person love her!
She's been media trained and he's a damn good interviewer 😂😂
all i want is to hang out with her listen to music and just talk like no phones just me and her hanging out. that is deadass my dream
She does remind me of X too honestly.
Mine too 😣 but oh well it's never going to happen
why tho...she seems depressing af
Skot ?
Interviewer is really smart and drives the conversatjon in a very honest way.
A friend introduced me to Bellyache. I fell in love and never knew the lyrics... the music spoke to me. She's amazing... love her
I love billie’s personality
I know no one will believe me but I had a vision of someone like Billie. A couple years ago before I even knew her, I used to daydream about this girl with blue hair. The girl in my daydream was a little bit different but creepily similar to Billie. I daydreamed that she would rule the 2020s and become a legend. The girl in my daydream even wore lots of black and chains like Billie. I'm not saying I'm psychic, but if my daydream tells me anything, this girl is going to become insanely famous. She's going to lead the next generation. This is just what was in my dream.
idk I can believe it love
If your right remember me😜😂💗
I will remember this comment
I believe you
God you sound dumb.
13:26 she was talking about her fans having her back when people mispronounce her name and then I felt like she looked dead at me, but then I realized it was just a camera
He's soOOO chill
I love him
He just stares at her forever
if billie's infront of u who wouldn't
Mimi
i would do that too bro
@@semihkorkmaz4490 omg it's you again wtf
he probably lowkey has a crush on her 💀
@@semihkorkmaz4490 third time ive seen you on billie vids in 2 days
9:34 what a queen scratching her armpit
"If one person likes it then you're creating art in that persons brain" UGH literally why I love her.
Was feeling down about my own music but hearing her say things like that encourages me so much
man i find interviews or podcasts with her so relaxing
SHE NEEDS A BREAK. I REPEAT. SHE NEEDS A BREAK
preach
I hope she will be okay. I missed her 'happy'
I love how she is never like ‘you’re wrong’. Like she never disagrees with people but still has a clear opinion. I mean that’s a hard skill to have. I just love her 💖
ive been watching a bunch of billie’s interviews recently and that guy is amazing at interviewing. like he’s connecting with her while letting her be in charge of the conversation. idk i think hes dope
If i were to choose one person to sit and listen to or have a discussion with she would be the perfect choice
"Love matters"
"matters while ur there but eventually ur dying and then nothing matters." LMAOOO me af
Billie is so chill I love her sm
When I heard this.... Wow. Her voice is so much different than I realized! I love her
She's too real to be in the music industry.. Sadly, she will either become a robot like every other artist or the industry will move past her and find the next upcoming artist and repeat
Pink Floyd3 I disagree. She shows a strong mind, and has shown to be open to adapt to improve and evolve her music. I think that she has a bright future ahead of her.
@@Doodoohead123 I hope you are right and I am wrong
I think she could follow in the footsteps of Aurora and bjork
She actually stopped listemign to what other people want
@@Doodoohead123 that's the point, she already had a bright future ahead of her when she became her in genre (her music really want be classified into a genre) problem is, whoever she's managing with (not Finneas) is pushing her to go faster and make more money (I'm guessing) and that's stressing her out. She won't be able to have her bright future if she's getting pushed like that.
protect her! even if u hate her
I dont hate her. So imma protect her
it always makes me cry to hear tons of people singing along at a show, even when I don't know the artist super well. art and productions involving lots of people being pulled off successfully just moves me to tears every damned time.
Props to this interviewer , this was a good flowing conversation ! :D
Did anyone else think he was talking about the app musical.ly when he sAaid “musical.ly” 😂😂😂😂 I was laughing so hard when Billie was like “oh I thought u meant the app” 😂😂😂
Kiley Lara SAMMEEES i felt bad for him tho after he was tryna make a joke and she was just like no. 😂
Lowkey i did too😂😂he was like"what's musical.ly" and she was like "dOnT eVeN gEt mE sTaRtEd dUdE" 😂 😂 im dying 😂❤️❤️
She is literal perfection. Words cannot describe how much I love her.
name checks out...
She’s just a normal kid. I don’t get the hype.
Dude this interview is so good the interviewer is really good he is talking so calm to her it’s more like they are friends and his questions are really good
I love how she says that music is more than just a genre. I myself listen to all types of music. The part I pay attention to the most is the lyrics and how the artist portrays the feeling ment behind the lyrics.
Honestly she might be very mature under certain aspects, but there's stuff she says that makes it really clear she has some badly teenage immature ideas like the one that nothing matters in this world nor the things you say or do because eventually you will die and everybody else around you will die. Dude, the things you say and do have an everlasting effect on the people that come after you and are somewhat connected to you and the world itself therefore even if you die theres a consequence to everything you say and do.
AndrewP she also has depression so it’s probably how she copes. Don’t be so quick to judge you NEVER know what someone has been through or is GOING through.
No. Your actions certainly do not have any long-lasting effect. Unless you're the next Einstein or the next Beatles, your average Joe will be 100% forgotten after 3 generations. Most people have this realization, but lie themselves into a more comfortable version of life where you actually matter. You might have an _effect_ on some peoples choices that have bigger implications, but so what? If it wasn't you, statistically it would've been someone else.
People don't wanna accept these statistical *facts* as reality and therefore choose a religion that comforts them. In the end, if you want to define meaning as just your OWN meaning in life, sure, it exists. But if you search for a deeper meaning _with life itself_ , you simply will never find it.
she's right, it doesn't matter. because one day i'm going to die, you're going to die. the sun will expand and the earth will explode. so, she's right. nothing matters.
"Those badly teenage thoughts" are part of being depressed Andrew.
Somber =/= Mature
This interviewer asks great questions imo, this one is good idk what everyone’s talking about “they don’t get along”, what? He’s asking the questions that really let us get a taste of what she’s thinking and what inspires her
I think people really forget Billie is a TEENAGER. teenagers have funny attitudes and are sassy and angsty and that's how just how it is... whether she is a musical god or not. BUT in general, she's so smart in her thought patterns and i love who she is. I really can't wait to see where she goes when she's older.
i feel like they have such a good connection. the interviewer is so sweet and you can tell Billie was really happy and complimented when he wanted to know more about her and have a deep interview about her and who she is. i love her so much 💙
17:56 when she say "thanks", it's a really magical moment, i can't explain why but she seem so grateful inside when she say that and seem ust so candid, i love that
I feel that artists express their true emotions through music. There are no right or wrongs. Whether it's depressing or happy songs. We all are humans and we should understand each others. If you listen to a sad or happy song, you don't have to relate or connect to like it or even like the artist. Sometimes the lyrics just hit you so deep, & you're just amaze or just simply UNDERSTAND.... Maybe that's just what they want, to have people to hear them out. Its okay to express your true emotions, cuz you're just who you are. #TBH #TBT
Xee Chang you’re awesome
Alondra Margary Thx ☺💁♀️
15:58 BROO SAME😂😂
_is that the app where u throw the birds???_
She was shook for a sec
I love how he conducted the interview and the whole tone of their conversation is so calm and I actually sat thru the whole thing which is unusual for me being super restless!
I listen to her all day I'm 132 year old
miyavlayan kaplan I listen to her everyday too stay safe
Omg

have so much fun!!!
i feel like this interviewer doesn't really vibe with her too much in some ways lmao they kinda clashed a lil bit but it was a more interesting thing to see than an awkward thing because of their honesty with each other lmao. like one of the questions was one that didn't really fit her, and he was REALLY tryna be optimistic with the perspective on life.
OnlyMichaelJackson (Angel) Reminds me of school , teacher & a student. He’s probably like 28 and she’s 16 so it’ll be hard for them to vibe.
I feel like Billie felt challenged because (she even said it her self) he was asking real question. Questions he expected with real answer. She said she usually has an immediate response, a repetitive answer but she noticed that he wanted the truth. So it forced her to be somewhat truthful. To actually think of her answers. Not just be done with the interview and on the next. I liked this interview a lot. And I liked him too. Very well executed.
He’s asking her real questions. He’s actually a really good interviewer, which doesn’t mean he needs to “vibe” with the people he interviews. It means that he is able to ask questions that invoke honest answers because he’s asking meaningful questions. She also has a very nihilistic outlook, and he may be slightly taken aback by that, due to her age and fame. But a good interview doesn’t require the people to be best friends, that’s unrealistic. Being able to have a conversation with someone even though you don’t see eye to eye with them is important for the entertainment industry, and not enough people see that.

Exactly! That's what I was trying to say.

I agree, like the question didn't really fit with what she was used to.
I’ve seen hours worth of Billie’s interviews but this is by far the best one. Just hearing her be so real was...amazing👍thank you Billie
This was one of the best Billie interviews I think I’ve ever seen. The questions were so great and raw, and different from all the other interviews that seem to be the same.
I like the old soul vibe I get from her. She likes music that’s not popular, and wants to help out others that are creating true art just like her. I think we can all learn at least one thing from this 16 year old genius. I love you billie, take a break whenever you need it 💕
she's so humble and beautiful wow
thats by far the most serious yet so entertaining interview of billie. thanks mr dude.
What a great interview I love how genuine he was and how he asked questions that weren't typical to her in other interviews.
