Billie Eilish Says she still struggles with fame
Billie Eilish, a seven-time Grammy winner, has struggled with the responsibilities of public life. However, there are hints of progress. She appears on the cover of Allure’s upcoming “Best of Beauty” issue, where she frankly reveals her ongoing desire to get away from the spotlight.
“But I can do that. That’s the thing about diving into the hurt — I don’t need to do that,” Eilish said of the exposure. “I’m starting to do better, but I’ve not been doing so great, to be honest.”
“For a while. I have impending-doom feelings most of the day. When I think too much about it, how I can never have privacy again, it’s enough to make you want to do all sorts of crazy things,” she added. “But you have to let it go.”
Eilish rose to prominence at the age of 16 with her debut EP “Don’t Smile at Me.” She’s enjoyed global success since then, with multiple award wins, two chart-topping albums, and five top-10 singles.
Reflecting on her journey, she told the BBC in December how strange it seemed to go from an internet commentator to a well-known figure. She admitted that growing up in the spotlight has been difficult, making it difficult to evolve and mature. She acknowledged to feeling a little bewildered and unsure of how to handle it all at the time.

In an interview with Allure, Eilish stressed how far she had come since her adolescence. She stated that she realized the importance of personal growth and change.
“When I was 17, I was like, I found it. I found the person I am, forever. This is how I’m going to do it. I found all the ways,” she shared. “These are my boundaries.
These are the things that make me happy, and this is my recipe for how I’m going to make music and be happy. Then I grew up a little, and suddenly life was like, These aren’t going to work. You’ve got to change. You’re not that person anymore.”
