Teen pop-star Billie Eilish is known for her unique style. The Bad Guy singer explained that she wears baggy clothing to avoid being sexualized.
“I never want the world to know everything about me. I mean, that’s why I wear big baggy clothes. Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath.
Nobody can be like, ‘Oh, she’s slim thick. She’s not slim thick. She got a flat ass. She’s got a fat ass.‘”

When a Troll Attacks
Apparently, one Twitter troll still found a way. When one Twitter user tweeted out a picture of the 17-year-old with a caption clearly objectifying the artist.

That’s when Billie Eilish’s ‘Avacadoes‘ came out to clap back at the troll.
This is the actual legitimate reason she is always wearing oversized clothes

Eilish fans or ‘Eyelashes‘ also pointed out that the Wish You Were Gay singer is a minor. This means that the troll’s comments now look even more creepier in hindsight.
hope billie never sees this. i don’t know what’s worse. you sexualizing a minor or you sexualizing someone who has gone out of their way to cover themselves.

again you baboon of a male. don’t sexualize Billie (or any woman in general) especially if she’s a minor and she doesn’t feel comfortable being sexualized.

Some fans sprinkled some sense of humor in there, but the message was clear.

However, this troll did not back down and then went on to justify why he can objectify Billie Eilish.

If you thought this man couldn’t get worse than ‘she’s legal somewhere’….he proved that he’s a bigot too. Not only did he objectify a minor for wearing a tank top, he also came across as condescending as well with his ‘response.’

He then tried to use Billie Eilish’s lyrics as an excuse of ‘provocation‘.

That’s when fans had to call him out on that too.
