Billie's mom being so protective when she was so young is EVERYTHING. Specially when you see that sometimes parents don-t care about exposing their kids as long as a long check is coming their way

[audreeboucher]

Breaking down your career with vanity fair at 22 is crazyyyy so proud of her

[Hannah.hkp]

Billie in swarm was EVERYTHING, need more billie acting

[ScarlettJ]

Billie has done so much in her career and she's just getting started

[selina_]

I'm so glad to be alive at the same time as Billie

[miss]

My daughter loved Billie. She was heavily on her playlist during her last months alive. I ended up using a Billie Eilish song for her memorial video. She touches people so deeply.

[sarahjohn]

it comforts me seeing her open up more and watch how she keeps growing through the years

[eduardovasquez]

She has grown up so much. She sounds so mature in this

[imthemma]

she’ll never know how much she has ment to me for the last couple years. i’m so happy she’s happy

[aliciala]

So much Billie content atm… I’m in heaven!!!

[labro]

I honestly kinda giggled at the title of the video “breaks down career” like she’s literally 22 she has so much CAREER ahead of her still. I like how she said “career so far” in the beginning of the video.

[nabeehaah]

why did i think it was the "same interview, 7th year" for a second 😔✋️

[FelloFufufafa]

I love her style sm. The hair and glasses and her soft makeup is so cute. She is so naturally beautiful.

[amiiae]

"I will make you the biggest pop star in the world"
Finneas kept his promise.

[coltonxcx]

The fact that she’s accomplished all this in under a decade is insane. We love you Billie

[youtakemycaresaway]

one more interview becoming part of my therapy, i love billie sm🤍

[kissesfromtiara]

Hit Me Hard and Soft has been on repeat for me since it came out. It’s a beautiful album with amazing production, songwriting, and it tells a story. Seeing Billie’s journey has been great to watch. I hope she wins album of the year! She deserves it so much ❤🥹✨

[MrsPHoel]

Makes such a monumental difference when these kids have parents who protect & care for their kids. Makes me sad for those that don’t have that parental guidance as their success grows! I love watching Billie grow up; happy & healthy!

[karlarapps]

I am the same age and Billie and watching her "grow" is litterally sooo amazing! She have become one of the greatest in this generation wow

[TwanWu]

Wow her support system must've been enormously helpful. She has such a healthy life so far despite all the stardom. Her thoughts are really profound and secured.
