Billie Ellish has made her stunning debut on the front cover of British Vogue, following her brand new album announcement.
The Grammy award winner has appeared on the June cover, speaking about her personal experiences, “It’s all about what makes you feel good.”
Eilish’s placement on the front cover reveals her new look. The signature green hair and baggy sweaters is replaced with something more skimpy and steamy. In the accompanying interview, the artist opens up about her latest transformation, new music and living life her way. She speaks on fame, popularity and makes it clear that regardless of her choice of clothing, she deserves respect.
The pop star’s career success is undeniable. Vogue states,
“… throughout Billie’s extraordinary career, it’s her depth, intelligence, humour and self awareness that underpin her choices.”
Body Positivity
Meanwhile, Vogue mentions that Eilish embodies the phrase, “the voice of a generation”. The magazine states how Eilish’s position in today’s digital era has granted her worldwide recognition,
” …the foremost musical star of her generation on social media, she lives in a world of snap judgements and harsh comments, a place where a layered thought process can get lost.”
The star is an icon of body positivity and a role model for future generations. However, as the popularity of users on digital platforms increases, so to do comments and trolls from the general public. Eilish revealed to Vogue that it’s the internet that struggles to accept difference and discrepancies in society.
“The more the internet and the world care about somebody that’s doing something they’re not used to, they put it on such a high pedestal that then it’s even worse.”
The worldwide superstar is an evolving artist. One that will continue to shake up the music industry in years to come.
