Billie Eilish reflects on falling into a 'pit of hopelessness' because of her gender - Daily Mail

She made the tragic confession after being featured by BBC 100 Women in its 2022 list, as part of a season of content celebrating 100 inspiring and influential women from around the world.

'I would just feel so hopeless because I'm a girl, so I'm never going to be able to have a show like that, I'm never going to be able to be free up there and wild… perform in this way and be more physical and be more about the performance...

'I like to feel more masculine than feminine, it just makes me feel better.

I struggled with it for a long time because I wanted to feel feminine and like it but I just didn't really, but it's finding moments when you can have that and it feels good still.'
