Billie Eilish is an American singer, composer, and songwriter. She became a pop superstar because of her musical and fashion sensibilities.

Also, she gained attention worldwide in 2015 for the song Ocean Eyes and became the youngest person ever to win a Grammy for album of the year in 2020.

Career

Billie Eilish’s popularity from her debut song Ocean Eyes was intentional. In 2015, her dance teacher, Fred Diaz, asked her brother, Finneas, to write a song, so he could create the choreography.

Then, Eilish started signing contracts with well-known brands such as Apple and Channel.

Not only that, but she released other singles, Bellyache, Bored, Watch, Copycat, and more, in 2017 to follow Ocean Eyes success.

The following year, she held the Where’s My Mind Tour and partnered with other artists like Drake and Khalid.

In 2019, her 2017 song Don’t Smile at Me got 1 billion streams on Spotify. Next, she released her first album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?

Furthermore, the album peaked at any chart including Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart.

In 2019, Billie was nominated for Grammy Awards and crowned Billboard Woman of The Year. The following year at the 2020 Grammy Awards, she eventually won four categories.
