Billie Eilish tells Instagram trolls to 'start normalizing real bodies'
Billie Eilish has always been outspoken about body shamers as well as her choice to wear baggy clothing so no one can offer unnecessary commentary and sexualize her.
After paparazzi pictures of her in a tank top and shorts surfaced and spread on social media, she made a statement on her Instagram, calling out the trolls posting about the photos.

In an Instagram story, the 'Bad Guy' singer reposted a TikTok where blogger Chizi Duru says, "Y’all gotta start normalizing real bodies, okay? Not everybody has a wagon behind them, okay? Guts are normal; they’re normal. Boobs sag, especially after breastfeeding. Instagram isn’t real."

She also posted a picture in a tank top. One fan commented, "When Billie does not show her body she gets hate when she shows her body she gets hate like bruhhhhhh what do you want from her," which received more than 34,000 likes.
Eilish previously told ELLE that she's sick and tired of people sexualizing young women for what they wear. She said, "It makes me mad. I have to wear a big shirt for you not to feel uncomfortable about my boobs!"
She explained, "I was born with f***ing boobs, bro. I was born with DNA that was gonna give me big-ass boobs...Someone with smaller boobs could wear a tank top, and I could put on that exact tank top and get slut-shamed because my boobs are big. That is stupid. It’s the same shirt!"
