Billie Eilish has plenty to celebrate these days. Along with being an Oscar-winner who also has nine Grammy Awards, she has countless fans around the world. Beyond that, the singer is celebrating her birthday on Thursday, December 18, and marked the occasion by sharing a childhood photo of herself that’s both hilarious and adorable.
Taking to Instagram to share her post, she added a caption, simply writing, “24🎂”
The photo of the child (that we have to assume is Eilish) shows the little one standing in front of a birthday cake that features a unicorn on top. While that might make a fair share of kids smile, younger Eilish is rather unhappy in the pic and appears to be crying. Poor little Billie!
Billie’s Friends, Fans & Followers Sent Birthday Messages
In response to Eilish’s birthday post, plenty of her social media followers left comments to celebrate the star.
One person wrote, “happy birthday my sweet sweet girl 🥹 you’re truly the greatest 🥹 we’re forever here for you to watch you shine 🫀”
“happy birthday beautiful! so proud of you and all that you do 💙,” another person added.
A third fan wrote, “Happy birthday I love youuuu💗💗”
“Happy birthday billie 🥹 we love you! 💙,” came from another follower.
MTV also left a comment referring to the photo that Eilish shared, saying, “been there, hbd!!!”
Billie Has Grown Up in the Spotlight
Eilish may be 24 years old now; however, she was only 15 when she first found fame.
“Growing up in the public eye is a very bruising experience, and it’s really hard to grow and change,” Eilish told the BBC in 2022. “I just didn’t really know what to do. I was just grasping at straws.”
“I’m an internet kid,” she added. “I saw everybody else in the public eye when they were (famous), and suddenly it’s me.”
While she’s gotten older, the star noted that some people still view her as she was when she was younger.
“It absolutely drives me insane that you can look up Billie Eilish and videos that come up are things I said when I was 15,” she said. “Almost nothing I said before two months ago I still believe.”
She explained, “It was a very satisfying moment when I realized that people actually either wanted to hear what I had to say or believed in what I had to say. And when I finally had control was a really good moment.”
