Billie Eilish Says She Would Rather ‘Die’ Than Not Have Children

Billie Eilish is certainly one of the most attention-grabbing singers in the music industry right now. The music sensation’s songs have been chart-toppers for a long time now.  Recently, the singer spoke out on her tough touring schedule, while also detailing her plans for the future.

Billie has declared she would ‘rather die’ than not become a mother in the future. The pop star explained that she always wanted to have children and that becoming a parent was one of her main goals in life during an interview with The Sunday Times Magazine.

The always popular artist did admit, however, that she also ‘dreads it,’ as she will feel anxious about protecting her kids as they grow up. Eilish stated during the sit down, “[I would] rather die [than not have kids]… I need them.” The Bad Guy songwriter went on to express that she was concerned about the potential shortcomings that her future children would experience.   

“The older I get, the more I experience things, I just think, uuggh, what am I going to do when my kid thinks that this is the right thing to do, and I’m, like, no, it’s not! And they won’t listen to me,”

Eilish was homeschooled as a child along with her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas and ‘graduated’ at 15 when she passed a high school equivalency exam. Speaking about the issues facing kids in America right now, Billie confessed she’s horrified by the fear of school shootings. 

“Why is it OK to be scared to go to school? … You go to school and be prepared for a life-changing traumatic experience or dying. What? Who? Where is the logic there?”

Eilish recently opened up about her struggle with life in the spotlight, admitting she became depressed despite enjoying huge success after releasing her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? The performer released the hit album in 2019 when she was only 17.
