5 Reasons Why Billie Eilish Is My Girl Crush

Billie Elish Instagram

Billie Eilish has become my holy grail girl crush since around 2016. I finally went to see her in concert, and it was the best night of my life. Since then, I've wanted to share my fangirliness with everyone, so here are a few reasons why she needs to be your WCW too!

1. Her voice sounds like a thousand angels singing in harmony.

So recently, I went to see Billie in concert in Atlanta. Let me just spill the tea real quick. This girl sounds EXACTLY the same or even better in person. Her voice is so ethereal and unreal. She was singing laying down, sitting, standing on a floating bed, and jumping around, all while sounding like an angel sent from Heaven above.

2. She can rock any hair color that's on the spectrum.

Billie has rocked several colors, including blue, grey, black, purple, etc. and pulls them all off equally well. Eilish has said in a buzzfeed interview that she wants to change her hair not because she loves a change, but because she hates her hair. I'd have to disagree Billie. I STAN a colored queen.

3. She's a big fan of "The Office".

Billie claims to have watched the series OVER 12 times. Her tour buses are even adorned with pictures of the cast on the windshields. Billie has also gone head to head with Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson) on her knowledge of the sitcom and came out as the ultimate winner, donning a prize of a Chobani yogurt lid paperclip chain necklace. Billie has also featured some audio from the series into her new song "my strange addiction".

4. She wears WHATEVER she wants, and owns the look.

Billie is speaking her truth in a new Calvin Klein ad by revealing the reason behind her signature baggy clothes. She explains that she doesn't want the world to know everything about her, so she relies on fashion to protect herself. "That's why I wear baggy clothes," she says in the ad. "Nobody can have an opinion because they haven't seen what's underneath. Nobody can be like, 'she's slim-thick,' 'she's not slim-thick,' 'she's got a flat ass,' 'she's got a fat ass.' No one can say any of that because they don't know." All I can say after that is you do you, sis. Women being body shamed/sexualized is a regular occurrence, and for her to use her platform to speak out about it, applause to you babe.

5. She's accomplished all of this by age 17.

From a very young age, Billie has had a flair for music. At the age of eight, she joined the Los Angeles Children's Chorus and by the time she turned eleven, she was able to start writing and singing her own songs. In early 2016, she dropped her debut single, "Ocean Eyes" on SoundCloud, which she followed up with a music and dance video. By November that year, Ocean Eyes was re-released across the globe via Darkroom and Interscope Records to mainly positive reviews. Since then, Billie's estimated net worth is $5 million and her Instagram page alone has 14.5+ million followers. She has 32+ million monthly listeners on Spotify plus her YouTube boasts 9+ million subscribers and 1.4+ billion video view. Can you say you've accomplished that much by age 17? I know I sure couldn't.

I hope you've enjoyed a few of my reasons, but believe me, there are plenty more. Billie, if you ever read this, I love you. -your girl Hailey

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
