Billie Eilish is famed for her signature baggy clothes, which is why a photograph of her in a tank top that circulated in October received so much attention.

Unfortunately, however, not all of this attention was positive, and now she has responded to the trolls who body-shamed her in a new interview with Vanity Fair.

"There's this picture of me running from my car to my brother’s front door on like a 110-degree day in a tank top. And people were like, 'Damn, Billie got fat!'" the singer told the publication. "And I'm like, 'Nope, this is how I look, you’ve just never seen it before!'"

"I think yeah, the reason people are looking up to you is because you're you," Eilish explained. "They're not looking up to you so that you'll tell them something that you never actually tell them. They're looking up to you so that you tell them something that you would tell them yourself.

"I love having kids relate to me and tell me that I make them feel comfortable in their bodies. Like, if I can do anything I want to do that."

This is far from the first time that Eilish has hit back at those who have body-shamed her, and in May of this year, she defended herself in a short film entitled Not My Responsibility.

"If I wear what is comfortable, I am not a woman," she said in the video. "If I shed the layers, I'm a slut. Though you've never seen my body, you still judge it and judge me for it. Why? We make assumptions about people based on their size.

"We decide who they are, we decide what they're worth. If I wear more, if I wear less, who decides what that makes me? What that means? Is my value based only on your perception? Or is your opinion of me not my responsibility?"

The 18-year-old also opened up about the impact that the ongoing pandemic has had on her confidence and sense of self.

"For a while now, I’ve been really having an identity crisis. In December, I did some radio show performance and the entire show, I felt like I was pretending to be Billie Eilish. Like I completely wasn’t looking at myself as myself. I was just like totally seeing it from not my own perspective and it was so weird.

"Happened multiple times like at awards shows. I just felt like a parody of myself. I felt a little bit better about it lately. It's just like, you forget I'm literally 18. It's funny how I'm expected to find myself and stick with it," she said.

All the singer knew for sure was that she wanted to use her platform in a positive way to speak out against police brutality and racism.

"I have such a huge platform, why would I want to waste that?" Eilish continued. "Yeah, it's easier to say nothing, but like that's not going to help anything… I don't get the point of silence.

"There’s a difference between silence and processing and I think that is a big thing that people need to understand is that you gotta think through what you’re gonna say, say it in the right way, but I really think it's important to speak up and also be respectful."
