Billie Eilish Opens Up About Losing Friends to Ghosting and the Cost of Fame

Billie Eilish, the Grammy-winning singer, has shared her experiences with being ghosted and losing friends in the limelight. In a recent interview on BBC's Miss Me? podcast hosted by Lily Allen and Miquita Oliver, Eilish opened up about a shocking instance of ghosting she faced last year.

Eilish revealed that she had planned to meet someone she knew for years, but he never showed up or contacted her again. She was surprised and disappointed by the sudden disappearance, especially since they had made plans and shared an address.

The singer joked about the man's size and courage, expressing her disbelief at his behavior. However, she also acknowledged that this experience was a reminder of the cost of fame.

Eilish further discussed how she lost most of her friends when she became famous at a young age. She explained that it was tough to relate to people and make new friends due to abandonment issues and the fear of loss. However, she has since made an effort to reconnect with old friends and now has a large group of companions.

Despite the challenges, Eilish remains optimistic about her friendships and continues to focus on her music career. Her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, was released on May 17.
