Her first studio album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was released in March 2019 and earned the top spot across global music charts, with idol Justin Bieber even collaborating on a remix of her popular hit Bad Guy.
She received five Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards and One Brit Award for the album which included six top hits.
She released her debut single Ocean Eyes in 2016 and an EP the following year, and has earned seven gold and two platinum singles through the Recording Industry Association of America.
Eilish sang the James Bond theme for No Time To Die, which also became her first No. 1 single in the UK.
Billie was born and raised in the Highland Park area of Los Angeles and began singing at a young age thanks in part to her parents Maggie Baird and Patrick O’Connell, both of which supported her interest in the entertainment industry.
