Billie Eilish Calls Out 'Nylon' for Cover Story: 'I Did Not Consent in Any Way'

Billie Eilish is calling out Nylon Germany.

The 17-year-old “Bad Guy” singer commented on the latest issue of the magazine, which was published to Instagram on Thursday (August 29) and features a bald 3D artwork version of the star.

“what the f–k is this s–t. 1. i was never approached by nylon about this piece whatsoever. i did not know it was happening nor did anyone on my team. 2. this is not even a real picture of me. i had absolutely no creative input. 3. youre gonna make a picture of me shirtless?? thats not real?? at 17? and make it the cover???? even if the picture was supposed to look like some robot version of me… i did not consent in any way. 4. ANNNDDD YOU’RE GONNA REMOVE ALL MY F–KIN HAIR?
booooooooooo to you🖕🏻,” Billie commented on the post.

The magazine has since updated the post with a statement: “For this cover, it was never our intention to create a look that is confusing or insulting to Billie Eilish. It was only ever our intention to honor Billie‘s impact and her work by creating this avatar which is part of a cover series highlighting the power of digital prodigy artists. This avatar is a piece of 3D artwork created in dedication to her achievements and the positive effect she has had on millions around the globe – including us.“
