Billie Eilish confirms she came out in a November Variety profile.

 Billie Eilish didn’t realize a recent interview she did would be perceived as a coming out story, but she’s not mad about it. 

 “I didn’t [know I was coming out], but I kinda thought, wasn’t it obvious?” the “bad guy” singer told Variety on the red carpet for the Variety Hitmakers Brunch Saturday. 

 “I didn’t realize people didn’t know,” she said. In a November Variety profile, the 21-year-old said, “I’m physically attracted to [women]. But I’m also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence.” 

 She then elaborated on her comments on the red carpet as she joked, “I’m still scared of [women], but I think they’re pretty.” 

 “I saw the article, and I was like, ‘Oh, I guess I came out today!'” she said with a laugh. “I just don’t really believe in [coming out]. I’m just like, why can’t we just exist? I’ve been doing this for a long time, and I just didn’t talk about it.” 

 “It’s exciting to me because I guess people didn’t know, so it’s cool that they know,” she added while also confirming, “I am for the girls.”
