Billie Eilish shares anti-body shaming short film, 'Not My Responsibility'
"If I wear more, if I wear less, who decides what that makes me?"
Billie Eilish has shared a new short film, titled "Not My Responsibility."
The clip finds the "bad guy" singer delivering a spoken word performance on the dangers of body shaming as she herself removes layers of her clothing, all while sinking into a dark liquid.
"We make assumptions about people based on their size," Eilish says in the video.
"We decide who they are. We decide what they're worth," she continues. "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 film originally premiered earlier this year during Eilish's North American tour, which got cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You can now watch it streaming on YouTube.
