Billie Eilish showed off private tattoo she said public would never see

Billie Eilish has given fans a glimpse of a private tattoo she vowed the public would never see.

The celebrity musician, 23, has always strived to lead a private personal life, to the extent that fans were left guessing as to what her sexuality was for a long time, until she finally opened up about liking women in the wake of her hit single 'LUNCH'.

At the time, Eilish said: "That song [Lunch] was actually part of what helped me become who I am, to be real. I wrote some of it before even doing anything with a girl, and then wrote the rest after.

"I was never planning on talking about my sexuality ever, in a million years. It’s really frustrating to me that it came up.

"I’ve been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just didn’t understand until, last year, I realised I wanted my face in a vagina.

As a woman in the music industry, Eilish has unfortunately been sexualised from a young age, and hiding her body with baggy clothes has been one method by which she attempts to avoid it.

She said: "I never want the world to know everything about me. I mean, that’s why I wear big, baggy clothes.

"Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath, you know?"

She added: "Nobody can be like, 'Oh she’s slim-thick, she’s not slim-thick, she got a flat a**, she got a fat a**.' Nobody can say any of that because they don’t know."

It is for that reason that the 'Birds of a Feather' singer has left fans guessing when it comes to her tattoos, as an alarming amount of the population seems bothered about celebrities and their ink.

While some of you may have already seen that Eilish had tattoos of fairies on her left hand and a dragon on her hip and stomach, another bit of ink has now been seen on her chest, despite her vowing that it would never be seen.

In 2020 said: "I did get a tattoo, but you won't ever see it."

But the singer was pictured in a bikini on an Instagram story from her friend Annabel Zimmer, the daughter of the famed composer Hans, and keen-eyed fans were quick to spot the word 'Eilish' inked under the string of her top.

According to a report from Rolling Stone, she had it done after winning five Grammys in 2020, saying at the time: "Yes, I love myself."
