Billie Eilish recently shared a personal revelation during a conversation about a dream she had years ago that prompted her to end a relationship with her then-boyfriend. The Grammy-winning singer, along with her brother and collaborator, discussed various topics during an interview, including the inspiration behind their hit song 'Ocean Eyes' and their favorite superheroes.
During the interview, Eilish humorously mentioned a dream she had involving actor Christian Bale at a cafe, which led her to the realization that she needed to break up with her boyfriend at the time. She recounted waking up from the dream and coming to her senses about the relationship, leading to the decision to end it.
While Eilish did not specify the identity of the boyfriend in question, reports suggest that she was previously romantically linked to Jesse Rutherford, the lead vocalist of The Neighbourhood. However, their relationship reportedly ended last year.
On a professional note, Eilish and her brother are currently nominated for Best Original Song at the upcoming 96th Academy Awards for their song 'What Was I Made For?' from the soundtrack of the movie 'Barbie.' Additionally, they are scheduled to perform at the awards ceremony on March 10.
The conversation also touched on Eilish's admiration for actor Cillian Murphy and her fondness for the superhero Batman, particularly referencing Bale's portrayal in 'The Dark Knight.' The singer's candid revelation about her dream experience added a personal touch to the interview, showcasing a more introspective side of the acclaimed artist.
