Billie Eilish Calls Out 'Nylon' Germany for Cover Story

Billie Eilish is calling out Nylon Germany 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.“
