After taking home five Grammy Awards at the 2020 edition of music’s biggest night, Billie Eilish told the press room, “We made this album in a bedroom in our house that we grew up in, so it’s really like anything is possible.” “Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry” charts the teen’s meteoric rise to the fame, all the way from recording her debut album, “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” to selling out arenas and winning Grammy after Grammy.
A spot for the upcoming Apple TV+ doc sees the musician working on songs and connecting with friends and family. “I really don’t know how any artist of any age is doing it without a parent,” says Eilish’s mother, former Broadway performer Maggie Baird. She emphasizes, “It is a horrible time to be a teenager. Kids are depressed.”
Eilish relates to the struggles her fans are facing. “I look into the crowd and I see every single person is going through something, and I have the same problems,” she explains. “I was like, why don’t I turn this into art instead of just living with it?”
“Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry” hits theaters and Apple TV+ February 26.
