Billie Eilish Reacts to Rihanna Collaboration Shout-Out
Rihanna name-checked Eilish when asked about a possible dream collaborator during a red carpet interview
Billie Eilish has nine Grammy awards and two Oscars, but those honors pale in comparison to the one she just received: A personal shout-out from Rihanna, who singled out Eilish as an artist she’d love to collaborate with.
Rihanna name-checked Eilish in a recent Access Hollywood interview when asked who her “dream collaborator” would be to sing with. After taking a beat, Rihanna said, “If I could only do a song with Billie Eilish. She’s so good.”
The clip was (understandably) picked up by an Eilish fan account on Instagram, which Eilish herself posted on her Instagram Story along with the very reasonable reaction caption: “What in the absolute fuck oh my god what the fuck.”
Who knows if this will actually happen, but if it does, and it means we have to wait a little longer for R9, well, so be it.
As for that long-awaited album, one of the most concrete updates Rihanna offered on the follow-up to 2016’s Anti came earlier this year when she told Extra, “It’s gonna be amazing. It has to be — that is the only reason it’s not out yet. If I’m not feeling it and I’m not feeling like it represents the evolution, the time I spent away. There should be a show of growth, right? I want to play, and I feel like music is a playground, and I want to have fun with it and show truly where I am at.”
Eilish, meanwhile, released her most recent album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, back in May and has spent much of the year touring North America in support of the record. She has a final run of shows scheduled starting next month and ending with a five-night run in her hometown of Los Angeles in December. (Eilish will bring the tour to the U.K., Europe, Australia, and New Zealand next year.)
