Billie Eilish has been actively supporting Black Lives Matter protests. However, fans are disappointed that there’s another cause she’s been putting a blind eye to. The Bad Guy singer has been following Justin Bieber, Chris Brown and some others. Well, what’s common is that all of these celebrities have been accused of #MeToo.
It all began when a user shared a long-detailed post regarding the cause. Her message read, “If I am friends with your abuser, DM me & that will change. I see you, I hear you, I believe you. Your story matters. Billie reposted this, which has also got the support of her own brother, Finneas O’Connell.
Billie Eilish had posted this on her Instagram story but deleted it after a while. Soon after, fans noticed that she was still following Chris Brown, Justin Bieber amongst other accused assaulters. The singer received massive backlash for the same. Fans expressed their disappointment as they stormed Twitter with opinions.
Several even shared screenshots of Billie Eilish’s following list, highlighting the alleged assaulters. For the unversed, Chris Brown had pleaded guilty of assaulting his ex-girlfriend Rihanna. Just not that, he has multiple times been leveled charges of rape, domestic abuse, and battery. Justin Bieber, who Billie truly is a fan of, was recently accused on Twitter. He announced that he would be taking legal action and rubbished the claims. Ansel Elgort, XXXTentaction remain amongst other men.
Albeit, soon after the backlash, it was noticed that Billie unfollowed Chris Brown and Justin Bieber. Eventually, fans noticed XXXTentaction and Ansel Ansel, were missing from the following list too. However, later it was realized that the ‘No Time To Die’ singer ended up removing everyone from the list.
Basically, Billie Eilish is following no one on her Instagram. Fans have been disappointed and feel her gesture did not really support the #MeToo victims.

who’s gonna tell billie eilish that unfollowing EVERYONE after posting ‘ill unfollow your abuser’ is a bit counterproductive and takes away from any good that would’ve come of her unfollowing chris brown and justin beiber but✨✨✨✨

billie eilish is racist. i can make a thread and show you why she is trending.
billie eilish has also almost said the r*tard slur, lied about being poor, stolen visuals from other artists and openly supported chris brown. #billieeilishisoverparty
