Bambino 23,241 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Billie Eilish is accused of being a zionist after she shared a promotional video for her new album Happier Than Ever for her Israel fans. In the 20-second clip, the singer could be seen saying "hi Israel" which did not settle well with a lot of fans. "Hi Israel, I’m so excited that my new album, Happier Than Ever, is out now," she said. Her words were met with a barrage of criticism with many asking her to "educate yourself" regarding the Palestinian-Israel conflict, which has seen a wave of support from other celebrities like supermodel sisters Bella Hadid and Gigi Hadid. One responder wrote: "Educate yourself and see what Israel are doing for Palestinian children." Another wrote "Billie, it’s occupied Palestinian land, not Israel." "Billie Eilish being a zionist is literally not surprising at all," a third wrote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galagala 4,435 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I believe these "backlash" are coming from just some delusional haters/fans. It's like "hi, China!" and then people accused you of supporting a government which tortured the Xinjiang people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSlash 14,539 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Honestly, I don't even know if I should laugh or cry at this point . Some are just desperately searching for a reason to get her canceled . Not that they're wrong (I'm honestly not into the conflict, so I just guess), but she just promotes her album, let her do it in peace. Ew, David!

This is a time where the whole world is acting up to the fact that Israel is an occupying, racist state. On the other than, thanks to this mess, I now know she has a new album.

People aware of the existence of a colonial apartheid system oppressing unarmed Palestinians are now called haters? Okay Galagalala. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you're not into this conflict, better say nothing at all then. This isn't some Hollywood movie that you should or shouldn't be into. Do some research.

Togekiss 1,715 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Is Israel that big of a market for her to necessitate this? I don’t agree that this automatically means she’s a Zionist but like… if it could have been avoided that might have been a good idea. bring on that pecan pie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
