Billie previously told how she dresses in baggier clothes than most pop stars because it helps her to feel what she calls ‘gender euphoria’.
Speaking to Elle magazine, she said: ‘I had a really, really toxic relationship with my body. I had a lot of eating issues. I remember putting on, like, a big shirt and the relief that I felt.’
She cited some of her fashion influences as Harlem fashion influencer Bloody Osiris and hip-hop stars Missy Elliott and Tyler, The Creator as she talked about how her style is a bit of a gender expression for her but didn’t exactly have the best personal feelings about it when it came to her femininity.
The LUNCH hitmaker said: ‘At the same time, it was my love for hip-hop culture and wanting to be a man.
‘This is the misogyny that we all have within us…which is that I didn’t want to be seen as feminine, and therefore weak. It’s not right. I’ve found a good way of not feeling like that.’
The premiere comes as Billie is reportedly in ‘in advanced talks’ to make her big-screen acting debut in an upcoming adaptation of Sylvia Plath’s classic novel, The Bell Jar.
The star would be taking on the tough role of 19-year-old Boston student Esther Greenwood, whose clinical depression lead to a suicide attempt and hospitalization after landing a glamorous internship in New York City 1953.
The plum part is not too much of a stretch for Billie (born O’Connell) – who’s always been open about her lifelong struggle with depression, anxiety and self-harm.
According to Deadline, Focus Features is closing a domestic deal to distribute the film, which will be written and directed by Oscar-winning screenwriter Sarah Polley.

The Bell Jar marks the 47-year-old former child star’s fifth directorial feature after Women Talking (2022), Stories We Tell (2012), Take This Waltz (2011) and Away from Her (2006).
Esther – who received ECT shock therapy – was on a quest to forge her own identity in an oppressive patriarchal society and the book’s title was a metaphor for the suffocating feeling her depression evoked.
The Bell Jar has long been believed to be a semi-autobiographical story as Plath landed an internship at Mademoiselle in 1953 before becoming a patient at the upscale McLean Hospital and taking her own life at age 30.
The posthumous Pulitzer Prize winner published her only book in 1963 under the pseudonym Victoria Lucas before her name was finally attached to the literary work in 1966 internationally and 1971 in the States.
Julia Stiles was previously attached to a Bell Jar movie in 2007 and Dakota Fanning was set to star in Kirsten Dunst’s Bell Jar movie in 2016 – neither of which came to fruition.
