Billie Eilish went ahead and took part in the “Post a Picture Of” Instagram challenge going on right now, and it somehow resulted in her losing 100k followers—seemingly all because she posted some drawings of breasts.
It all started when a fan requested the 10-time Grammy winner share a photo of “a drawing you’re really proud of,” she shared a page from her notebook that featured sets of women’s breasts and what resembled snake-like figures.
In the caption, the 19-year-old wrote, “these probably lol i love boobs.” And while Billie herself found the post hilarious, thousands of her followers did not.
In fact, less than an hour later a diligent Twitter user noticed that the star actually lost about 100,000 followers—from 73 million to 72.9 million—following the Instagram Story.
The 19-year-old, who happens to be one of the most followed people on Instagram, immediately started losing followers because of the nude images. By one fan’s estimate, she lost 100,000, going from 73 million to 72.9 million.
Although the image might have cost her some social media fans, Eilish refuses to let these people dictate how she looks or what she wears. She’s supportive of the magazine for publishing the sexy picture of her because it captures her in a way that she wants her fans to see.
“Suddenly, you’re a hypocrite if you want to show your skin, and you’re easy, and you’re a slut, and you’re a whore,” she said to Vogue. “If I am, then I’m proud. Me and all the girls are hoes and f**k it, you know? Let’s turn it around and be empowered in that. Showing your body and showing your skin – or not – should not take any respect away from you.”
The fan took to Twitter to post their findings along with the caption, “BYE NOT HER LOSING 100K CUZ OF BOOBS.”
Instead of apologizing or taking down the seemingly offensive posts, the “Therefore I Am” singer took a screenshot and posted the tweet to her Instagram Story with the caption, “LMFAOOO y’all babies smh,” with two skull emoji.
