Apart from being a great pop singer, Billie Eilish is a very straightforward and frank person. She is not ashamed of revealing her dark secrets and the mistakes she has made in the past. The 20-year-old singer is well known for her ability to stand up for herself while not being afraid to speak the truth. For example, the media and her fans constantly trolled her for dating Jesse Rutherford, who is 11 years older than her.

When did Billie Eilish start watching porn?

Billie Eilish started watching porn when she was just 11 years old. She opened up about it last year when she appeared on Sirius XM Radio’s “The Howard Stern Show.” This was a couple of weeks before she was going to be 20. The singer called porn a “disgrace” and mentioned that she started watching it from a very young age just to feel like she was cool.

“I think it really destroyed my brain and I feel incredibly devastated that I was exposed to so much porn,” Eilish said according to Reuters. The 7 times Grammy Award-winning singer bravely accepted that she consumed a lot of porn at a very young age, which eventually resulted in messing up her mental health.

Eilish said that consuming a lot of porn gave her nightmares that were impossible to deal with. She also mentioned that some of the pornographic content that she watched was very violent and abusive, stating it to be the main reason behind her nightmares.
