JAKARTA - Singer Billie Eilish apologized to netizens following the circulation of a video on TikTok social media.
Recently, a compilation video featured Billie Eilish singing Tyler, the Creator's song Fish in lipsync. This song has lyrics that mock Asian people.
Through his Instagram Story on Monday, June 21, the singer of Lost Cause straightened the video that his fans were talking about.
“There was a video of when I was 13 or 14 years old when I sang the words of a song I didn't know at the time that the words were condescending to Asians.”
He said the words he only heard through the song Fish and never used in his daily life. “Despite my age and ignorance, there is no reason not to call this act painful. So I'm sorry."
“The other video is an edited clip of me talking in a made-up voice… something I've been doing since I was little and when I talk to pets, friends and family. This is of course made up and just a joke, not to copy anyone's language, accent or culture."
Furthermore, Eilish always tries to make her platform a place of mutual respect for one another.
"I have to continue the conversation, listen, and learn. I hear you guys and I love you. Thanks for reading this."
