Billie Eilish, the 23-year-old Grammy winner known for her outspoken nature, recently criticised Elon Musk in a heated Instagram post.
After sharing slides from My Voice My Choice Org, which highlighted Musk’s massive wealth and how it could be used to support global causes, Eilish called the billionaire a “f-king pathetic p-y bitch coward.”
The slides noted that Musk, identified by Forbes as the first person to reach a net worth of $500 billion, could “end world hunger” with $40 billion annually, “save 10,443 critically endangered species” with $1–2 billion a year, or rebuild Gaza for $53.2 billion.
Eilish expressed frustration that such resources exist while major humanitarian and environmental crises continue.
The Lovely hitmaker has addressed the issue of extreme wealth before. In October, while accepting an honour at the WSJ. Magazine Innovator Awards, she directed comments toward another tech figure, Mark Zuckerberg, questioning the ethics behind holding vast financial power.
“If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?” she asked, adding, “We’re in a time right now where the world is really, really bad and really dark and people need empathy and help more than, kind of, ever, especially in our country.”
She encouraged wealthy individuals to contribute more, saying, “Love you all, but there’s a few people in here that have a lot more money than me. No hate, but yeah, give your money away, shorties.” A source later said Zuckerberg appeared uncomfortable during her remarks.
Eilish’s own actions align with her message. At the same event, it was announced that she donated $11.5 million from her “Hit Me Hard and Soft” tour to groups working on food equity, climate justice, carbon reduction, and climate change efforts.
