- [Interviewer] We are
here with Billie Eilish
on the Grammys carpet.
You have said that you have
grown up watching this show.
Now that you're on the carpet,
is this what you expected it to be like?
- Kinda.
I mean, kinda.
It's crazy to be on the other side though,
which is something I never
would've expected in my life.
It feels like I'm in a movie right now.
Or, it feels like I
was let in by accident.
That's, like, the vibe I got.
I'm like, "Wow, I'm not meant to be here.
"This is like, 'No one wants me here.'"
That's how I feel.
But, I'm so grateful to
be here at the Grammys.
I've watched this every
single year in my whole life
with my family in my living room,
so it's literally like
completely surreal to be here.
- [Interviewer] That is so wild.
You just said, "It feels like a movie."
You have a documentary coming up.
Are you gonna watch it
before it comes out?
- Girl, I hope so 'cause
I better get some say
in what's in it and what's not.
Dude, they have filmed
some stuff that I'm like,
"Please don't put that in there." (laughs)
Like, just me being annoying or whatever.
But yeah, I'll watch it.
I'll watch it, for sure.
I'm excited.
- [Interviewer] Do you
feel like there's anything
that we don't know about you yet?
- Hella (beep).
Hella (beep).
Dude, hella (beep).
- [Interviewer] So I know you and Finneas,
you're working on your
next album on the road
and he was telling me a little bit
about how that creative process
has changed things for you.
How does that feel
compared to working on your parents' home?
- It used to feel really different,
but I think now it's pretty
the same, all around.
It really feels genuine and
natural when we work together.
I think for a while it was,
like, we only could
make music in our house,
in the bedroom that we grew up in
and now I feel like we're at this place
where it's like we could
just do it anywhere.
We're, like, I don't know.
It feels good, it feels good.
I'm ready to go on tour and make an album.
I'm ready and I'm excited.
- [Interviewer] That's so awesome.
In between now and then,
do you plan to release more one-offs?
What's your strategy looking like?
- If I have them, sure.
I don't really know what's coming.
I'm kind of just doing what I feel
and while doing that thinking
about making an album,
but it's not done at all.
It's, like, a couple
songs, maybe, maybe not.
So, I'm just gonna go with
whatever happens, you know?
- [Interviewer] I love that.
The last time we spoke, you told me
that you don't really feel
like anything is off limits.
Is there a major goal you have for 2020?
You mentioned designing a car,
but I'm wondering if there's
something on your mind.
- Listen, I would love to
do that when the time comes,
if that ever happens, I would love it.
I got a lotta goals.
I think they're mostly goals
within myself, you know?
Instead of actual,
achievable, physical goals,
I think they're more mental,
one being just be in everything.
I realized a couple months ago
that I'm in the period of my life
that I'm gonna miss, I think.
I'm kind of, I don't know,
life is kinda perfect for me right now,
to be honest with you and I
feel like I can say that now
because it wasn't for a really long time
and, like, now I'm not lying, you know?
So, yeah.
- [Interviewer] Why do you
think it's so important for you
to be really open about mental health
and especially being on the road
and having this crazy life that you have?
- I don't know, I haven't
really thought about it.
I kind of just, I just share
what I feel like I would wanna hear
and I think people are really
ignorant about mental health
and about age with mental health
and I think people think
that a lot of younger people
can't be upset about life (chuckles)
and I think that's
super wrong and I wanna,
like, teach the world
that it's, I don't know.
I don't know, it's hard.
It's like you gotta do
what is right for you.
I'm not gonna tell you to go
tell everybody how you feel
and I'm not gonna tell
you to not tell anybody.
It's just, like, whatever you feel
is the right thing for you,
you gotta do that for yourself.
Like, whatever makes you
happy, that's all you gotta do.
Don't listen to anybody else.
- [Interviewer] Well,
we're all so appreciative
that you bring that
mentality to this industry
and congratulations and
have so much fun tonight.
- I will.
Thank you, you too.
- Of course.
- Thank you guys.
- [Interviewer] Yeah.
- [Billie] Hey!
