Billie Eilish learned the hard way that you
should NEVER, under any circumstances, anger
One Direction fans, after she was dragged
online for liking a post that shaded a few
of the band’s former members.
What’s up y’all, it’s Emile Ennis Jr.
bringing you all the news updates here from
my in-home Clevver studio as we continue to
practice social distancing.
Speaking of, Billie Eilish may want to social
distance herself from liking photos for the
sake of her sanity.
Cancel culture is still alive and well, and
Billie is living, walking proof of that as
One Direction fans are out for blood.
But really quickly, before I get into all
the details, don’t forget to subscribe to
our channel to stay up-to-date on all the
latest Hollywood news because we’re breaking
it all down for you right here, every day
of the week.
So now that the world is on lockdown, we’ve
basically all turned to social media to help
distract us from the outside world.
But sometimes we all tend to go a little ‘like’
happy and not actually realize that a post
we simply thought was funny, was perceived
as rude or offensive to others… particularly
Directioners.
One Direction fans were up in arms after noticing
that Billie had ‘liked’ a photo that features
side-by-side photos of Zayn Malik and Louis
Tomlinson from the “You And I” music video,
with the comment, “when you move and the
snapchat filter comes off.”
So to sum up, Billie unknowingly just liked
a photo calling Louis ‘ugly’ that would
cause fans to attempt to ‘cancel’ her
via social media, so much so, that the hashtag
#BillieEilishIsOverParty began trending on
Twitter.
Fans began dragging Billie after thinking
she actually meant to call Louis ugly, posting
comments like, “You don't have to love him
but at least you will respect him.
Don't mess with us.
#WeLoveLouis #BillieEilishIsOverParty”
Another user took things to the extreme, tweeting,
“If Louis Tomlinson is ugly then what is
Billie without makeup?
Super extra motherfucking ugly?”
Ok so they didn’t need to go that far, but
on that note, I wanna address something really
quick.
I personally think that ‘cancel culture’
should be cancelled in and of itself, and
it seems to be just another excuse for online
bullying more than anything, but I’m curious
to hear what you guys think…
Are fans being too harsh on celebrities for
‘liking’ a post that had nothing to do
with the actual subject of the meme itself?
Join in on the conversation down in the comments.
Thankfully, there are thousands of fans coming
to Billie’s defense after seeing what was
trending.
One user tweeted that the meme was so funny
that even Louis and Zayn probably got a kick
out of it, saying, “bruh y’all rly tryna
cancel an 18 year old because she liked a
genuinely funny meme about zayn and louis,
bruh i bet they both laughed at it.”
Another fan suggested that instead of dragging
Billie, maybe start supporting the guys and
buying their albums, writing, “No hate but
Niall, Louis and Liam’s fans should focus
on buying their albums and music rather than
trending something on Twitter.
In the end none of this will affect Billie.
Twitter has no impact.”
So let’s be real: Louis is probably completely
unphased by the whole thing, because the truth
of the matter is that he’s an attractive
guy, and anyone who actually believed that
wouldn’t even be bothered.
This fan summed it up perfectly, writing,
“When the snapchat filter comes off and
you look exactly the same because you're a
devilishly handsome man.”
Case closed.
This seems to be the week of “let’s all
drag Billie for no reason” because aside
from Directioners, Bhad Bhabie AKA Danielle
Bregoli also had a bone to pick with her.
During an Instagram Live, Danielle was asked
by a fan if she and Billie are friends, to
which she revealed QUOTE, “I think I’m
friends with her.
I don’t know if Billie is my friend.
Every time I DM her and give my number she
just doesn’t text me, so I don’t know.
I guess that’s what happens when bitches
get famous.
It be like that.”
Billie has yet to respond to Danielle’s
comments or Directioners and I highly doubt
she will at all because there are a lot more
pressing issues to be worrying about…
So maybe if you’re all up in arms over Billie
liking a comical post, I suggest taking a
walk, reading a book or taking on a new hobby…
Social media is great and all, but sometimes
we all need to take a step back and realize
what is most important here.

unsuccessful at sliding into Billie’s DMs.
