Billie Eilish accidentally revealed an intimate tattoo that she swore fans would never see.
The 22-year-old singer discussed this in a 2017 interview. “The only tattoos I want to get are the ones that almost no one can see,” she told Vanity Fair.
Three years later, she told the publication that she decided to get a tattoo the day after winning the Grammy Awards. “I got a tattoo, but you’ll never see it,” she said at the time.
In 2021, the singer gave an update to fans, announcing that she had gotten two more tattoos on her body. It turns out that Eilish didn’t fully follow her plan of getting tattoos “that almost no one can see,” as one of them became clearly visible on the side of her hand.
This particular tattoo features a design of some fairies, inspired by a book Eilish had as a child. She also has a tattoo of a dragon on her waist, which she has shown on Instagram, but this was her first tattoo that she swore to keep hidden.
It wasn’t until a few years later that Eilish revealed more details about the secret tattoo, explaining that it is located in the middle of her chest and says “Eilish.” “Yes, I love myself,” she stated.
The tattoo’s position means it is usually covered by clothing, making it easy to hide from the public. However, fans got a glimpse of the artwork thanks to a photo shared by Eilish’s friend Annabel Zimmer, daughter of composer Hans Zimmer.
Annabel posted the photo while enjoying a sunny day with Eilish, who was seen wearing a colorful bikini and sunglasses, smiling and tilting her head toward the sun. The tattoo can be seen in the center of her body, though it’s slightly hidden by the bikini.
