\u201cIf that footage was hard for u to watch, I encourage u to pls take a look at [yourself]. Like I am so tired of standing up for\/having empathy for living beings being controversial.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Please] continue to live in a constant state of cognitive dissonance and denial and try to convince urself that [you\u2019re] not living a lie.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eilish\u2019s posts come after she spoke about her diet in a video interview with Elle magazine.<\/p>\n
The singer was asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s one hill you\u2019d die on?\u201d and she replied: \u201cYa\u2019ll ain\u2019t gonna like me for this one. Eating meat is inherently wrong.<\/p>\n
\u201cTwo things cannot coincide: \u2018I love all animals so much and I eat meat\u2019. Sorry \u2013 you could eat meat, go for it, you could love animals, but you can\u2019t do both.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eilish, who recently released a new concert movie Billie Eilish: Hit Me Hard and Soft \u2013 The Tour Live in 3D, previously opened up about her stance on eating meat in a post on her Instagram Stories alongside footage taken at a US dairy farm.<\/p>\n
She wrote: \u201cI keep my mouth shut most of the time about this because I believe everyone should do, eat, and say whatever they want \u2026 and I don\u2019t feel the need to shove what I believe in in anyone\u2019s face.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut man \u2026 if you can watch the videos that I just posted and not give a f*** that it\u2019s YOU contributing by LITERALLY EATING the creatures that are being fully tortured just for your pleasure. I feel sorry for you.<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand that meat tastes good \u2026 and I know you think you\u2019re just one person and it \u2018won\u2019t change anything if you stop\u2019. But that\u2019s ignorant and stupid.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you have half a brain, you should know \u2018one person\u2019 adds up.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cIf that footage was hard for u to watch, I encourage u to pls take a look at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":659998,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,86463,63499,318917,1461,318915,134,318916,1460,14751,136,445,8936,285912,12529,9501,319,145884],"class_list":["post-659997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-backlash","tag-billie","tag-declaration","tag-eating","tag-eilish","tag-entertainment","tag-inherently","tag-is","tag-meat","tag-music","tag-online","tag-over","tag-responded","tag-responds","tag-that","tag-to","tag-wrong"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/659997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=659997"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/659997\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/659998"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=659997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=659997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=659997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
