While her reasons for doing so are many and varied, having as much to do with her own negative self-perception of her body than what anyone else thinks, she quickly became a statement about how women are perceived and objectified in the spotlight, in the media and on social media.
When a short clip of her in a tank top surfaced online while she was still underage, there was a disturbing sexualization of the image and of Eilish herself. And yet, she even found herself struggling underneath her baggy style to fully express herself, fearing and accurately anticipating a backlash should she shift gears and choose to dress provocatively -- or even in a more typical fashion for a young teenager.
In other words, what if -- as she did in one Instagram clip -- she wore a swimsuit to swim, or go rafting? What if in that swimsuit, the curves of her body were visible? Should she now be slut-shamed? Should she be told she's trying to titillate her male fans? Should she be shamed by showing her body ?
And so, fully grappling with all the complexities of what it means to be a young woman coming into her adulthood and her sexuality, Eilish assaulted her fans with a visual and auditory tour de force in less than four minutes.
