Billie Eilish pauses concert midway to express disappointment over Trump’s return to White House
'Bad Guy’ hitmaker Billie Eilish paused her Nashville concert midway to express her disappointment over Donald Trump's victory.
Alicia Keys recently shared an endearing tale about her son’s determination to befriend none other than Billie Eilish. During a candid chat with her hair and makeup team, Keys revealed how her nine-year-old son, Genesis Dean, persistently nudged her to facilitate a connection with the renowned singer.
Laughing off her son’s boldness, Keys recounted how Genesis, after three days of relentless pestering, finally convinced her to send Eilish a video introduction. In the video, Genesis charmingly expressed his admiration for Eilish’s music, identifying himself as Alicia Keys’ son. Keys couldn’t help but chuckle as she watched her son’s audacious gesture with her beauty team, sharing the accompanying message she sent to Eilish, hoping to bring a smile to her face.

However, Genesis wasn’t content with just one attempt. Much to his mother’s chagrin, he took matters into his own hands and sent a simple “Hi” from Keys’ phone, prompting her to caution him not to overwhelm Eilish.

Yet, as Keys prepared for her Super Bowl halftime performance, Genesis’ persistence paid off when Eilish responded with a heartfelt video message, expressing her readiness to befriend him anytime. The excitement was palpable as Eilish, alongside her brother and producing partner Finneas, extended a warm invitation to Genesis, declaring her eagerness to hang out and foster a friendship.
The bond between Alicia and Billie dates back to 2019 when they collaborated on a rendition of Eilish’s hit song “Ocean Eyes” on “The Late Late Show With James Corden.” Their friendship has evidently flourished since then, as evidenced by Eilish’s genuine enthusiasm to embrace Genesis as a friend.
In a heartwarming twist of fate, Genesis’ persistence not only forged a new friendship but also showcased the genuine camaraderie shared between two talented artists. As Keys and Eilish continue to inspire fans with their music, Genesis’ unwavering determination serves as a reminder of the power of genuine connection and the joy of forming meaningful friendships.
