00:00 Fans of Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift are buzzing with rumors of a feud between the
00:04 two stars.
00:05 Here's a quick timeline of the drama that sparked these suspicions.
00:10 The first instance of alleged "shade" that fans pointed out occurred in an interview
00:14 Billie Eilish did with Billboard back in March of this year.
00:17 While talking about using recycled vinyl, Eilish expressed her frustration with other
00:21 huge artists not making the same efforts, sharing, "Some of the biggest artists in
00:26 the world making f***ing 40 different vinyl packages that have a unique thing just to
00:30 get you to keep buying more.
00:32 It's so wasteful and it's irritating to me."
00:35 Many fans were suspicious Eilish's words were a dig at Taylor Swift, who is known to
00:40 release multiple vinyl variants, but Eilish denied this outright on Instagram, writing,
00:45 "I wasn't singling anyone out.
00:47 These are industry-wide issues.
00:48 The climate crisis is now and it's about all of us being a part of the problem and
00:52 trying to do better."
00:54 Then we fast forward to May, when Eilish fans called out Swift for announcing three new
00:58 digital versions of the Tortured Poets department, which dropped the same day as Eilish's new
01:03 album, Hit Me Hard & Soft.
01:06 Fans accused Swift of trying to block Hit Me Hard & Soft from rising through the charts,
01:11 but many Swifties believed the releases were just a coincidence.
01:15 Most recently, however, in a livestream on the Stationhead app, when asked if she would
01:19 ever put on a show comparable in length to Taylor Swift's Aries Tour concerts, Eilish
01:24 had this to say.
01:25 "I'm not doing a three hour show.
01:27 That's literally psychotic.
01:29 Nobody wants that.
01:30 You guys don't want that.
01:31 I don't want that.
01:32 You know what I'm saying?
01:33 I don't even want that as a fan.
01:34 My favorite artists in the world, I'm not trying to hear them for three hours.
01:37 You know what I mean?
01:38 It's far too long."
01:39 Many saw this as another dig at the Bad Blood singer, but the rumors of beef remain just
01:45 that, rumors for now.
