The 'Lovely' singer has spoken openly about her disdain for body shamers. As reported by Page Six, Eilish explained in a video for Calvin Klein in May 2019, "I never want the world to know everything about me. I mean, that's why I wear big baggy clothes. Nobody can have an opinion because they haven't seen what's underneath, you know? Nobody can be like 'oh she's slim-thick, she's not slim-thick, she got a flat ass, she got a fat ass.' Nobody can say any of that because they don't know." She also opened up about being s**t-shamed for wearing a bathing suit, saying in April, "I can't win.
