Billie Eilish turned 18 and men are already getting weird about her

Billie Eilish turned 18 and men are already getting weird about her

Billie Eilish has turned 18 this week, so obviously it's now totally fine to perv on her.

Except, it's really not, and straight men on the internet need to get a grip.

Since her birthday, creepy dudes have been rejoicing in her "turning legal". And we all know what that means.

It's particularly frustrating because Eilish is one of the first female pop starts who has had the autonomy to present herself in a non-sexualised way.

So rare is it to see a young female performer judged on her actual work rather than what she looks like that people have become bizarrely obsessed with her style, which largely involves baggy clothes (much like the ones male singers get to wear to zero furore).

According to some reports, people were searching for her name on PornHub on her birthday. indy100 has obviously been unable to confirm this, but if it's true it is highly disturbing.

And we are not the only ones to think so. Twitter has been awash with outrage about the whole debacle – and rightly so.

Although it was quite enjoyable to see people hilariously mocking the creeps.
