She added: “I have deep connections with women in my life, the friends in my life, the family in my life. I'm physically attracted to them, but I'm also so intimidated by them and their beauty and their presence.”

In the past, Billie has avoided questions about her sexuality, stating it was "nobody's business". She also criticized the media for not having the "same energy" when questioning men's sexuality.

The Bad Guy singer has also faced accusations of queerbaiting from her fans.

While promoting her song Lost Cause, she shared a series of photos with a group of women, captioned "I love girls", which received some critical comments from her followers.

The 21-year-old pop sensation also opened up about her gender identity and the sexualization she's faced since her career took off in 2017.

Known for her signature baggy outfits, Billie admitted: "Maybe my not really caring about being sexualized is because I've never felt desired or desirable.

“I've never felt like a woman, to be honest with you [...] I've never felt feminine. I have to convince myself that I'm, like, a pretty girl.”

She also confirmed that she “identifies as she/her” but has “never really felt like a girl.”
