Billie, thank you for coming!
I know that you didn’t need to as it is completely sold out so thank you for finding the time.
It’s very important for me, for all your fans, for the entire country that you’re on the show tonight. Thank you!
I’m so happy to be here.
Thank you, guys, for having me?
You got to help me out.
If this goes wrong my kids won’t let me into the house.
My kids are of various ages: 11, 19 and my wife who’s a bit older.
And all of them listen to your songs, and I listen to your songs. How is this possible?
You tell me
As far as I understand a month ago a big thing in Billie’s life happened.
You got your driver’s license
Yes
So tell me: what music do you listen to now when you’re driving.
I actually listen to myself a lot…driving.
….Me. A lot of me. I mean I like my music.
Speaking of your parents and your music. You recorded the entire album…here it is.
Big and beautiful.
You recorded it today when every label would want to offer you a contract,
you recorded it at home.
At home. In my brother’s bedroom.
On his bed. We didn’t even have a booth.
For those who also want to record an album in their bedroom: what to do to create proper acoustics.
Here’s the thing… people really think that you have to use the studio.
And if you want to use the studio go ahead.
Do that. If that's the kind of thing you want…
if that’s  where you feel most comfortable
and most creative then by all means, that’s what you should do.
But for me …how we literally started it
…cause I write with my brother and he produces it all, we started with Ocean Eyes..
my song which was the first one that got any attention,
we literally stared it in my brother’s bedroom which was like five feet.
It’s so small and there’s no booth,
there’s no sound proofing…
like barely any acoustics at all it’s just..
Did your parents knock on the door saying “keep it quiet”?
It was kind of the other way around. We were always shushing them.
mama, keep it down, I’m recording a hit here!
Yeah
You still live with your Mum and Dad.
Can your mother come and say “Billie, go clean up your room”
” and you go “Mum, I’m busy recording a hit and preparing for the world tour”
07Itkinda does work like that. I mean..but…
I actually love cleaning my room.
Actually I clean my room maybe every day.
So I’m telling myself to clean my room.
Trying to keep up with you,
but if I sit like that I might break my back. Let me try.
My life can change drastically right now.
You look hot
Billie, you know how your fans call themselves in Russia?
And how they call you? You don’t.
They call you and themselves
BELYASH.
BELYASH
They’ve condensed two words Billie Eillish into one and it came out as Belyash
which is a famous Russian dish. I’ll show you.
I want to give you something “useful”:
you don’t speak nor read Russian
and you don’t eat meat and this is a book about how to cook a Belyash which is a meat pie.
We’ll be back after the commercial.
Are we back yet? Oh we are on air!
Billie Eillish is here and
we do what people of our age normally do.
We sit around comfortably as if in the bedroom.
I want to do a simple test with you now.
When we were preparing for your visit our entire team did past the test
and I’d love to know what your result will be.
What % Billie Eilish are you.
Let’s try.
First question: your favourite show:
13 Reasons why, Stranger Things, The Office, American Horror Story,
Brooklyn Nine-Nine or The Walking Dead.
The office
Great. Next one. Which of these celebrities would you want to meet?
Justin Bieber, Tyler, the Creator, Lana Del Rey,
Ariana Grande, Khalid or Cardi B?
I’v met all but one.
Which one?
Who do I want to meet out of the ones I've met?
yes, in case you forgot
I guess for this it would be Bieber.
If I’m  answering the questions to win this, it’s Bieber.
How would your friends describe you?
Funny, caring,  courageous,
loving,  unique , loyal?
Aren’t those all good.
More or less but you have to pick
one to find out what % Billie Eilish are you, Billie.
Wow. Caring sure.
Where would you go on vacation:
Tokyo, London, LA, Sydney,
Beijing, Honolulu.
Strangely Moscow is not on the list…
Honolulu

colorful, trendy.
Out of those anything baggy  I guess.

Eating
Your Mum just laughed somewhere in the distance.
100% Billie Eilish!
Fire. Nice
Now let’s talk specifically about “Bad guy”
as I can not let you go without discussing a very important issue about this song.
The thing is that this song is extremely popular in Russia
because you have a Russian word in it.
You say the word “da”.
In Russian it means “yes”.
Oh…
I guess you meant something else.
We did a very complicated analysis and
we prepared the Russian version of “Bad Guy” for you.
What have we done?
We have removed all English words and
kept only the Russian word.
And we would like to ask you to perform the Russian version of the song.
Shall we?
Let’s do it
That was Billie Eilish! Thank you!
