UPDATE (October 19, 2023, 2:40 P.M. EST): Almost a month after teasing her new back tattoo, Billie Eilish has finally revealed it to Instagram fans. The singer posted a photo dump on October 18, and you can see her abstract body art on the fourth slide.
Initially, she had only shared about a fourth of the tattoo which just looked like several thick curved lines and shapes drawn into a random pattern. The full tattoo is a mish-mash of even more abstract lines and shapes that follow the line of her spine all the way down to her lower back. The photo appears to have been taken in the midst of her getting tattooed because nothing was shaded in.
Though she’s finally revealed her body art, I’m still confused as to what it is or means, if anything. Perhaps it has no real significance other than being aesthetic-pleasing to Eilish. Honestly, I want to know how long it took to complete because a spinal tattoo is painful, and this is a pretty big one. I could barely handle when my tattooer was doing mine even though only a portion of the tattoo was on my spine, and it was nowhere near as big as Eilish’s. Clearly, Eilish is a trooper and likely has a much higher pain tolerance than me, so props to her.
