Billie Eilish Quiz β A Bedroom Studio to the Oscars
Billie Eilish is one of the most successful young artists in music history. Born in Los Angeles in 2001, she grew up in a musical family and was homeschooled alongside her older brother, Finneas. The two wrote and recorded songs together in Finneas's small bedroom, a partnership that still shapes all of her music.
Her career began almost by accident. In 2015 she uploaded Ocean Eyes to SoundCloud so her dance teacher could use it for a routine. The song spread quickly, record labels took notice and by 2019 her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, topped charts around the world.
That album produced Bad Guy, her first number one in the United States, and led to a historic night at the 2020 Grammys, where she won all four of the main awards. Her later albums, Happier Than Ever and Hit Me Hard and Soft, showed new sides of her songwriting, and Birds of a Feather became a global streaming hit.
Billie has also made her mark in film. With Finneas she wrote No Time to Die for the James Bond franchise and What Was I Made For? for Barbie, winning an Oscar for each before turning 23.
She is known for speaking openly about mental health and Tourette syndrome, and for her support of climate action and animal welfare. Her changing styles, from baggy clothes and green roots to classic Hollywood glamour, are followed closely by fans.
This quiz covers her songs, albums, awards and personal story, with an explanation for every answer.
