‘Bad Guy’ made her good money.
Billie Eilish is not just a musician. She’s also a money-making machine with the net worth to prove it.
The singer—homeschooled by parents in the entertainment business and a frequent collaborator with her producer-singer-songwriting-former Glee actor brother, Finneas O’Connell—became rich and mega-famous within the span of just a few years. As a result of coming into her fortune so young (she hit it big at just 16 years old!), managing her money isn’t always easy.
“I don’t know what things cost because I’ve never been an adult before. And, you know, I grew up with no money…It’s a really weird position I’m in. I feel kind of stupid because I’m like, I don’t know how much Froot Loops are,” she admitted to Vanity Fair. “I tried to order one box of Froot Loops and I was like, ‘Oh yeah, sure. It’s $35.’ I didn’t know that that’s expensive. I ordered 70 boxes.”
On the bright side, the “Lunch” singer can afford a lot of Froot Loops now—and as you’ll find out below in our rundown of her net worth, she managed to accrue about half of her millions in one fell swoop when she signed on for the 2021 Apple TV+ documentary, Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry. More recently, her latest studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, led to her best-selling week ever (more on that later!).
