Billie Eilish says Rihanna is her “complete dream collaboration”.
The ‘Love On The Brain’ hitmaker, 36, recently shared that she would love to collaborate with the ‘Birds of a Feather’ hitmaker, 22, and Billie has now revealed that she has always longed to work with Rihanna but was afraid to say anything in case her “idol” didn’t like her.
She told Complex: “I’ve never met Rihanna. She’s literally my idol. She’s the greatest of all time. She’s my complete dream collab. I don’t even answer that question when people are like, ‘Who would you like to collab with?’ But I always think Rihanna. I’m not going to say that, though! Why would I say that?! It’s not real. I would think, like, ‘She probably doesn’t even like me.’ I’ve never heard from her and I’ve never had any interaction with her, so why would I have ever even thought about it?”
Rihanna declared to Access Hollywood in October: “If I could only do a song with Billie Eilish.”
The ‘Diamonds’ hitmaker appeared to doubt that Billie would work with her because she suspects she is not a fan of “commercial music”.
She continued: “Billie Eilish knows me? Billie is the most anti, coolest girl ever. In my mind she doesn’t listen to commercial music. I feel like she’s just creating her diary vocally. You can feel like she’s just zoned into who she is and what she’s experiencing and what she’s feeling.”

But it turns out, the ‘What Was I Made For?’ singer “would literally do anything” for Rihanna.
Billie enthused: ‘Well, b****, I’ve been sitting here this whole time!’ What the f*** is she even talking about? Honestly. What do you mean, ‘If only?!’ It’s, like, as if I’ve been saying, ‘No.’ Rihanna! RiRi? I’ll literally do anything you want. That’s insane.”
