00:00 Top star Billie Eilish just shared how Olivia Rodrigo inspired her to write the song "Goldwing."
00:06 In a recent interview with Variety Magazine, Eilish opened up about growing up in the spotlight,
00:11 saying, "Maybe because my life became so adult very young, I forgot that I was still
00:16 young.
00:17 I settled in a lot of ways.
00:18 I lived my life as if I were in my 70s.
00:21 I realized recently that I don't need to do that."
00:24 So it makes sense that Eilish would feel what she calls a protectiveness over Rodrigo, who
00:28 also reached stardom at an incredibly young age.
00:32 Rodrigo was accepting her first Grammy award after her debut album Sour at just 19 years
00:37 old.
00:38 Eilish spoke on her feelings about Rodrigo in an interview with LA Times, sharing, "I
00:43 have a song called 'Goldwing' from my last album that's kind of about her.
00:47 She was coming up and she was younger than me and nobody had ever been younger than me.
00:52 Olivia was getting big and she was just like this dainty little child.
00:56 I felt so nervous.
00:58 I was worried about her.
00:59 She came up in that acting world and people are so weird.
01:02 I don't know.
01:03 I just felt very protective over her."
