Billie Eilish and America Ferrera embrace on the 2024 Academy Awards red carpet. After posing with her brother Finneas, Billie hugs America and poses for a couple photos with the 'Barbie' star.

Billie Eilish criticized her music industry peers over their 'wasteful' practice of releasing numerous vinyl versions of albums to increase sales.

'I can't even express to you how wasteful it is,' she continued. 'I find it really frustrating as somebody who really goes out of my way to be sustainable and do the best that I can and try to involve everybody in my team in being sustainable. 'For some reason, it's very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging,' she claimed. 'Which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more' pictured Happier Than Ever album cover

Eilish went on to say that she finds it 'so wasteful' and 'irritating' to witness 'all your favorite artists doing that s***', prioritizing their sales figures and financial gains above all else. 'Artists can cast a giant shadow of influence. If you're not perfect, but you are influencing many, many, many people to do better, it's multiplied hundreds of times.'

The Bad Guy singer is not exempt from this practice as her latest studio album, Happier Than Ever, was available in eight different vinyl variations. However, the variants were '100% recycled black vinyl, plus recycled scraps for colored variants and shrink-wrap made from sugar cane,' according to Billboard
