Billie Eilish, the innovative pop sensation with a hauntingly emotive voice, is currently promoting the latest addition to her discography, “HIT ME HARD AND SOFT”, an album currently competing chart wise with Taylor Swift’s latest album, “THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT”, and the competition has taken a controversial turn as Billie is now apparently throwing shade at her direct competitor over the duration of her massively successful Eras Tour.
The so called feud between Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift began a few weeks ago after the release of Taylor’s album when Billie made some indirect remarks about people who release too many variants of their albums, a dig that seemed to be directed to miss Swift, who is notorious for releasing an astonishing amount of variants for her albums, and has been under public scrutiny due to the greediness of this commercial tactic. Curiously enough, when it came to Billie’s album release week, Taylor decided to release three more variants of her album, according to the public, that would be her revenge to Billie’s criticism. Billie, on her part, even after publicly confirming to be against that tactic, also released a few too many variants of her album.
In the newest development of the feud between the two hit makers, Billie Eilish has made some rather unfortunate remarks about concerts that last three hours during a shared voice call in social media. “Doing a three hour show.. That’s literally psychotic. Nobody wants that. You guys don’t want that. I don’t want that. I don’t even want that as a fan. Even my favorite artists I’m not trying to hear them for three hours. That’s far too long. That’s literally psychotic” were her exact words. This was taken as a very specific dig at Taylor Swift due to her Eras Tour having a three and a half hour run time.
Billie Eilish seemingly shares her thoughts on Stationhead about ‘The Eras Tour’ and ‘The Renaissance Tour’ earlier today, the only recent high-profile tours to span 3 or more hours:

What do you think? Was Taylor trying to overshadow Billie during her album release week, and this is Billie’s revenge? Would you attend a three hour long concert?
