Apart from her personal life, Eilish’s career has continued to flourish. Recently, she posted a carousel of pictures to celebrate her most recent song, “What Was I Made For?”, which has been included in the incredibly successful Greta Gerwig-directed Barbie movie.

During a recent chat with Apple Music 1 host Zane Lowe, Eilish shared how her and her brother Finneas’ frustration with songwriting sparked the creation of the track. “We were really in a zone of feeling like we lost it and feeling like, ‘Man, I don’t know if we can do this anymore.’ And we were like, I was 15 years old, 16, 17, and he’s a teenager, you can imagine my thoughts of doubt. Like, ‘Oh, I can’t do this anymore,’ ” Eilish said.

She went on, stressing that director Gerwig “just pulled it out of me, I don’t know.” Eilish continued: “I really don’t mean this to come off a conceited way at all, but I do this thing where I make stuff that I don’t even know is … like I’m writing for myself and I don’t even know it,” she said. “It is one of the most incredible things I get to experience in my life. Dude, the next week I was playing it in the car all day and playing it for everybody. And I was like, ‘This is exactly how I feel. And I didn’t even mean to be saying it.'”
