Billie Eilish has shown off the chest tattoo she vowed fans wouldn’t “ever see”.

The ‘Bad Guy’ singer, 21, displayed the small inking in the centre of her torso when she appeared posing in a bikini in a series of pictures posted to Instagram by her friend Annabel Zimmer, the daughter of famed film composer Hans Zimmer.

In 2021, Rolling Stone reported the singer had her last name inked “in an ornate, gothic font” the day after the 2020 Grammys, where she won five awards including Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist.

She told Vanity Fair in a video interview about the inking: “I have one here that says ‘Eilish.’ Yes, I love myself.’”

In May, Billie showed off a huge dragon tattoo after once saying fans would “never” see her body art.

She posted a video on Instagram showing her gyrating as she held onto the arms of a desk chair while revealing the tip of a dragon design and wearing a T-shirt featuring an angel from Raphael’s Sistine Chapel painting.

Billie has several other tatts including “some fairies that are from a book that I had growing up – a little fairy book called ‘Fairyopolis’” on her hand and wrist.

She has said she has three tattoos including a design on her chest “that says ‘Eilish.’”

Despite her new tattoo reveal, she has previously said she valued her privacy.

She said in a 2019 campaign video for Calvin Klein: “I never want the world to know everything about me. I mean, that’s why I wear big baggy clothes.

“Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath, you know?

“Nobody can be like, ‘Oh she’s slim-thick, she’s not slim-thick, she got a flat ass, she got a fat ass.’ Nobody can say any of that because they don’t know.”
