The Super Bowl of beauty is here — the 2021 Met Gala has officially kicked off, and it's stacking up to be everything we were hoping for and more. Especially now that Billie Eilish has arrived. The Happier Than Ever singer arrived in a larger-than-life blush ballgown with her newly chopped bob haircut and old Hollywood glam-inspired makeup that screamed Marylin Monroe to us but, apparently, her inspiration came from somewhere else.
During a quick red carpet with host Keke Palmer, Eilish disclosed the inspiration for her stunning look: holiday Barbie. "It was my favourite thing in the world," said Eilish. "I would ask for them for Christmas like every single year. . . Honestly, like, genuinely, that was my inspiration."
Monroe or holiday Barbie — Eilish looks amazing either way. As much as we loved her neon green hair, the new platinum blond bob is making it a bit easier to say goodbye.
