Billie Eilish has sparked speculation she was shading Taylor Swift after she criticized her music industry peers over their ‘wasteful’ practice of releasing numerous vinyl versions of albums to increase sales.

During an interview with Billboard about her sustainability efforts, Eilish remarked ‘some of the biggest artists in the world making f****** 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more’.

Eilish never named Swift or any particular artist, but fans interpreted her comments as a jab at the Love Story songstress as she has released numerous vinyl versions of her albums.

DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Eilish for comment.

‘Swifties and kpop stans found on the floor,’ one X user tweeted.

‘She clocked taylor so bad i’m crying,’ one posted.

‘oh the swifties are going to HATE this,’ another wrote.

‘She cooked Taylor!’ one posted.

Another person pointed out Taylor isn’t the only artist to go down this route: ‘Everyone clocking Taylor for this when we’ve seen artists like Ariana, Olivia, etc. doing the exact same thing now. So let’s not point any fingers…’

One shared video of Billie splattering white paint on her latest album. ‘She was literally doing this for sales calling it “signed”‘, one tweeted.

‘The Taylor diss,’ another posted.

‘Taylor fight back,’ a fan urged.

During her interview with the outlet, Billie criticized ‘big artists’ over their ‘wasteful’ practice of releasing numerous vinyl versions of albums to increase sales.

‘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.’

‘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.

‘And then it’s some of the biggest artists in the world making f****** 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more.’

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.

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.

While the singer refrained from specifying any names, a multitude of well-known artists, including Swift, Travis Scott, Olivia Rodrigo, and Blink-182, have released numerous vinyl versions of their recent albums.

As for how Eilish fans are responded to her sustainability efforts, Eilish’s mom Maggie Baird offered to the outlet: ‘The truth is, you just have to do it anyway.

‘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.’

Towards the ends of the interview, Eilish reflected on the widespread apathy towards the severity of the climate crisis, noting the common sentiment of resignation: ‘What’s the point? We’re all going to die anyway.’

‘Believe me, I feel that way too. But ‘what’s the point’ goes both ways: ‘What’s the point? I can do whatever I want. We’re all going to die anyway.’ Or, ‘What’s the point? I might as well do the right thing while I’m here.’ That’s my view,’ she explained.
