The body functions better when we eat meat. If we cut it out, we’d need to take many supplements & that’s not feasible for most. I’m sure if we didn’t generally need to eat it for better health then we wouldn’t.”<\/p>\n Billie Eilish was called out for her comments towards meat eaters. (Sarah Morris\/WireImage)<\/p>\n This online outrage is just the latest storm Eilish has found herself in this year. In February, Eilish made remarks during her 2026 Grammys acceptance speech<\/a> that got a rise out of some viewers.<\/p>\n Eilish was mocked as a hypocrite for declaring “no one is illegal on stolen land”<\/a> and “f— ICE” while owning a massive Hollywood property.<\/p>\n REPORTER ATTEMPTS TO CONFRONT BILLIE EILISH AT GATED LA MANSION OVER ‘STOLEN LAND’ COMMENTS: ‘LET US IN!’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n “No one is illegal on stolen land,” the 24-year-old “Wildflower” singer said while wearing an “ICE OUT” pin. “I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. Our voices really do matter, and the people matter.”<\/p>\n Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas at the 68th Grammy Awards in February.

(Arturo Holmes\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n “While Hollywood celebrities embarrassed themselves trying to drum up hatred of ICE officers from the Grammys, DHS law enforcement was hard at work arresting sex offenders, child abusers, and criminals convicted of assault in Minnesota,” McLaughlin said.<\/p>\n LIKE WHAT YOU\u2019RE READING?

And it\u2019s really hard to celebrate that when we no longer feel safe in our own homes or in our streets,” Eilish added.<\/p>\n McLaughlin later condemned Billie Eilish in a statement given to Billboard<\/a>.<\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Finneas O’Connell and Billie Eilish attend the 96th Annual Academy Awards in Hollywood, Calif., on March 10, 2024. (Marleen Moise\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n “Clearly, Billie Eilish has not seen the newly released footage, which corroborates what DHS has stated all along \u2014 that this individual was impeding law enforcement and weaponized her vehicle in an attempt to kill or cause bodily harm to federal law enforcement,” McLaughlin said.<\/p>\n “ICE does not separate families,” she added. “Parents are asked if they want to be removed with their children, or ICE will place the children with a safe person the parent designates. This is consistent with past administrations\u2019 immigration enforcement<\/a>. It\u2019s garbage rhetoric from the likes of Billie Eilish that is leading to a 1,300% increase in assaults and 3,200% increase in vehicle rammings against our brave law enforcement.”<\/p>\n![\"Billie](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/billie-eilish-maroon-background.jpg\")
