    Billie Eilish ranks people smelling good "No1" in her list of turn-ons

    The 22-year-old 'Bad Guy' singer - whose break-up with her most recent boyfriend, The Neighbourhood frontman Jesse Rutherford, 32, was confirmed by her representative in May 2023 - opened up about her hygiene preference on the latest episode of 30-year-old comic Amelia Dimoldenberg's YouTube interview series 'Chicken Shop Date'.


    Grammy winner Billie said: "(Smell is) kind of No1. I can get around it, but I'm definitely like - that's the first thing I notice.

    "And I have a very strong nose, so if somebody smells good, I like them more."

    Billie went on about what else gets her going when it comes to potential partners: "What turns me on? Passion, dude. It's all about passion."

    She also said about how she gets when she is attracted to someone: "I get absolutely insane. When I was growing up, no one I had a crush on ever had a crush on me back, that I know of. It's demoralising, it's sad.

    "All I do is crush on people - all I do. When I don't have a crush, life feels so empty."

    Billie recently tackled her "uncomfortable" relationship with being in love during a chat with Lana Del Rey, 39, for Interview magazine.

    She said: "I literally hate who I am so much when I'm in love. I really don't like being... I was going to say out of control, but there's ways that I do like being out of control.

    "I have a power issue and a control issue, and I also don't like being vulnerable in a romantic way."

    The singer told Rolling Stone in April: "I plan on never dating again" - before adding: "That's not true, obviously. But no, I don't see myself being serious with anyone until I find someone that really feels right to me, and that is not interesting to me right now."
