In a new interview with The LA Times, Billie was asked about the recent success of Sabrina, Chappell and Charli and if she ever feels "threatened" by them. Reacting in shock, Billie immediately dismissed the premise of the question and said: "Are you kidding me? I’m so happy for these b-----s."

Billie then praised Sabrina, Chappell and Charli as artists saying: "It’s a crazy world when you get to the level they’re experiencing right now, and they’re doing great. Fans are drawn to them because they’re f---ing awesome.”

Seeing the quotes go viral on X/Twitter, Charli reacted by writing: "pausing from brat completely different chaos to just say lol this is a crazy question !"

Billie and Charli actually recently collabed on the UK Number 1 single 'Guess' and are friends in real life. Billie has also released one of the biggest albums of the year in the form of 'HIT ME HARD AND SOFT' and her single 'BIRDS OF A FEATHER' has been streamed over one billion times on Spotify alone.

Elsewhere, Billie opened up about struggling with her age. She said: "I’m finding I’m having kind of a hard, weird time being in my 20s. I just didn’t ever think about how I wouldn’t be the youngest person in the room forever."

She added: "At the same time, fame really stunts you. So I find myself acting like a kid sometimes because I’m like, ‘Yeah, I got frozen in time.’ When I see other pop stars, I see that they’re still 16 a little bit."
