Alicia Keys' Son Is Also A Billie Eilish Fan
Keys revealed to the TV show host that his son was also a fan of Billie Eilish and dropped her a voice message from his mother's phone. The singer confessed, "He just asked me every single day, 'Mom, can I please leave her a voice message?' And I'm like, 'I don't know.' Like, what kind of voice message are you gonna leave her? He was like, 'I'm just gonna say, like, I would like to be friends, and I really like her music.' And so he leaves her this whole message after harassing me for days and days on end. And then he continued to harass me [about] if she wrote him a message back."
She further added, "And so every night I couldn't go to sleep, he wakes me up in the morning. In the nighttime, he won't go to sleep. 'Did she write me? Did she write me? Did she write me? Did she leave me a message?' She left him a message. Can you believe it? It was so sweet. ... Big love to Billie and Taylor."
