Billie Eilish has confirmed what her three tattoos are and revealed whether or not she will get any more tattoos in the future.

In 2019, during Vanity Fair's Billie Eilish: Same Interview, Third Year, Billie was asked: "What will you embark on for the first time?" Billie responded: "A tattoo maybe... No face tattoos. The only tattoos I wanna get are the ones that barely anyone can see." Then, in Vanity Fair's Same Interview, Fourth Year, Billie teased: "I did get a tattoo but you won't ever see it."

In Vanity Fair's Same Interview, Fifth Year, Billie explains: "I have three tattoos now." Pointing to the centre of her chest, she says: "I have one here that says 'Eilish'. Yes, I love myself." Billie then points to just beneath her right ribcage and adds: "I have one here. Big boy here, which is a dragon. I got the dragon right after last year's."

Finally, Billie shows off her left hand and reveals: "I just got this a few weeks ago, which is some fairies that are from a book that I had growing up. A little fairy book called Fairyopolis." Billie continues: "They're like my little guardian angel fairies."

As for if she'll get more tattoos, Billie says: "I love tattoos. My mum has her hands on her head. My mum hates tattoos. No, I'm not gonna be all tatted up but I have some more ideas. Right now, I feel pretty satisfied. I feel like in a good zone with them. I felt the urge for a while and now I'm like. Give me a little more time and then I'll get another one."
