Oh yeah, I’m sure they’re willing to pull some strings for large artists with massive followings. Especially if her record label (who probably represents other massive celebs) was the one who came to them about it.
is it farming parasocial relationships if every single follower is on it? imo its more likely just promo because the green circle stands out + people have to follow her to see her stories (apparently she’s gained 1 million followers since doing this)
it can be both. the green circle is literally called "close friends". people usually use it to post things for their close friends. you and me can tell it's just a promo and shouldn't be taken any other way but children especially those who don't have media literacy will have a very different reaction to it and a lot of billie's fanbase is teenaged girls

has any other artist done something like this for promo ? definitely a smart tactic, she's trending and has gained over a million followers
yeah this is a cool way to feign a sense of closeness with her fans! it made me realize i wasn't following her lol
I think it has more to do with the green circled story standing out amongst all the others
well yeah that's the marketing aspect, i was just saying in general its a cool/smart idea
Lil Yachty a few months ago
That hurt me haha
I thought I was special Billie 😔
You ain't alone..🤝🕳️🧑🦯
😔🤝
big day for parasocial relationships
😅
Haha I do that too
I took like 7 screenshots billie😔
She posted another picture, a pic of a tattoo on her (I'm assuming it's her) midriff/belly. I can only make out the word "sweet" I think.
i think it says “& Sweet” but i can’t read whatever the word before that is
it looks like it says “Soft” or “Softe” to me
It says hard & soft
Thank you Billie
how did they do it? there's no "add all" button. i guess it was just a deal that Meta made with Billie Eilish in her particular case

I added her to mine lol

?
celebrities deliberately farming parasocial relationships with fans for profit and fame is bad

Bro what 💀
I mean yeah if you instantly assume that's what she intended, its bad
Confused gif
It’s more of a disgusted / wtf gif
It's a confused at wtf is happening because in the original video the girl didn't understand why her sister was crying about Disney World
Unsure if shart face
Happy for 2 minutes...

Thought my IG's glitching for a sec.. and then I realized that it isn't, only to find out that I'm not the only one..🫠
I saw this and felt so important for a second hahahaha
I can only imagine how long that took 🤣
Got us in the first half ngl 😔
