Police officers arrived at Billie Eilish’s home in Los Angeles on Wednesday after a prankster alleged to authorities that the singer was in trouble. According to TMZ, several Glendale P.D. squad cars ascended on the home to check on Eilish’s wellbeing. There, they spoke with members of Billie’s team and determined everything to be alright.
Despite Wednesday’s incident being a false alarm, Eilish is better safe than sorry considering a recent scare at her home. Eilish got a 5-year restraining order against Christopher Anderson after he allegedly broke into the family home, last month. Anderson professed his love for the 21-year-old singer. Her mom, dad, and brother, Finneas are also protected by the restraining order. Police were most recently called to the house on January 5 after someone was trying to scale the fence to get into the property.

Eilish also recently discussed the online hate she receives while speaking with Lana Del Rey for Interview magazine. In the piece, she reflected on her reaction to a TikTok post accusing her of being a “horrible person.” “I have this inevitable feeling of, ‘Oh, everyone hates me,’ ” Eilish confessed. “With the world of TikTok and social media, there is a level where it’s kind of true, because there are these videos. I’m lying in bed last night, and I go on TikTok because I’m falling asleep, and I just want to be mindless for a second, watch some funny videos,” she said. “I keep scrolling and I’m thinking, ‘Billie, put your phone away. You’re getting tired.’ Then I swipe to the next one and it’s a video with millions of likes and it’s something about how I’m a horrible person. And all these comments are like, ‘I’m so glad that you guys are seeing through her.’ And I’m like, ‘Damn.’ “
A similar police-related issue recently plagued Britney Spears. Fans called cops to the singer’s house after she deleted her Instagram page. Spears ended up being totally fine and the police left without worry. Spears later explained deleting the page. She wrote on Twitter: “There were too many people saying I looked like an idiot dancing and that I looked crazy.”
