Singing sensation Billie Eilish, who is currently in the UK on her world tour for her second album, has referenced Johnny Depp’s defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard in a new song that she performed to fans during her UK tour.
The 20-year-old singer debuted a new song titled “TV” as she performed at Manchester’s AO Arena on Tuesday (7 June).
The track – which is yet to be released – is a slow, melancholy number with lyrics that reference the bombshell Depp v Heard trial that came to an end last week.
“The internet’s gone wild watching movie stars on trial, while they’re overturning Roe v Wade,” Eilish sang while sat on a stool opposite her brother and collaborator Finneas who played the acoustic guitar.
The “bad guy” singer introduced the track, telling the crowd: “This is one we just wrote, and we just wanted to play for you.”
The Pirates of the Caribbean star has won his high-profile defamation case against ex-wife Heard. Depp has been in the UK performing concerts with musician Beck. The two recently announced they will be releasing a new album next month.
