Video: How Billie Eilish harnesses the power of ASMR

A pair of Billie Eilish's sneakers have unexpectedly and hilariously divided the internet.

It all began on Saturday, when Eilish decided to answer fans' questions on her Instagram Story. One person asked about her take on the infamous dress debate — which prompted Eilish to share a similar story.

She posted a video of her Nike Air More Uptempo sneakers, poking fun at her dad for describing them as "pink and white."

Eilish apparently received an influx of messages agreeing with her father, because she went on to post a series of videos proving the shoes to be mint green and white.

She grew increasingly heated as more and more people seemed to side with the "pink and white" camp.

Eilish even shared images of the shoes as they're marketed by Nike. The particular colorway, released in 2017, was described by the brand as "Barely Green."

"Yeah, so, you're ALL going to hell," she joked, telling fans to "suck my d---."

Still, the debate raged on.

Eilish continued to rant about the sneakers on Sunday, enlisting her mom to explain which colors she can see in person. (According to her mother, Maggie Baird, it's "not a white-white, it's a pink-white.")

When her off-camera mom told her to "calm down," Eilish replied, "No dude, I'm still pressed about this. 'Cause the whole internet is gaslighting me!"

The 18-year-old singer even compared the shoe to some of her others, showing the contrast in colors.

"So we all know that I'm right here. Even if you see something else, you know that I'm right underneath it all," Eilish concluded in her final update.

"And real quick," she continued, "before you keep arguing, or whatever the f---, the entire internet's been calling me fat for a week, so let me have this. Let me have this."

Eilish was referring to last week, when she received criticism after wearing tighter clothes than her normally baggy swag. The singer was quickly defended by fans.
