Billie Eilish and Finneas Refute Rift, Explain Tour Absence in Elle Interview

They describe his nonparticipation as a mutual career choice tied to his solo work.

Overview

  • Eilish, in an Elle cover story published Tuesday, said talk of a “falling-out” with her brother was untrue.
  • Both said his decision to skip the Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour grew from his solo commitments and his dislike of long tours.
  • Finneas backed the tour with a good-luck letter, attended several dates, and joined her onstage for select songs.
  • A concert film, Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live in 3D), co-directed with James Cameron, reaches theaters May 8.
  • The pair remain core collaborators, fresh off a 2026 Grammy Song of the Year win for “Wildflower” that made them three-time winners.
