Origins and Development of the Collaboration
Hints of this project first emerged in July, when Eilish shared with a Manchester audience that she was working on something unique with the director of Avatar and Titanic. She explained that her repeated outfit choices during the Manchester concerts were necessary because of an ongoing creative endeavor with Cameron, adding intrigue and anticipation among her fanbase.
“Basically, I can’t say much about it but what I can say is that I’m working on something very, very special with somebody named James Cameron and it’s going to be in 3D. So, take that as you will and these four shows here in Manchester, you and me are part of a thing that I am making with him. He’s in this audience somewhere, just saying. So don’t mind that, and also I’ll probably be wearing this exact outfit for like four days in a row,”
she told the crowd. – Billie Eilish, Artist
