Billie Eilish gets love from ‘The Office’ actress after debut album drops
It seems like everyone is as obsessed with Billie Eilish as we are. The singer just released her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? and got support from an unlikely fan — Angela from The Office.
On one of Eilish’s new tracks, she shows her fandom of The Office by sampling snippets from the show in her song “My Strange Addiction.”

Angela Kinsey, who plays Angela on the show, took to Instagram to congradulate Eilish on the album following its release.
Kinsey shared a photo of her with the 17-year-old musician, and even referred to herself as Eilish’s mom.
“We met at the San Francisco airport awhile back and I’m a dinosaur so I had no idea how talented you are!!” the caption reads. “I have loved catching up with you on Instagram. And the song My Strange Addiction has a nice lil’ snippet from Threat Level Midnight! Your #theoffice Mom is over here rooting for you! Way to go!”
In other news, Eilish blessed us with another weirdly iconic music video for her track “bad guy.” You can watch that below.
She also condemned glamorizing drug use and peer pressure when talking about her song “Xanny” from the album.
“I know people around you doing that shit makes you want to, but you don’t have to,” Eilish says of the song. “I don’t want my friends to die anymore.”
You can listen to “Xanny” below.
