Billie Eilish tests ‘The Office’ fandom with Rainn Wilson
We’ve learned a lot about Billie Eilish since she dropped her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, one of those things being that she’s a huge fan of The Office.
Eilish sampled the show in “My Strange Addiction,” which caught the attention of Angela Kinsey, who plays Angela on the show.

The creators of The Office also recently revealed they were a bit confused when Eilish requested to sample the show, but excited in general.
Now, she’s put her knowledge of the show to the test by sitting down with Rainn Wilson, who plays Dwight Schrute in the series, to answer some trivia questions.
Wilson surprised Eilish at her door to meet the 17-year-old artist, get a tour of her house and make her sweat with some tough questions only a true fan would know.
Eilish had to answer general questions about very specific facts in the show, as well as made her match up some quotes to which characters said them.
You can watch the entire hilarious video below.
Besides The Office cast, Eilish has made a lot of famous fans since the lbum dropped. She geeked out when Hayley Williams from Paramore and Avril Lavigne gushed about her album.
Also, Justin Bieber apparently followed her and Dave Grohl showed up to Ellen to watch her perform after previously comparing the hype around the artist to Nirvana in the ‘90s.
And, Sleeping With Siren‘s vocalist Kellin Quinn took to Instagram to share an adorable and heart-warming video of his daughter and niece dancing along to the singer’s “you should see me in a crown.”
The musician is set to play Glastonbury, and her slot got upgraded to a larger stage that can accommodate more people.
Eilish really has been having a huge year. She is celebrating taking the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart with her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?
Not to mention that, she is also the first musician born in the 2000s to do so. Also, the singer just received her first top 10 song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and with that, she’s broken the record for the most simultaneously charted Hot 100 titles among women. She has 14.
In addition, Eilish’s album has had the second-biggest opening week for 2019 so far.
Besides Eilish’s huge success on Billboard, she also is now the youngest female solo act in UK chart history to debut at No. 1 on the Official UK albums chart.
Her most recent music video for “bad guy” is also a sight to behold. You can check that out below.
