PETA name Billie Eilish as their 2021 Person of the Year
Billie Eilish has been named PETA's 2021 Person of the Year, making her the youngest-ever winner of the annual award.
At just 19-years-old, Eilish has been named as PETA's 2021 Person of the Year after releasing a collection of vegan Nike Air Jordans and serving as an executive producer on vegan documentary They're Trying To Kill Us.
Eilish is the youngest recipient of the annual award, following previous winners including Joaquin Phoenix, Lewis Hamilton, Pamela Anderson, Sonam Kapoor, Tony Benn and more.
PETA wrote on Twitter, "Billie Eilish is NEVER afraid to speak out when it comes to injustice."

Earlier this week Eilish fifth annual Vanity Fair interview was unveiled, and when asked about her biggest achievements in her career, Eilish said getting designer Oscar de la Renta to stop using fur completely, while collaborating on her Met Gala dress, was "a really really big thing for me, and I hope that more brands follow along with being environmentally conscious and try to help the world instead of making it worse."
