Katy Perry Reflects on Passing Up Billie Eilish

Pop star Katy Perry recently shared a surprising story about a major missed opportunity in her early days running a record label. Years ago, before Billie Eilish became a global superstar, Perry was sent an email pitching the young singer and her breakthrough track.

At the time, the song was "Ocean Eyes". Perry admitted that when she first listened to the track and looked at a photo of the newcomer, she brushed it off completely, thinking to herself, "Meh, boring."

Looking back with hindsight, the pop icon openly admits how wrong she was about the track. She humorously called it a "big mistake, huge mistake" to pass up the chance to work with Eilish right before her career exploded into mainstream success.
