“When the Party’s Over”: Eilish’s Song Fuels Harris Campaign
Billie Eilish recently contributed one of her biggest hit songs, “When the Party’s Over,” to a new campaign commercial for Vice President Kamala Harris. The ad tells the traumatic story of Hadley Duvall, an advocate for reproductive choice who fell pregnant at only 12 years old after being raped by her stepfather.
Though Duvall was thankfully able to obtain an abortion back when Roe v. Wade still protected that right, she cautions that with that landmark decision now overturned, young girls will no longer have access to such critical medical care — even in nightmarish cases of incest or sexual assault. Eilish’s signature chorus plays softly in the background as Harris expresses support for the ad’s message.
