Billie Eilish’s “When the Party’s Over” soundtracks a new Kamala Harris ad that targets the dangers of not having reproductive care under a Donald Trump presidency.
In the one-minute clip, reproductive freed activist Hadley Duvall tells a devastating story of how she became pregnant after her stepfather raped her when she was just 12 years old. While she was able to get to have options like abortion for her pregnancy, Duvall warned that due to Roe v. Wade having been revoked, young women can no longer get the care they need, even when the pregnancy is die to incest or rape.
Eilish’s recognizable chorus is heard as Harris approves the message.
Earlier in the day, Eilish and her brother Finneas voiced their support for Harris. “We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy,” the “Bad Guy” singer says in a clip posted to social media.
“We can’t let extremists control our lives, our freedoms and our future,” Finneas continues. “The only way to stop them and the dangerous Project 2025 agenda is to vote and elect Kamala Harris.”
The pair also shared a link where fans can check their registration status ahead of election day on Nov. 5. “Vote like your life depends on it,” Eilish adds in the clip. “Because it does.”

Ariana Grande is bringing some Wicked good makeup items to fans with her upcoming R.E.M. Beauty collection, which is inspired by the upcoming film adaptation of the Broadway musical in which Grande portrays Glinda the Good Witch.
“I pulled inspiration for the collection from the stage show, the movie, and the books,” Grande told Vogue in a new interview of the collection. “I am very much a nerd who likes to document things, like my fittings and hair and makeup tests.”
The nine-piece collection includes eyeshadow palettes, metallic matte lipstick, lip stains and even a pH adaptive lip oil that changes colors depending on the wearer. All the colors have names that are “all very specifically and Wicked-ly Ozian,” she explained to the publication.
Grande also opened up about transforming into the beloved blonde character for the film, where she stars opposite Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba the Wicked Witch. “We wanted to pay homage to the gorgeous Glindas who have come before me while also creating our own version,” she said, referencing Billie Burke in 1939’s The Wizard of Oz and Kristin Chenoweth in the first stage rendition of Wicked.
“My pop persona is such a characterized version on its own. Beauty really helped me deconstruct that person and find Glinda,” she added. “I just wanted to live in the DNA and mindset of the character. Now I love the color pink and it feels like part of me. I think it’s something I’ll be forever intertwined with in a very special way.”
The first part of the Jon M. Chu-directed adaptation of Wicked arrives in theaters on November 22, while the R.E.M. Beauty Wicked collection is set for release on October 1.
