‘Everybody’s so sensitive,’ she old Vogue. ‘A grown man can’t be a fan of an artist? There are so many people that the internet should be more worried about.’

Fans were shocked to find out that the Bad Guys singer was receiving texts from the In My Feelings rapper last year, when she was only 17. 

‘Like, you’re really going to say that Drake is creepy because he’s a fan of mine, and then you’re going to go vote for Donald Trump? What the f**k is that s**t?’

She doubled down on her words and said: ‘The internet is such a stupid-a** mess right now.’

Their text antics were revealed last year when Billie told Vanity Fair that the Canadian crooner reached out.

‘Drake is like the nicest dude I’ve ever spoken to,’ she said. ‘I mean I’ve only like texted him, but he’s so nice. Like, he does not need to be nice. You know what I mean? He’s at a level of his life where he doesn’t need to be nice, but he is. You know?’ 

The same people upset about Billie and Drake were also blasting the Degrassi High star for communicating with Millie Bobby Brown when she was 14-years-old. 

‘I love him,’ she told Access Hollywood. ‘I met him in Australia, and he’s honestly so fantastic. We just texted each other the other day and he was like, “I miss you so much,” and I was like, “I miss you more.” He’s great.’
