Singer-songwriter Billie Eilish, 24, described how her neurodevelopmental disorder affects her everyday life.
“I do have Tourette’s, and, you know, I have vocal tics,” Eilish told Amy Poehler, 54, on the May 5 episode of her podcast, Good Hang With Amy Poehler. “But, luckily for me, and for everyone else, they’re mostly just noises.”
Tourette’s syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary sounds or movements known as tics. Eilish, a 10-time Grammy winner who was diagnosed with Tourette’s at age 11, said she can usually keep her vocal tics quiet.
