Peekaboo.

Billie Eilish gave her Instagram followers a peek at her body art today, revealing the top of the huge dragon design on her hip for the first time after once claiming fans would “never” see her tattoos.

The “Happier Than Ever” singer, 21, posted a video of herself wearing a baby tee featuring one of the cherubs from Raphael’s Sistine Chapel painting, with the cropped shirt revealing her pierced belly button and dragon design.

In the Instagram clip, the newly single star paired her shirt with low-slung jeans and a rainbow belt as she lifted herself up from what appears to be a desk chair in a messy room, arching her back to show off the ink on her hip.

While she famously said in 2020 that her ink would stay a secret, the Grammy winner revealed part of the enormous artwork — which she referred to as a “big boy” in a 2021 Vanity Fair interview — during her sexy June 2021 Vogue shoot.

She also showed off a peek of the dragon’s tail under the high-slitted gown she wore to the 2021 Met Gala afterparty.

However, this is the first time Eilish has revealed the top of the huge design, which features an open-mouthed dragon starting just to the side of her belly button and wrapping all the way down her hip and upper thigh.

Along with her dragon, the “Bad Guy” singer also has several other tattoos, including some fanciful designs she debuted at the “No Time to Die” premiere.

After telling Vanity Fair that she “lied again” when she said she wouldn’t reveal her tats, the chart-topper said her left wrist and hand feature “some fairies that are from a book that I had growing up — a little fairy book called ‘Fairyopolis.'” 

“They’re like my little guardian angel fairies,” she continued.

The “Ocean Eyes” singer — who often wears voluminous styles — also shared that she has “three tattoos now,” including a design on her chest “that says ‘Eilish.'”

“Yes, I love myself,” she said, pointing to her chest in the video clip.

As for her “big boy,” perhaps we’ll be seeing more of it this summer.
