In a slew of interviews, actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas spoke in length about singer Billie Eilish's new British Vogue cover, and body positivity. Gushing over the singer, Priyanka said, “She was unbelievable, so beautiful. Billie being herself, in her glory. That's what resonated with people I think, her being her best self and she looked amazing.”

Priyanka shed some light on body positivity, and how she adapts to her constantly changing body. Speaking in an interview, she said, “My body has changed as I've gotten older, just as everyone’s body does, and I've had to adapt mentally as well with like, OK, this is what it looks like now, this is what I look like now, it's alright, and catering to my now body and not my 10-or 20-years-ago body.”

For Priyanka, confident in one's own skin is the key. She said, “I just try to remind myself that I am loved and I feel good from the inside. I feel confident when I walk into a room and I try to remind myself that that has nothing to do with my body. Even though this culture gives credence to that, too much, maybe.”

On the work front, Priyanka has multiple projects in the pipeline, including Amazon series 'Citadel', romantic drama 'Text For You', and the highly anticipated 'The Matrix 4'.
