The album spawned several popular tracks, including the US top-five singles "Lunch" and "Birds of a Feather," demonstrating her continued ability to dominate the charts.
Following the album's release, Eilish announced the worldwide 'Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour,' which began in September 2024. The tour schedule is extensive, covering North America, Europe, Australia (starting February 2025), and a return to the US for a fall 2025 run.

Billie Eilish's early twenties have been defined by her success in film music. At the 2024 Academy Awards ceremony, she and Finneas won the Oscar for Best Original Song for "What Was I Made For?" from the *Barbie* movie soundtrack.

The same song from *Barbie* also secured her a Golden Globe Award in 2024, adding to her previous Golden Globe for the Bond theme. Her total major awards—including multiple Grammy Awards, BRIT Awards, and Billboard Music Awards—exceed 150, an extraordinary tally for an artist her age.
