On Halloween weekend, music stars were out in force, some dressed up in elaborate costumes.

One particular pair has gotten a lot of attention, and it may not be for good reasons.

Billie Eilish dressed up as a baby while her rumored boyfriend, Jesse Rutherford, dressed up as an elderly guy.

This might be an allusion to the age disparity that everyone is talking about.

The "Happier Than Ever" hitmaker is 20 years old, while The Neighbourhood's main vocalist is 31. However, it was discovered that Billie was 15 when they met, implying that Jesse was 26.

This made many people uncomfortable, especially when their connection was originally publicized.

Some individuals feel their costumes to be an exciting decision, which has resulted in a lot of trolling on social media.

On Twitter, someone joked that Billie and Jesse "didn't dress up for Halloween."

"So Jesse Rutherford and Billie Eilish basically dressed up as a pedophile and a child," another person snarled. "Excellent message, guys."

A third individual accused the purported pair of "making fun of grooming."

A fourth participant described their outfits as "scary," adding that this "service" did not go as planned.

Others say that Billie is already an adult capable of making her own decisions.

Some say she and Jesse seem unconcerned about what the public thinks of them.

Billie Eilish and her purported boyfriend Jesse Rutherford started dating rumors in mid-October when they were seen holding hands during Halloween Horror Nights.

They confirmed their romance a few days later by kissing in front of the cameras.

"They sat closely next to each other in the booth and certainly had eyes for each other since they didn't pay much attention to anything else," a source told Hollywood Life after they were photographed enjoying supper.

"They would look one other in the eyes when chatting, and they were joking and laughing all night; they were quite comfortable with each other."

It's unknown how long the couple has been dating as of this writing, however they both attended the same movie premiere in August.

The "Bad Guy" singer previously dated actor Matthew Tyler Vorce for over a year before splitting up in May.
