Billie Eilish wants more people to pass on the turkey during the holidays.

The night before Thanksgiving, the 19-year-old Grammy winner encouraged others to go without turkey in a post on her Instagram Story, where Eilish is seen cradling one of the birds.

"Turkeys are some of the most gentle creatures in the world," the singer captioned her post. "And 46 million of them are killed every Thanksgiving."

She added, "I know it's hard to change traditions but just keep it in mind :)."

Earlier this month, Eilish and other celebrities such as Joaquin Phoenix and Ricky Gervais signed a petition requesting President Joe Biden allow this year's pardoned turkey to stay at Farm Sanctuary.
