Eilish accepted the award at the ceremony and performed “What Was I Made For?” live, showcasing her incredible talent. Alongside Eilish, other notable performers, such as Jon Batiste and Becky G. “Oppenheimer,” won the Best Picture award. In contrast, Cillian Murphy and Emma Stone won Best Actor and Best Actress in a Leading Role, respectively. During her acceptance speech, Eilish thanked her brother Finneas, who was on stage with her and dedicated the award to those impacted by Barbie. She also gave a shout-out to director Greta Gerwig. Finneas added a joke before they left the stage. Finally, Eilish thanked her dance and choir teachers, who have significantly shaped her career.

“I had a nightmare about this last night,” “I just didn’t think this would happen; I wasn’t expecting this; I feel so incredibly lucky and honoured. I’m grateful for this song and this movie and the way it made me feel.”

“Thank you to our parents for ever and ever and ever.” Ms. T, you didn’t like me, but you were good at your job.”
