Billie Eilish is undoubtedly one of the rising stars of the music industry and because of her determination, her music career is reaching greater heights. The musician stunned the world by becoming the first female artist to win in all four major categories, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

But how does she feel after getting her hands on the trophies? Her brother, Finneas, has an answer to that particular question.

Speaking in an interview with Vogue, the acclaimed songwriter revealed that Eilish felt quite “embarrassed” after winning so many trophies at the Grammys. However, he further stated the she was very grateful for the wins.

“She [Eilish] was very grateful, obviously, and a lot of her friends were there. She has more 'go with the flow' than I do, but we were both kind of embarrassed to win so much; you hope that it will be kind of equal but after the third in a row. Well, we love all of our fellow nominees,” Finneas said.

Eilish started the new year with a bang by becoming the youngest musician to win the trophies for Album of the Year and Song of the Year at the Grammys. She is also the first female artist ever to win in all four major categories, including Best New Artist and Record of the Year during the same year. The last time it happened was in 1981.

The “Bad Guy” hitmaker also performed at this year’s Academy Awards and recently released the theme song for the upcoming James Bond movie “No Time To Die.” She is the youngest artist to record a track for the James Bond film.

Later in the discussion, Finneas revealed that the Grammy wins did not change his “sibling” dynamic with Eilish and feels that there is no “other person he likes working with as much as his sister.”

In related news, Eilish recently took to Instagram to speak out against a man who uploaded a clip on the video-sharing platform of how he turned one of his friends into the “Everything I Wanted” singer and fooled people.

“Please stop doing this s--t. It is not safe for you and it is mean to people who don't know any better. You make me look bad,” Eilish wrote.

The creator of the video apologized to the Grammy award-winning artist and removed the video from the internet.
