Billie Eilish was up for seven Grammys on Sunday night, but in what was a very rare occurrence for her, she went home empty-handed. In fact, Billie losing at the Grammys is so unusual that her brother and co-nominee, FINNEAS, found it necessary to take to his Instagram Story to urge fans not to freak out.
“Great grammys!!!” he wrote. “So honored to have been nominated amongst so many amazing songs/albums. I don’t wanna see ANYONE with a photo of me or billie as their [profile picture] gettin’ in fights with other artists’ fans in the comments sections!!!!”
“Be at peace!” he concluded. “Congratulations to all!!”
Billie was nominated for album of the year, record of the year and song of the year but lost to, respectively, Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar. But she and FINNEAS still made an impact, performing their nominated song “Birds of a Feather” against a backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains and Eaton Canyon in Altadena, California, near where they grew up — an area that’s been hard hit by the deadly LA wildfires. Billie also performed at the FireAid benefit concert on Jan. 30.
Overall, Billie has won nine Grammys.
