“Why? Wow. … Oh, my God, so many other songs deserved this, I’m sorry. Hi. Thank you so much,” she said after her win for Song of the Year. “This is my first Grammys. I never thought this would ever happen in my whole life. I grew up watching them. And this is my brother, Finneas, and he’s my best friend.”

The Billie Eilish: The World’s A Little Blurry documentary star added: “I feel like I joke around a lot and I never take anything seriously at these kind of things, but I genuinely want to say I’m so grateful. I only wanna say that I’m grateful and I’m so honored to be here amongst all of you. I love you to my core. I grew up watching all of you.”

Ahead of the big night, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Eilish was in a “much better place” than when she started out. “There were times when she didn’t want to leave the house because she couldn’t go out without being recognized,” the insider said in January 2020, noting the singer battled depression.

The source added: “She’s come to realize what a gift [her fame] is. She would never complain about having such a massive, loving and dedicated fan base.”
