Billie Eilish says Megan the stallion deserves a record of the year instead of her

After cleaning up at last year’s Grammy Awards, Billie Eilish would make a noticeably smaller splash at the 63rd annual ceremony on Sunday night. That is, until the final ceremony of the evening was announced.

In addition to picking up a single trophy for her James Bond theme ‘No Time To Die’ and a pretty moody performance at the start of the show, Eilish seemed happy to play second fiddle to the night’s other nominees, including Megan Thee Stallion, taken during the ceremony.

So when Beatles drummer Ringo Starr announced she’d won the Record of the Year Grammy for the second year in a row, Eilish and her brother Finneas took to the stage with a shock.

Eilish said she never expected to take the award home, seemingly stunned to beat competitors including Doja Cat (‘Say So’), Dua Lipa (‘Don’t Start Now’), Post Malone (‘Circles’). ), DaBaby and Roddy Ricch (“ROCKSTAR”), Black Pumas (“Colors”), Beyoncé (“Black Parade”), and Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” remix, which also includes Beyoncé.

In her acceptance speech, the 19-year-old singer clearly stated that the “Savage” rapper deserved the win much more.

“This is really embarrassing to me,” Eilish said at the top of her speech. Megan, girl … I wanted to write a speech about how you deserve this, but then I thought, ‘They’re not going to choose me’, I was like, ‘It’s hers’. You deserve this. You had a year which I think is unstoppable You’re a queen I wanna cry thinking about how much I love you You’re so beautiful You’re so talented You deserve everything in the world I’m constantly thinking about you I always stir for you. You deserve it, frankly. “

She then asked everyone in the limited audience to cheer on Megan before giving a few shoutouts to her team.

“I really appreciate this,” concluded Eilish. “Thanks for seeing me.”

At the 2020 ceremony, Eilish became the youngest artist to clean the ‘Big Four’ categories: Best New Artist, Song of the Year and Record of the Year for ‘Bad Guy’ and Album of the Year for ‘When We All Fall In sleep, where are we going? ”

At the time, she said she didn’t deserve the award either, saying to the audience after winning, “Can I just say I think Ariana Grande deserves this?”

Her move on Sunday night reminded many home viewers of the 2017 ceremony where Adele dedicated her Album of the Year win to Beyoncé, using most of her time onstage gushing over the music superstar.
