Billie Eilish's Brother Finneas Slams Critics Of Her 'F**k ICE' Grammys Speech

Billie Eilish’s brother and musical collaborator Finneas is sticking up for the Birds Of A Feather singer after her acceptance speech at this year’s Grammy Awards sparked the ire of conservative critics.

On Sunday night, the brother-and-sister duo were awarded Song Of The Year at the 2026 Grammys for their hit Wildflower.

While accepting the accolade, Billie was one of several musicians during this year’s awards show to speak out against the current political administration, and in particular the recent actions of ICE officers.

“I feel so honoured every time I get to be in this room,” Billie told the audience. “And as grateful as I feel, I honestly don’t feel like I need to say anything but that no one is illegal on stolen land.

“And it’s just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, and I just feel really hopeful in this room and I feel like we need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. Our voices really do matter and the people matter – and fuck ICE is all I want to say.”

In the days that followed, Billie’s comments were torn apart by all of the usual suspects, with one GB News reporter even going as far as travelling to the pop singer’s house in Los Angeles to – in his words “see if she practises what she preaches” and let him into her home (which, considering Billie’s well-documented history with alleged stalkers, feels particularly egregious).

Posting on Threads, Finneas jumped to his sister’s defence, writing: “Seeing a lot of very powerful old white men outraged about what my 24-year-old sister said during her acceptance speech.

“We can literally see your names in the Epstein files.”

In a separate post, responding to a USA Today opinion piece branding Billie’s views “idiotic”, he said: “You can’t say it doesn’t matter what musicians or celebrities say or think but then talk about it for days. You’re out here making it matter. I’ll keep speaking up especially if it keeps bothering you.”

Billie’s latest win means she is now a 10-time Grammy recipient, while Finneas has 11, having also won two solo awards for his work as a producer.

This year’s top winner was Kendrick Lamar, while Bad Bunny picked up the night’s top honour, Album Of The Year, also speaking out against ICE during one of his own acceptance speeches.
