Siblings Billie Eilish<\/a> and Finneas O\u2019Connell nabbed the Grammy for song of the year, becoming the first three-time winners in the history of the category.<\/p>\n

The duo previously won in 2020 for \u201cBad Guy\u201d and 2024 for \u201cWhat Was I Made For?\u201d This marked the 10th total Grammy win for the musical duo. <\/p>\n

The pair won the award for \u201cWildflower,\u201d a hit from Eilish\u2018s 2024 album \u201cHit Me Hard and Soft\u201d<\/a> that was re-released as a single last year. The song is also up for record of the year. <\/p>\n

Eilish used her acceptance speech to speak out against the Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids<\/a> that have turned violent<\/a> across the country. <\/p>\n

\u201cNo one is illegal on stolen land,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now. I feel really hopeful in this room and like we just need to keep fighting, speaking up and protesting. Our voices really matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eilish was only 18 when she snatched her first song of the year win with \u201cBad Guy.\u201d She later won the category again in 2024 for \u201cWhat Was I Made For?\u201d<\/a> <\/p>\n

The track bested entries from Lady Gaga, Huntr\/x, Doechii, Bad Bunny, Kendrick Lamar and SZA, Bruno Mars and Ros\u00e9, and Sabrina Carpenter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Siblings Billie Eilish and Finneas O\u2019Connell nabbed the Grammy for song of the year, becoming the first three-time…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":159916,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[46112,77855,45223,37601,38690,48,52,51,47,50,49,63,77854,77853,7755,10390,315,77852,35952,13560,72],"class_list":["post-159915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-billie-eilish","tag-duo","tag-finneas","tag-grammy","tag-involvement","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-los-angeles-times","tag-love-triangle","tag-music-critic-mikael-wood","tag-one","tag-song","tag-time","tag-tome","tag-torture","tag-wildflower","tag-year"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159915","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159915"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159915\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
