AceShowbiz - Billie Eilish has made a history at the 2020 Grammy Awards. She became the youngest artist to win all four major awards at the annual award-giving event that was held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 26.
Following her Song of the Year win, Billie was called to the stage again to accept the trophy for Best New Artist and Album of the Year for "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?". Meanwhile, her mega hit "Bad Guy" earned her another major award as it was announced as the winner for Record of the Year.
Shocked, Billie didn't think her record-breaking album should win Album of the Year because in her opinion, Ariana Grande's "Thank U, Next" was more deserving. "Can I just that I think Ariana deserves this?" she said during her acceptance speech. Meanwhile, Finneas said, "We didn't make this album to win a Grammy. We didn't think it would win anything ever." He added, "We stand up here confused and grateful."
In addition to becoming the youngest artist to win all four major awards at the Grammys, she became the first female artist to win all four major categories in a single night. Meanwhile, "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" also nabbed Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical and Best Pop Vocal Album.
Other musicians who took home multiple awards at the 2020 Grammy Awards included Lizzo, Lil Nas X and Lady GaGa. Besides Pop Solo Performance, Lizzo notched Best Traditional R&B Performance for "Jerome" and Best Urban Contemporary Album for "Cuz I Love You". Lil Nas' "Old Town Road", on the other hand, earned him Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Music Video. As for GaGa, her contribution to "A Star Is Born" soundtrack got her awards for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media and Best Song Written for Visual Media.
