Billie Eilish Seen Mouthing 'Please Don't Be Me' Before Winning Her Fourth Grammy

Updated September 7, 2021

Congratulations to Billie Eilish!

At just 18 years old, she has made history, taking home five of the biggest Grammy Awards last night.

But a video has surfaced from moments before winning her fourth, where she can be seen mouthing the words "Please don't be me."

Last night at the Grammy Awards, 18-year-old Billie Eilish made history, taking home five of the most major awards!

She is the youngest solo performer to ever win album of the year. Up until last night, the record holder had been Taylor Swift, who won best album at age of 20 for "Fearless."

After winning Album of the year, Billie seemed to think that she was undeserving.

"Can I just say that I think Ariana deserves this?" she said.

Not only was she the youngest person to ever win Album Of The Year, she was also the first woman to win all her other awards in the same year!

Yep, that's right!

She historically won Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the year and Best New Artist all at the same show!

The only other woman to win all four awards is Adele, but she did so over the course of a few years.

Well, and Katherine McPhee if you count the Grammys she's inherited by marrying David Foster, which she sure is!

I have to laugh.

Anyway, it was a HUGE night for Billie's career, and she's only just gotten started!

DID WE MENTION SHE'S ONLY 18?! LIKE RECENTLY 18?!

Superkid much?

The only thing crazier than the records she set last night, was how humble she was about it.

She and her brother Finneas were so down-to-earth and sweet about their SWEEP.

While she thought Ariana Grande should have won Album Of The Year, she was extremely modest about her other trophies as well.

And after a recent viral video, we have every reason to believe she may have even been a little bit embarrassed to be winning by such a landslide!

Kinda like how Lizzo was chanting "Beyoncé" before winning her Best Pop Solo Performance Grammy.

THIS IS THE GRAMMYS OF NO ONE WANTING TO WIN!

In this video of Billie, you can see her mouthing the words "Please don't be me."

Not exactly something you'd expect a hopeful Grammy nominee to say!

After she wins, she can be seen shouting disappointingly "No".

Aw!!!

The fact that she was rooting for another one of her fellow nominees to win instead of her is the most selfless, adorable thing I've ever heard of.

Displaying humility like that, at 18 years old, is so endearing. Such an inspiring and mature attitude to have in this situation.

Wanting to share recognition with her peers is so admirable.

We stan a humble queen!

Of course, fans are adoring the way Billie wanted somebody else to win the award. Her behavior was humbling and wise beyond her years!

Other fans are realizing that this is just one more reason to respect Billie Eilish.

While she was totally deserving of her winnings, it was refreshing to see that she makes music for the sake of art and not for the sake of fame.

She may have thought that Ariana Grande was more deserving of the award than she was, but fans are standing by Billie as the rightful winner.

She was definitely one of the most influential artists of 2019.

Some fans anticipated that Billie would end up facing a ton of backlash for winning five Grammys when there were other artists that were plenty deserving.

But obviously, it's not her fault that she won.

She can't help how awesome she is, amirite?!

People who do not even consider themselves to be Billie Eilish fans are applauding and paying their respects to her for how she accepted her awards.

Her down-to-earth vibe is definitely earning her some brownie points!

Again, congratulations, Billie on making history at the Grammy Awards last night!

And congrats on being the coolest 18-year-old I've ever seen!

Let us know what you think of her saying "Please don't be me" before winning her fourth award of the night!
