Finneas has spoken out after he and Billie Eilish walked away from the 2025 Grammys empty-handed.
The sibling duo, who were nominated for Song of the Year with their smash-hit “Birds of a Feather,” ended up losing the category to Kendrick Lamar, who won for his chart-topping “Not Like Us” diss track.
Eilish, 23, also lost out on six other categories, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year.
However, despite their loss, 27-year-old Finneas celebrated the “great” ceremony and congratulated the winners.
“Great Grammys!!!” he posted on his Instagram Story after the Sunday (February 2) event. “So honored to have been nominated amongst so many amazing songs/ albums.”
He continued: “I don’t wanna see ANYONE with a photo of me or billie as their PFP gettin’ in fights with other artists’ fans in comment sections!!!
“Be at peace! Congratulations to all!!”

The 67th Annual Grammy Awards, which took place at the Los Angeles Crypto.com Arena, saw several historic victories for artists including Beyoncé and Lamar.
Beyoncé took home three awards that night — Album of the Year, Best Country Album and Best Country Duo/Group Performance — for her country record Cowboy Carter. She had gone into the evening with 11 nominations, making her the most nominated artist of all time, with a total of 99 nominations throughout her career. She was previously tied with her husband, Jay-Z, at 88.

Lamar, meanwhile, won five of his seven nominations, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year for his popular single “Not Like Us.”
In his acceptance speech for the former award, the Pulitzer Prize-winning rapper dedicated his win to Los Angeles, mentioning the fire-affected neighborhoods of Altadena and Pacific Palisades.
The Beatles were among the early winners, winning for Best Rock Performance for their “final” song, “Now and Then”, which was completed with the help of AI. The award was accepted by John Lennon’s son, Sean Ono Lennon.
Chappell Roan went on to win Best New Artist, using her acceptance speech to deliver an impassioned call for record labels to provide healthcare to developing artists.
Eilish wasn’t the only artist to have been notably snubbed at the 2025 Grammys. Taylor Swift, Post Malone, rising British singer-songwriter RAYE and Eminem also walked away with zero wins.
