Finneas has spoken out against “powerful old white men” for criticizing his sister Billie Eilish over her anti-ICE speech at the 2026 Grammys. On Wednesday, February 4, the 28-year-old American singer-songwriter and musician posted on Threads, stating, “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,” he added.

At the Grammy Award ceremony held on Sunday, February 1, Billie Eilish delivered a speech about U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after accepting the Song of the Year prize for Wildflower. Joined by her brother Finneas, she thanked the Recording Academy before expressing her thoughts: “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 yeah 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 just keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. Our voices really do matter and people matter,” she quipped.

The songstress’s remarks, however, were bleeped out during the CBS broadcast of the event. It is noteworthy that Billie was not the only one to criticize ICE; Bad Bunny also spoke out against it.
