    She also shared some behind-the-scenes details about learning music on her own. Billie Eilish revealed, "I learned mostly through YouTube tutorials. My songs were created in my brother's bedroom."

    Recalling her Grammy win for 'bad guy', she admitted she hoped she wouldn't win. "At that time, I was just a 17-year-old girl, and winning a Grammy for an album made at home with my brother seemed too much. Now, I'm finding my own joy," she confessed.
