Billie Eilish was overheard talking about the number of “TikTokers” at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards, and her comments have fueled the debate about creators attending Hollywood events.
The “What Was I Made For?” singer attended the People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday (February 18). During the ceremony, Eilish was seated next to Australian pop star Kylie Minogue, and cameras caught some of the conversation between the two. In a video shared by celebrity magazine account Pop Crave, Eilish can be heard commenting on the guest list.

Covering her mouth with her hand, Eilish told Minogue, “There are TikTokers here or something.” The Bad Guy singer then gestured with her thumb to the chairs next to them and shook her head in the negative.
The video has since been viewed more than 2.7 million times on X, formerly Twitter. Now users are praising Eilish’s candid commentary on the phenomenon culture that has taken over the entertainment industry.
“Billie Eilish talking about the scourge of TikTokers is hilarious,” one X user responded to the video.

“He is very honest about it,” said another.
“Billie is right, TikTokers have no business at award ceremonies,” a third person wrote.
She’s so real for this

Tana Mongeau, James Charles, Bobbi Althoff, Noah Miller, Drew Afualo, Alix Earle and Brianna LaPaglia were among the many influencers and creators invited to the People’s Choice Awards at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California, USA. Meanwhile, Eilish won TV Performance of the Year for her role in the Amazon Prime Video series Swarm. She was also nominated for Pop Artist of the Year, but that award went to Taylor Swift.
Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell performed “Unwritten” on stage with Natasha Bedingfield, and there were many other memorable moments at the awards ceremony. The 2004 hit was featured in the duo’s 2023 romantic comedy Anyone But You. While presenting an award together, Powell admitted that he was “a little nervous” and Sweeney started singing “Unwritten” to calm him down.
When the actor said, “That’s not going to work,” Sweeney replied:
Okay, then it’s time to bring out the big guns.
Bedingfield then took the stage to applause and finished the rest of the song.
