Billie Eilish Wins Big at 2020 Grammy Awards

Billie Eilish won the four big awards — Best New Artist, Song, Record and Album of the Year — at the 2020 Grammy Awards.
Billie Eilish cleaned up at the 2020 Grammy Awards, winning five of the six awards she was nominated for, including the night’s four biggest prizes.


Eilish’s night began during the prebroadcast ceremony, where her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? picked up Best Pop Vocal Album. She later won Best New Artist, Album of the Year for When We All Fall Asleep, and Record and Song of the Year for “Bad Guy.” On top of all that, her brother/producer, Finneas, picked up two awards himself: Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical (which he shared with Rob Kinelski); and Producer of the Year, Non-Classical.


By the time Eilish and Finneas closed out the night with their Record of the Year trophy, they had no more words to give, stepping up to the mic and expressing their gratitude one last time then walking offstage.


Although the coronation of one of pop’s most unique rising stars made for a picturesque ending to the Grammys, the night couldn’t have begun in a stranger way. There was an uneasy atmosphere already surrounding the 2020 Grammys thanks to the unexpected dismissal of president and CEO Deborah Dugan just days prior, and the subsequent allegations of sexual harassment, voting irregularities, financial improprieties, and corruption she made in a lawsuit against the Recording Academy.

Lawyer and former Supreme Court spokesman Ted Te said that the rules of Congress don't provide for this situations like this, wherein a franchise can continue if a bill that has been filed for its renewal wasn't granted immediately. "I'm not too sure if there's a specific rule governing that or just merely tradition," he said.          In a separate interview, Jun Rodriguez, lecturer on Contemporary Issues in Media Law at Ateneo’s Masters in Journalism program, was certain that the network giant...
