Billie Eilish and Finneas win first Oscar for "No Time To Die"
Billie Eilish and Finneas picked up their first Oscar last night (27 March) for "No Time To Die", which won Best Original Song.
Eilish and Finneas took home their first Oscar last night (27 March) after their James Bond theme "No Time To Die" beat Beyoncé's King Richard song "Be Alive" and other songs from Encanto, Four Good Days and Belfast in the Best Original Song category.
The sibling duo's first Academy Award win comes after their Bond theme - which was released over two years ago - also picked up Grammy and Golden Globe awards.
During their acceptance speech, Eilish gave a shout out to "No Time To Die" collaborator Johnny Marr for "taking our song and making it worthy of James Bond."
