In her acceptance speech, Eilish stated that Megan Thee Stallion should have won the award.
“This is really embarrassing for me,” she said. “Megan, girl… I was gonna write a speech about how you deserve this but then I was like, ‘There’s no way they’re going to choose me,’ I was like, ‘It’s hers.’ You deserve this. You had a year that I think is un-toppable. You are a queen—I want to cry thinking about how much I love you… You deserve everything in the world, I think about you constantly… You deserve it.”
She then asked everyone to applaud Megan before continuing her acceptance speech.

Eilish’s theme song for the latest James Bond “No Time to Die” also won Best Song Written for Visual Media.
