Lefty pop star Billie Eilish is facing calls to fork over her ritzy Los Angeles digs to a Native American tribe or illegal immigrant after she declared “no one is illegal on stolen land,” at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony.
The “Wildflower” singer, 24, is being accused of virtue signaling for the anti-ICE remarks she made while accepting the award for Song of the Year on Sunday night.
“What about if we all showed up to her mansion and said we are going to live there now? It’s stolen land right? She doesn’t own it,” wrote one X user in response to Eilish’s comments.
“Meanwhile, she’s chilling in her … Hollywood Hills fortress with armed guards and a moat of privilege. If the land’s so stolen, sis, hand over the keys to the nearest tribe or migrant family,” wrote political commentator and YouTuber Brandon Tatum.
“The woman is a blithering idiot. Of course, if she really means it, then she’ll happily hand over her multi-million pound Malibu beachfront home to illegal migrants,” wrote British journalist Julia Hartley-Brewer on X. “Which she won’t, because it’s all just silly celeb posturing.”
“Any white person who does a public “stolen land” acknowledgement should immediately give his or her land to native Americans. Otherwise they don’t mean it,” charged Utah Sen. Mike Lee on his personal X account.
Eilish, who Forbes estimated has a net worth of $53 million in 2020, purchased a $2.3 million horse ranch in Glendale when she was just 17 years old. That home previously belonged to British singer Leona Lewis, according to Hello! Magazine.
Her brother and music partner Finneas O’Connell, who stood beside Eilish as she accepted her Grammy Sunday night, reportedly sold his beach house on the sands of Malibu for $5.66 million in 2022, the LA Times reported.
O’Connell had purchased a Spanish Colonial-style home in Los Feliz in 2019 before purchasing the house next door in 2022 to create a small compound.
“As grateful as I feel, I honestly don’t feel like I need to say anything, but that no one is illegal on stolen land,” Eilish said from the stage of the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
“F–k ICE, is what I wanna say,” the singer concluded.
