ACADEMY IT'S A BIG MESS BUT

THE ARTISTS THAT WE'RE
HIGHLIGHTING TONIGHT.
THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.
THE 60 SECOND GRAMMY AWARDS
REMAINS FOCUSED ON ARTISTS.
TO GET READY WE'VE HUNG OUT WITH
SOME OF THIS YEAR'S NOMINEES.
ALL OF THEM FEATURED IN OUR
GRAMMY SPECIAL AIRING TONIGHT AT
10:00, 9:00 CENTRAL.
ONE NOMINEE WHO IS AS
MULTIFACETED AS SHE IS
MULTI-TALENTED IS UP FOR SIX
GRAMMYS AND SHE'S STILL A
TEENAGER.
BILLIE EILISH, OF COURSE, I'M
TALKING ABOUT HER.
SHE'S 18.
♪
WHAT'S YOUR DAY?
BILLIE EILISH IS HARD TO
EXPLAIN.
IN A SINGLE DAY WE SAW A LOT OF
MOVING PARTS.
SOMEONE AS CHANGEABLE AS THE
COLOR OF HER HAIR.
♪
THERE'S BILLIE EILISH, THE FUN
ONE.
AND THEN THERE'S BILLIE EILISH
THE SERIOUS ONE.
I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE
HAPPY AGAIN, EVER.
SHE'S HAPPY AGAIN.
IT IS REALLY FUN TO BE RIDING IN
THE CAR WITH THE ARTIST, YOU
KNOW, IT GIVES THE NAME OF THE
ARTIST ON THE RADIO THING AND
THEN THEY ARE SINGING ALONG WITH
IT.
THAT WAS VERY COOL.
SHE'S SO IMPRESSIVE.
SO IMPRESSIVE.
YOU LOOK -- SHE'S REALLY VERY
PRETTY GIRL.
VERY PRETTY AND VERY TALENTED.
WEARING THE BLUE BLOCKERS SO
YOU CAN SEE.
SHE LIKES CHANGING HERSELF
UP.
HER STRUGGLES ARE NO SECRET.
REFERS TO HER FANS IN HER
LYRICS.
SHE MAKES IT A SOURCE OF SUPPORT
FOR THOSE WHO ARE STRUGGLING.
SOME VIEWERS MAY FIND THIS TOPIC
A LITTLE DIFFICULT.
♪
I LOVE YOU IS A SAD SONG.
IT IS.
BUT IT'S ABOUT HOW TERRIFYING
THE FEELING OF LOVE IS AND HOW
DEBILITATING IT IS.
NO SUBJECT IS THE TOO
PERSONAL.
AS SOMEONE WHO USED TO HIDE
SELF-INFLICTING CUTS ON HER
ARMS, BILLIE EILISH REACHES OUT
TO FANS WITH CUTS ON THEIRS.
I GRAB THEM BY THE SHOULDERS
AND I'M LIKE PLEASE TAKE CARE OF
YOURSELF AND BE GOOD TO YOUR
SELF AND BE NICE TO YOURSELF.
DON'T TAKE THAT EXTRA STEP AND
HURT YOURSELF FURTHER AND YOU
CAN'T TAKE IT BACK.
YEAH.
SHE ADMITS, SHE SAID VERY
CANDIDLY SHE WASN'T SURE HOW
LONG SHE WOULD BE ON THIS EARTH
BECAUSE SHE FELT SO SAD AT
TIMES.
SHE HAS A PARTICULAR SENSITIVITY
WHEN SHE CAN SEE OTHERS HURTING.
SHE'S A VERY SPECIAL GIRL.
VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE.
