Billie Eilish, FINNEAS Oscars: Brother-Sister Duo To Be The Youngest Double Oscar Winner?

As expected, Billie Eilish and FINNEAS earned an Oscar Award nomination for Best Original Song for "What Was I Made For?" for "Barbie."

The brother-sister producing duo has been sweeping the 2023 Awards circuit with their retrospective ballad.

Aged 26 and 22, respectively, FINNEAS and Billie Eilish might become the youngest double Oscar winners in history if they went on to win the award as highly predicted.

Billie Eilish, FINNEAS Oscars Nomination For 'What Was I Made For?'

On Instagram, FINNEAS shared his and his younger sister's delight as they earned their second Oscar nomination.

"We are so incredibly honored to receive a nomination for "What Was I Made For?* As lifelong fans of film, music in film, and the Academy Awards, this means everything to us. We are so grateful to the Academy, its members, and to be recognized alongside so many songwriters that we respect and admire," the two wrote.

FINNEAS and Eilish also thanked Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach for their work on "Barbie," along with Warner Brothers and Lucky Chap Entertainment.

"Thank you to Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt for weaving our song into the fabric and heart of this film so well. And a special shout out to Margot Robbie for her incredible foresight as a producer and brilliant performance that resonated with us so profoundly when writing this song. We are truly honored. Thank you," the message read.

In 2022, Billie Eilish and FINNEAS won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "No Time To Die" for the film of the same name. The song already won at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards, Variety's Hitmakers, Denver Film Critics Society, Georgia Film Critics Association, Hawaii Film Critics Society, Latino Entertainment Journalists Association, Music City Film Critics Association, North Dakota Film Society, Palm Springs International Film Festival, Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and the Golden Globe Awards.

Should they win the Oscar for this year again, it would be a monumental feat for the duo.

FINNEAS, Billie EilishYoungest Double Oscar Winners?

So far, there are only three artists who have won two Oscars when they were 30 or younger.

Luise Rainer for "The Great Ziegfiled" (26) and "The Good Earth" (27), Jodie Foster for "The Accused" (28) and "The Silence of The Lambs" (29), and Hilary Swank for "Boys Don't Cry" (25) and "Million Dollar Baby" (30).

If Billie Eilish and FINNEAS would win, they would be the youngest double Oscar winners. Billie was 21 and FINNEAS was 25 when they won the Oscar for "No Time To Die" in 2022, and they would have been 22 and 26 respectively, if they would win with "What Was I Made For?"
