Billie Eilish requests people to invest themselves in good deeds

This Saturday, Billie Eilish will receive an activism award at Sir Lucian Grainge's 2023 Artist Showcase in Los Angeles.

Sabrina Carpenter, a singing sensation, also attended the celebration, which was presented by Merz Aesthetics' Experience+ and Coke Studio.

The Bad Guy hitmaker was dressed in all black as she accepted a REVERB Amplifier Award for advocacy.

During her award speech acceptance, Billie said: "A lot of you got some money in your (expletive) pockets, so maybe use it for good things and not stupid things, you know?"

The recipient of a Grammy has spoken out on a variety of social and political issues, including gun control.

She confessed in her speech: "I do as much as I can but I feel like I can always do more, but I feel really impressed and really excited that you guys are actually making this a priority and thinking about it and kind of doing your part. It's really important."

She added: "I feel like I spend a lot of my time being really anxious about the fact that I don't feel like a lot of people, and especially people in the business, I don't feel like they care very much, and it's really nice to see that this is happening and that you guys do, and I just wanna say, like, everyone in this room, we can all do our part."
