Pop singer Billie Eilish told the billionaire class to give their money away as she accepted an award at a ceremony attended by tech mogul Mark Zuckerberg and others.
Eilish took to the podium on Wednesday night to accept her award for the Wall Street Journal Magazine Innovator Awards and used the moment to rebuke those in the room wealthier than her.
“We’re in a time right now where the world is really, really bad and really dark and people need empathy and help more than, kind of, ever, especially in our country,” Eilish said while accepting the Music Innovator Award.
“I’d say if you have money, it would be great to use it for good things, maybe give it to some people that need it,” she added.
Eilish took it a step further to specifically single out billionaires, some of whom were in attendance at the ceremony.
“Love you all, but there’s a few people in here that have a lot more money than me,” she said. “If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? No hate, but yeah, give your money away, shorties.”
According to the New York Post, Eilish’s rebuke of billionaires received “laughter and applause from the audience,” with Mark Zuckerberg reportedly withholding his claps.
