"Yeah, it's just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now. I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we need to just keep fighting and speaking up and protesting. Our voices really do matter; people do matter. F*** ICE."
"Oh, I'm so edgy. I said f*** ICE. Oh my god."
"And that's why she's up there and you're not HAAHAHHAHAHA,"
Emily Austin, a conservative sports journalist and MAGA influencer, recorded and posted a live reaction to Billie Eilish's Grammys acceptance speech on X, mocking Eilish's "F*** ICE" line. Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas O'Connell won Song of the Year for "Wildflower" and used the speech to condemn ICE, say "No one is illegal on stolen land," call for protest, and reference recent deaths linked to the immigration crackdown, including Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Austin's clip, viewed over 23 million times, shows her repeating the profanity in a snarky tone and making faces. The post drew widespread backlash, with commenters attacking Austin's appearance and applauding Eilish's Grammy moment; one reply gained more than 90,000 likes.
