When the music duo was initially approached to contribute to the Barbie soundtrack, the "Bad Guy" singer previously recalled that she "was in a dark episode and things didn't make sense in life. I just didn't understand what the point was and why you would keep going. [I was] questioning everything in the world," The Hollywood Reporter quoted. But after she watched some footage from the film that Gerwig had compiled, that's when her perspective changed. She said at the Palm Springs Film Awards in January, "Basically I was just watching Barbie say and feel things that I really, really, really resonated with and felt so close to. I felt so seen, and I did not expect that." Oscars 2024: Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell Wins Best Original Song for Barbie's 'What Was I Made For?' and Make Oscar History - Here's How!
