At the 2020 Grammys, she became the youngest female artist to win all four categories like Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Album of the Year in a single year.
Eilish released her second album, “Happier Than Ever,” in 2021 where she won her first Academy Award ever for “No Time to Die.”
