This Barbie is nominated for Best Original Song.
Is your Golden Globes ballot ready? Leading up to tonight’s ceremony, Billie Eilish was a favorite to win in her category: Best Original Song – Motion Picture, where she’s nominated along with her brother, Finneas O’Connell, for the dreamy and melancholy “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie.
The song became a smash on TikTok, cementing it in the hearts and minds of fans everywhere and giving it the distinction of being a critics’ favorite, too. But it’s not the only track from the beloved film to be nominated. In fact, Barbie nabbed three noms in the category, including Dua Lipa’s track, “Dance the Night” and Ryan Gosling’s power ballad, “I’m Just Ken.”
But while Eilish is no stranger to the Globes, she didn’t get to walk the red carpet at the event when she was nominated in 2022, since it wasn’t televised, so this year’s big show gives the star a chance to soak up the spotlight.
Arriving at this year’s ceremony, the singer stayed true to usual style M.O. wearing oversized separates that consisted of a boxy black blazer, which was layered over a blue striped button-down, and a long and loose khaki skirt.
The most Billie thing about her outfit, however, was the red ruffled socks she wore with her black Mary Jane heels, turning the typical fashion faux pas into a red carpet statement. During her time on the red carpet, Eilish revealed that she’d gotten the shoes at a thrift store.

Eilish is already a Golden Globe winner. Back in 2022, she earned a Best Original Song – Motion Picture trophy for “No Time to Die,” the title track from 2021’s James Bond Film, aptly titled No Time to Die.
Not only did the track earn her multiple awards (she got an Oscar, too), she made history as the youngest artist, ever, to perform a Bond theme. With that honor, she and Finneas joined fellow musicians Sheryl Crow, Adele, Madonna, Sam Smith, and Alicia Keys, among others, to lend their voices to the spy franchise.

“It feels crazy to be a part of this in every way. To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honor,” Eilish said when the song was released. “James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. I’m still in shock.”
Finneas added, “Writing the theme song for a Bond film is something we’ve been dreaming about doing our entire lives. There is no more iconic pairing of music and cinema than the likes of Goldfinger and Live and Let Die. We feel so so lucky to play a small role in such a legendary franchise, long live 007.”
