Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell, the acclaimed sibling duo, are set to receive the prestigious Chairman’s Award at the upcoming Palm Springs International Film Festival (PSIFF). The recognition comes in honor of their outstanding original song, “What Was I Made For?” featured in the film ‘Barbie.’

Festival Details

The film awards ceremony is scheduled for January 4, with the festival extending through January 15. Festival Chairman Nachhattar Singh Chandi expressed enthusiasm about presenting the award to Eilish and O’Connell, acknowledging their unparalleled talent and the emotional resonance of their contribution to ‘Barbie.’

Musical Artistry and Collaborative Success

The awarded song, “What Was I Made For,” was co-written by the sibling duo, with Eilish delivering a captivating performance.
