Diva/Mensch pair for Oct 8, 2025

Billie Eilish was the star of the 2019 Grammys. She was only the second artist to win what are classifed as all four major general field awards in one year. The previous time was 1981 and that artist was Christopher Cross!

Those awards are:

Record of the Year

Album of the Year

Song of the Year

Best New Artist

Diva: winning all four

Mensch: Eilish herself

Feel free to disagree or correct me on this, but I've always gotten a strong mensch vibe from Billie Eilish. Her styling is resolutely unglamorous and she seems generally onto the whole Pop Star thing, not terribly impressed with it. Which might be the ultimate stealth diva move!

Here are Eilish and her brother Finneas performing that night. Listen to how quiet the crowd is.
