Billie Eilish appeared baffled during Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig’s parody song performance at the 92nd Academy Awards, held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, California, on Sunday night.
In an instantly memeable moment, the camera panned to Eilish as Rudolph and Wiig started singing the 1986 song “Lady in Red” as part of a running bit in which they parodied Hollywood-related songs. They were gearing up to present the award for best costume design (which went to “Little Women”).
You can watch the full video of this moment below (the camera cuts to Eilish about 47 seconds in):

At this point I'm stumping for a dedicated camera on Billie Eilish, just providing nonstop disbelieving reaction shots to the entire #Oscars ceremony. Every time the show cuts to her, she's got a different "OK, Boomer" expression going on, and I'm all for it. pic.twitter.com/sRYcJSDNrV

Perhaps she was confused by the song choices. Earlier in the night, the 18-year-old singer made waves online when she said her favorite movie growing up was the 2014 movie "The Babadook."
It's also possible that Eilish was simply unamused by Rudolph and Wiig's comedic bit. Either way, the internet wins.
