"I had this feeling yesterday at the Grammys because we obviously didn't win anything — I went into the day suspecting we weren't going to win anything," Eilish said.
"And of course, the internet, no matter what happens, is going to be like, 'You were robbed,' and I'm just like, 'I wasn't, I have seven at home. It's OK, it's all good,'" she continued.
O'Connell also told Billboard that winning Grammys doesn't seem as important as it used to.
"We're very fortunate and very blessed, but I don't feel that winning a bunch more Grammys is what's keeping me inspired these days," he said.
Eilish agreed, explaining that she cares more about "making music that touches people."

"I was nominated and that's amazing, but getting up during a commercial break and people coming up to me being like, 'You changed my life, your music gets me through the day,' I'm like, 'That's it,'" she said.
