In case you missed it, Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig were reunited again at this year’s Oscars.

Presenting the award for Best Production Design, the duo performed an “acting” skit for all the directors in the crowd. Then Maya and Kristen decided to sing a medley to introduce the nominees for Best Costume Design.

The skit featured an acapella rendition of a bunch of songs related to clothes including ‘Vogue’, ‘Lady In Red’ and ‘Thong Song’. The medley was obviously iconic, as is most things done by Maya and Kristen, but one audience member wasn’t impressed at all. Billie Eilish was actually caught on camera grimacing during the performance, much to the disappointment of everyone online.

People quickly called Billie a “brat” and a “child” for her “disrespectful” reaction to world treasures Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wig. Only there to perform this year’s in memoriam, Billie likely just didn’t know what songs were being sang or what was going on. Plus, the girl is only 17 so we shouldn’t be bashing too hard on her for not really vibing with what was going on around her.

While Billie’s reaction to Maya and Kristen was funny, her similarly unimpressed reaction to Eminem was equally as good. And as with any viral moment, Billie Eilish’s Oscars faces were ripe with meme potential. So you can expect to see Billie’s face a lot more whenever something is disgusting, uncomfortable or just plain confusing pops up on your timeline.
