Billie Eilish proved she was more than just a talented musician as she took the stage for Saturday Night Live’s Dec. 11 2021 episode. The star did double duty for the evening, serving as both host and musical guest.

She made quite the entrance wearings a flouncy white and red dress and joking that she “decided to dress like Mrs. Claus going to the club.”

The “Bad Guy” singer went on to playfully call out her parents for having a “favorite child. (Billie’s creative partner and longtime producer is brother Finneas.)

“It was my dream to be in a movie, and I remember when that dream died,” she remembered. “I was 9, and my mom wrote a film inspired by her life. This is true: She cast my brother, Finneas, as her son, she played the mom, and in the movie, she had no daughter. Yeah, I got the hint.”
