At The 'Concert for Ukraine,' Billie Eilish and Finneas Convey an Emotional Message

On 29^th March, at 'Concert For Ukraine,' Billie
Eilish and Finneas gave a message of support. The two-hour benefit event, which
was announced earlier this month took place at Resorts World Arena in
Birmingham, to raise money for the Disasters Emergency Committee's (DEC)
Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal. Shortly before the Manic Street Preachers' performance,
Eilish appeared via video link with her brother Finneas.

Eilish said: “Hi everyone, we are so sorry we can’t be there tonight but we still wanted to offer all of our love and support to everyone performing and most importantly to express the support and solidarity with the millions of people who’ve been forced to flee their homes and leave everything behind.”

Finneas added: “The charities delivering humanitarian aid
are doing a vital job so we want to say thank you to them and thanks to you for
giving whatever you can.”

Jamala, the 2016 winner of the Eurovision Song Contest for
Ukraine, also performed at the concert. She gave an emotional performance of
her Eurovision-winning song '1944,' while carrying a Ukrainian flag the entire
time. She was forced to abandon her home in Ukraine two weeks ago.

Camila Cabello, Emeli Sandé, Gregory Porter, Nile Rodgers and Chic, Tom Odell, Anne Marie, Snow Patrol, and Becky Hill are among the artists due to play with Ed Sheeran who leads the line-up. ITV will donate all sponsorship and advertising revenue produced from the broadcast of the event to the DEC fund, which is expected to garner over £3 million.
