Salten Gossip Breaking Celebrity News
Billie Eilish and Melissa McCarthy had a celebrity encounter that went hilariously wrong at the 2024 SAG Awards ceremony on Saturday.
After Melissa gushed about how big of a fan she was of Billie’s, the 22-year-old singer–songwriter scrawled her autograph all over the 53-year-old actress’ forehead.
The moment had viewers at home who caught the ceremony on Netflix laughing about the shocking moment, which inspired social media users to joke about Melissa’s performance as a Billie Eilish superfan.
She even revealed that she had worked with Billie’s mother as her improv coach when she was pregnant with the future hitmaker.
After a taxing 118-day strike, the Screen Actors Guild is honoring the best performers in film and television at its 30th annual ceremony, which is being held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

Melissa was clearly overjoyed to be sharing the stage with Billie, but after the songstress said that it was nice to meet her, the Bridesmaids actress corrected her, saying they had met multiple times, including years earlier — before she was even born.
‘We’ve actually met before, but it’s OK, it doesn’t matter,’ she said.
‘I mean, why would you remember that? You shouldn’t remember… We’ve meet twice, actually we’ve met thrice. You’ve met my daughters and one of my dogs,’ she joked.
‘Fun fact, since you’re asking, I also met you originally in utero because your mom was my first improv teacher,’ Melissa revealed. ‘And guess who she was pregnant with? It was you.’
‘Wow… that’s… a lot,’ Billie replied in perfect deadpan.
Melissa continued to fangirl by begging the singer to sign her dress.
‘No, I don’t want to ruin it,’ Billie replied, but the actress took it as a compliment.
‘Thank you for liking my choices,’ Melissa said. Instead, she asked Billie to sign her face, which got an enthusiastic response from her.

Melissa revealed that Billie’s mother had been her improv coach years before, which she was pregnant with the future hitmaker.
After Billie refused to sign Melissa dress as as not to ruin it, she agreed to sign Melissa’s forehead instead
‘Oh, OK. I thought you were going to be like, “I don’t want to ruin your pretty face,”‘ Melissa joked.
‘I don’t care,’ Billie mumbled as she leaned in to scrawl her autograph over Melissa forehead, while hilariously putting a hand over her mouth to stop her from talking.
Fans on social media thought the display was ‘so funny.’
‘Melissa is THE Billie stan,’ wrote one user.
Some people hilariously compared the display to when Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) got a mustache and goatee drawn on her face on Friends.
One viewer was convinced that Billie and Melissa needed to team up for a ‘buddy comedy.’
Winners for tonight’s show are determined by SAG-AFTRA members, who vote for their favorites across a number of categories.

Maestro’s Bradley Cooper and Oppenheimer’s Cillian Murphy are also among the contenders for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role.
Ryan Gosling, who played Ken in Barbie, is among the contenders for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role. He will compete against Sterling K. Brown, Willem Dafoe, Robert De Niro and Robert Downey Jr. for the honor.

The awards come just months after SAG-AFTRA struck a deal with film studios following a months-long strike in which pay in the streaming era and artificial intelligence were top issues of concern.
The strike began on July 25, 2023, and a tentative deal was struck on November 8. It formally ended on December 5, 2023, with 78 percent of union members voting yes.
Despite disagreements over the final deal, the outcome was a huge relief for union leaders and the entertainment industry following a grueling few months of strikes.
The boycott coincided with the WGA strike, which lasted from May 2 to September 27.
