He's like the super-talented shadow of Billie's success story and over the last couple of years has really come into his own as a celebrity that people know and love.
From appearing on Amelia Dimoldenberg's Chicken Shop Date to winning an Oscar for Best Original Song in 2024 alongside his sister for their track 'What Was I Made For' from the Barbie movie.
He's almost a household name but who is Billie's brother Finneas exactly? What songs is he known for and does he have a girlfriend? Here's everything you need to know about...
Finneas O'Connell is an American singer-songwriter, who goes by the name 'Finneas'.
He was born on 30 July, 1997, making him 26 years old.
On the side of his singing career, the star has also acted in various TV shows and movies, including independent film, Life Inside Out, Glee, Bad Teacher and Modern Family.
Finneas grew up in Los Angeles with his mum Maggie Baird, and his father Patrick O'Connell. He is also the older brother of 'Bad Guy' singer, Billie Eilish, whose real name is actually Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell.
He is an established music producer, who helped put together Billie's debut album and works with her on all of her songs.

Finneas is currently dating Claudia Sulweski. Claudia is a popular YouTuber who shares beauty and fashion tips with her 2.5 million subscribers. The brunette beauty also has an impressive 2 million followers on Instagram.

Unsurprisingly, Finneas' track 'Claudia' was written about his love and the happy couple celebrated their five-year anniversary in September, 2023 where Finneas posted on Instagram with the caption, “Happy anniversary to my absolute dream girl!!! Best 5 years of my life!!!”

Funnily enough, despite numerous sites claiming that Finneas is 5 feet and 5 inches tall, the man stands at 6 feet tall.
Speaking to PaperMag, the artist was asked whether he had ever googled himself, to which he replied "Yeah, it says I'm 5'5 but I'm 6'. That's BS."
Finneas also took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to clear up any confusion about his height, he tweeted, "Lol, internet says I’m 5’5, can y’all let me know I’m 6’?"
It's estimated that Finneas O'Connell is worth a whopping $30 million (£25.6 million).
His little sister Billie is currently valued at $53 million (£40 million).
These are impressive numbers especially when considering the siblings have now won 2 Oscars and are only 26 and 22 years old respectively.
Finneas has not only collaborated with his little sister, he co-wrote and co-produced her debut EP, Don't Smile at Me.
He also helped produce her first album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, and is the only other writer credited on the LP, which went straight to number 1 in the US and UK charts.
