An Australian man launched a crowdfunding campaign to fly to the US and move into Billie Eilish’s $3 million Los Angeles mansion following her “no one is illegal on stolen land” rant at the Grammy Awards.
Drew Pavlou, a 24-year-old political activist and influencer, called out Eilish’s alleged virtue signaling in her anti-ICE remarks after she won Song of the Year at the 68th annual award show.
“I am flying to the USA next Friday to attempt to move into Billie Eilish’s beachside Malibu mansion,” Pavlou wrote on X on Monday, sharing a link to the now-defunct GoFundMe. “No human being is illegal on stolen land. Support my travel and filming costs here.”
Pavlou shared that the crowdfunding platform deleted his original fundraiser after it raised $3,000 towards his journey.
“GOFUNDME DELETED MY BILLIE EILISH FUNDRAISER THIS IS DISGUSTING AND UNFAIR,” Pavlou exclaimed. “I will look at alternative fundraising platforms.”
The campaign was deleted because the company could not “verify your connection and plan to transfer the donations to the person you’re raising money for,” according to an email shared by Pavlou.
He switched his tactics and started a new fundraiser on the GiveSendGo website, asking for roughly $2840 so he could fly to California and buy the “Birds of a Feather” singer’s $6 million Malibu home.
The beachfront property Pavlou was asking for was owned by Eilish’s brother, Finneas O’Connell, but was sold for $5.6 million back in 2022, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The mansion was destroyed during the deadly Palisades Fire, a development Pavlou was unaware of when he created the fundraiser.
“This is so f–king unfair because the Malibu beachside mansion was particularly funny,” Pavlou wrote, conceding he would use the funds to fly out to Eilish’s ritzy digs in Glendale.
The “WILDFLOWER” singer used her acceptance speech Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday to deliver the politically pointed message.
“As grateful as I feel, I honestly don’t feel like I need to say anything, but that no one is illegal on stolen land,” Eilish said from the stage of the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
“’F–k ICE’ is what I wanna say,” she concluded.

Pavlou was among the thousands who called out Eilish for her divisive comments.
“This is an extremely radical viewpoint. She’s essentially arguing that the United States of America should be abolished – that it is an illegitimate nation due to the sins of colonization. Remarkable to see the entire audience at the Grammys stand up to applaud in furious agreement,” he wrote.
“The center left is disintegrating before our eyes – the entire entertainment industry is apparently in thrall to extremely hardline communist views that call for the abolition of the United States of America.”
Eilish’s Los Angeles property sits on the ancestral land of the Tungva tribe, with officials from the indigenous inhabitants asking celebrities to mention the tribes by land if they are going to be virtue signaling to
“Eilish has not contacted our tribe directly regarding her property, we do value the instance when public figures provide visibility to the true history of this country,” a Tongva spokesperson told the Daily Mail.
“It is our hope that in future discussions, the tribe can explicitly be referenced to ensure the public understands that the greater Los Angeles Basin remains Gabrieleno Tongva territory,” the spokesperson said.
Incidentally, Billie Eilish was granted a restraining order in 2023 after she found a shirtless lurker standing outside her home.
Raymond Black was ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from the “Bad Guy” singer and her house and to stop harassing her, a judge ruled.
