Finneas asks fans to stop using him as PFP for fights—Internet roasts him instead: “Who has a finneas pfp be fr”

After kindly urging fans to avoid using his face as their profile photo (PFP) during online beefs, Finneas O'Connell, the music producer genius and brother of Billie Eilish, has found himself at the center of a humorous internet controversy.

"I don't wanna see ANYONE with a photo of me or Billie as their PFP gettin' in fights with other artists’ fans in comment sections!!!"

Finneas said on Instagram after Billie Eilish's GRAMMY defeat. Despite his good intentions, his sincere appeal swiftly backfired as the internet replied with an abundance of clever hit tweets. A user responded to the announcement by asking,

"Who has a finneas pfp be fr?"

This caused the platform to break out in entertainment and gave us glimpses of how Finneas' message may have fallen flat with some.

Finneas’ request backfires as fans roast him with jokes and memes

Fans flooded social media with witty responses, poking fun at the whole situation. One user sarcastically quipped,

“wants billie's nachos but he's not even the salsa!!”

Another chimed in, simply stating,

“probably Ferb,” a callback to Finneas’ potential resemblance to the silent cartoon character from Phineas and Ferb.

While Finneas had asked for peace, his words seemed to add more fuel to the fire, as some users made light of his relationship with his sister, Billie

“He thinks he’s one of them..”

a tweet read, referencing how Finneas doesn’t quite hold the same public status as his more famous sibling.

“He thinks this is a group project… sir, you ain’t Billie 😭,” joked another.

Other fans took the situation more humorously but noted the irony.

“hes literally saying to not be hateful and here yall are 😭😭,” one fan tweeted, addressing the online roast while pointing out that Finneas’ message was actually about spreading positivity.

“The three Finneas stans fighting for their lives in the comments 😭😭😭”

summarized one user, who imagined the handful of Finneas die-hard fans who might be affected by this whole situation.

Meanwhile, another simply stated,

“who is he…”

Background: Finneas and his music career

Despite the fact that his online appeal was ridiculed, Finneas is more than simply "Billie's brother". He is a celebrated composer, music producer, and musician in his own right. He and his sister have worked closely together, creating a large portion of Billie Eilish's highly regarded music. The brother and sister team has won many Grammys together, including Album of the Year in 2020. Although Finneas has received his fair share of praise, Billie frequently serves as the spokesperson for their achievements.

In addition to his collaboration with Billie, Finneas has pursued solo endeavors. His debut album, Optimist, was released in 2021 and demonstrated his distinct sound and poignant lyrics. Finneas has established himself in the industry and earned his spot among the best producers while being in Billie's shadow. However, neither sibling won a Grammy at the most recent awards, which would have added to the heated internet debates over them.

However, despite his success as a producer and singer, Finneas' appeal for harmony served as a reminder for fans that even Grammy-winning musicians are subject to the scathing humor of the internet.
