Eilish ended her fiery speech by pleading for all to register and vote in the upcoming election.

\"The only way to be certain of our future is to make it ourselves,\" she added.

Following her emotionally charged speech, Eilish officially debuted her new single \"My Future,\" which she performed alongside her older brother, Finneas.

She was one of Wednesday night's three scheduled performers, with the other two being Jennifer Hudson and Prince Royce.
