Eilish is actually a huge fan of "The Office," and even sampled a snippet of dialogue from the show for her song "My Strange Addiction."

"I absolutely adore you guys," Krasinski said to Billie and Finneas. "I've been a big fan of you since forever. The fact that you used 'The Office' in a song blew my brain out, and I don't think I fully recovered — ever."

Chance the Rapper and Krasinski's "The Office" co-star Rainn Wilson also made appearances on the live stream.

Can I just say #SGNProm wasn’t just a “virtual prom” it was the ultimate display of love & kindness. Going live on YouTube...multiple celebrity guests, music videos, songs, all of it! It was risky, but it paid off with all the feels! 👏 Bravo @johnkrasinski 👏👏@somegoodnews
