Billie Eilish Pauses US Show To Help Fan In Trouble

Staff Writer

“I wait for people to be okay before I keep going.”

More Billie Eilish Billie Eilish

Billie Eilish temporarily halted a concert in the US to help a fan who was experiencing breathing issues.

Video of the incident, which took place during the Atlanta leg of Eilish’s Happier Than Ever World Tour, began to surface online across the weekend.

In the clips, Eilish can be seen requesting an inhaler for a front-row fan experiencing respiratory distress, while urging other attendees to “give her some time” and also saying “don’t crowd [her]”.

Towards the end of the incident, Eilish seemingly throws shade at Travis Scott and his on-stage response (or lack of) amid the Astroworld Festival tragedy last November, stating: “I wait for people to be okay before I keep going.”

You can watch clips below.

Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever World Tour will make its way to Australia this September.
