BILLIE Eilish was grabbed by a fan and yanked to the floor in a shock moment at a sold-out gig.
The Bad Guy singer, 23, was on night one of the North America leg of her Hit Me Hard and Soft tour when the overzealous supporter nearly derailed the Miami gig.
Dressed in her trademark streetwear, Billie was walking close to the fan barrier, dishing out high-fives, when one person leaned over and firmly pulled at her, prompting her to fall.
Handling the shock moment like a pro, Billie quickly bounced back up and continued on her way while security rushed to push the person back.
Other fans were furious about the breach, with one writing on X, “This fan should be prosecuted. Why are you doing this?”
Another said, “Kids raised entirely on screens don’t quite understand the physics of an actual human in front of them.”
A third wrote, “What the hell is wrong with people?”
Billie previously gave a fan the benefit of the doubt when they climbed on stage and put their arms around her neck during a Texas show in 2019.
Reflecting on the incident afterwards, Billie told Vanity Fair, “They’re only trying to be loving, and sometimes it just comes off wrong.”
Then there’s the danger of being hit by missiles while on stage, another unwanted hazard of the job.
Billie told the Hollywood Reporter that she’s been pelted with objects for six years, something she appears to find more annoying than being pawed at.
She said, “It’s absolutely infuriating when you’re up there.
“I have mixed feelings about it, because when you’re up there, it blows. But you know it’s out of love, and they’re just trying to give you something. You’re in a vulnerable position.”
And sometimes it’s not even people causing problems at concerts.
In Madison Square Garden last year, Billie was left with bruised legs after tumbling down stairs while waving to the crowd.
Fans of Billie’s who attended her UK shows earlier this year were left stunned to find the venues had been turned into meat-free zones for her shows.
Every food vendor inside London‘s O2 Arena, where she played six nights, were required to sell plant-based options, removing all animal products from the arena for the evening.
The menu included a peri-peri haloumi wrap, a corn naan, chipotle tacos, pizzas, and pancakes.
