Los Angeles, Dec 15 (NationPress) Grammy-winning artist Billie Eilish was struck by a necklace thrown from the audience during a concert in Arizona.
A video circulating online captured Eilish grimacing and bracing herself as the flying object struck her in the face while she was performing the song "What Was I Made For?". Eilish continued to sing without acknowledging the incident to the crowd.
Her unspoken reaction was recorded in another video, where she appeared visibly upset but maintained her composure and continued her performance, according to reports from aceshowbiz.com.
This occurrence has reignited discussions regarding concert audience etiquette and the responsibilities of attendees. Eilish's handling of the situation has garnered praise for her professionalism and ability to manage the unexpected disruption without losing her poise.
The event underscores the necessity of fostering a safe and enjoyable environment at concerts for both artists and fans.
Other performers, such as Ava Max and Bebe Rexha, have faced similar situations. Ava Max had her eye "scratched" by a fan who leaped onto the stage, while Bebe Rexha fell after someone threw a cell phone at her.
In related news, Eilish previously shared that she began struggling with her body image at the age of 10.
Known for her preference for baggy clothing, she explained that these loose-fitting outfits made her feel more "comfortable" after becoming dissatisfied with her shape at a young age, especially when she found it difficult to fit into clothes from a favorite brand that only offered one size.
She mentioned to Complex magazine: "What's really interesting is that when I was a little girl, I loved big dresses. All I wore was fairy dresses and skirts. I never wore pants or shorts when I was a little kid. But when I got to be about 11, I got obsessed with this brand called Brandy Melville. And they only sold clothes in one size."
"I was chubbier and I was obsessed with these clothes, but I'd buy a shirt and it wouldn't fit me. That's when my body problems started. I was around the age of 10 or 11. I got b**bs at like nine, and I was just developing really early. I wasn't slim. Also, I was in ballet, and that's this whole world of body problems."
She stated that wearing baggy clothes was her style, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
