New York, Dec 16, (V7N) - Billie Eilish, the 22-year-old singer known for hits like "What Was I Made For?" and "Birds of a Feather," was struck in the face by an object thrown from the crowd during her concert in Arizona on Friday. The incident occurred while she was performing her Oscar-winning song from the Barbie soundtrack.

Footage shared on TikTok shows the Grammy-winning artist pausing briefly after the object—believed to be a piece of jewelry—hit her, before resuming the performance and tossing it aside. The crowd reacted with boos aimed at the person who threw the item, and fans quickly took to social media to express their disapproval, with one commenter writing, “Why won’t ppl STOP THROWING THINGS?”

Eilish, who has previously spoken about being hit with objects during performances, acknowledged last year that such incidents are frequent and often happen because fans get overly excited. She noted that while it can be frustrating, she understands that the actions are usually motivated by admiration.

This incident follows a trend of similar occurrences at live concerts in recent months. In November, country singer Zach Bryan had to halt his performance after an object hit his guitarist, and both Bebe Rexha and Kelsea Ballerini were injured by thrown items during their own concerts. Harry Styles has also been a target of object-throwing at his shows in recent years.

Despite these incidents, Eilish continues her tour, with upcoming shows in California and Australia. Fans have been reminded that throwing objects at performers is not only dangerous but also disrupts the live experience for everyone involved.
