Billie Eilish Discusses Trends That Annoy Fans Who Throw Objects At Artists On Stage
JAKARTA - Billie Eilish expressed his opinion about fans throwing objects at artists on stage. He labeled the trend as "balture".
Recently, a number of artists were thrown with many objects as they appeared in recent weeks, including Bebe Rexha, whose head was hit by a fan's phone and needed stitches.
Meanwhile, Pink was stunned by a fan throwing his mother's ashes on stage at Hyde Park's BST, and Lil Nas X had to stop performing on weekends when a fan threw sex toys on stage.
Elsewhere, US country-pop artist Kelsea Ballerini was hit in the face by an object thrown at her from the crowd.
A similar incident occurred to Harry Styles, who was hit by a object on his face during his Vienna concert. Other artists affected include Ava Max, Taylor Swift, and Lil Uzi Vert.
Responding to this bad trend, Billie Eilish shared her opinion by emphasizing that something like that is nothing new.
The reason is, he has faced the same problem in his live show over the past six years.
I've been hit on stage with things for, literally, six years. I don't know why this is, like, new," he told The Hollywood Reporter in Barbie's premiere.

"People get excited and it can be dangerous," he said, trying to explain why he thought some fans threw things at artists.
"My feeling is mixed up about it, because when you're there, it's going to explode. But you know it's because of love and they're just trying to give you something."
The Ocean Eyes singer also continues to encourage her fans not to follow this trend, because it is "balture" to the musician.
"We understand, but don't do that," he added. "It really sucks when you're up there. You're in a vulnerable position."
