Over the weekend, Billie Eilish brought her Atlanta show to a halt after realizing a fan in the crowd appeared to be in medical distress.
Eilish paused her performance due to the concertgoers getting pushed around in the front row; the woman was having trouble breathing and needed an inhaler.
Luckily, Eilish had an inhaler easily on hand and instructed a crew member from her stage team to get it to the fan immediately. The pop singer calmed the crowd, instructing them to take a deep breath and step back, as the struggling fan was attended to.
“I wait for people to be okay before I keep going,” Eilish said during the pause, which many took as a direct dig at Travis Scott and his lack of awareness as the tragedy at the Astroworld Festival unfolded before him last year.
Eilish has been slated to replace Scott at this year’s Coachella.
