Billie Told Her Fans To Make Space In The Crowd

The BBC reports that Billie was concerned about the fans at the front of the stage and asked them, “Are you all okay? People were fainting and getting pulled out. It’s hot, I know.”

“Take a step back, give everybody some space,” she continued telling the crowd. “If someone looks a little woozy, just tell someone. Don’t try to save feelings.”

Despite the scary situation, Eilish was able to continue her performance after a few minutes.

Billie Avoided A Deadly Situation By Stopping Her Show

Unlike Travis Scott, whose November “Astroworld Festival” turned deadly, Eilish is always looking out for her fans.

Eilish previously stopped a show in Atlanta when she realized a fan was having difficulty breathing. She put out a call for an inhaler.

The Blast previously reported on Scott’s deadly festival and the subsequent backlash and criticism he’s received.

On November, 5, the rapper held his “Astroworld Festival” in his home town of Houston, TX. Sadly, things took a tragic turn as the sun set and darkness took over the night sky.

10 innocent lives were taken and hundreds of others fell victim to the chaos that ensued.

The 10 causalities were caused by “compression asphyxia.”

According to the official coroner’s report, all ten victims of the terrible tragedy died due to being suffocated by the pressure from the surging crowd. All of the victim’s official cause of death is listed as “compression asphyxia.” As you know, many of them were rushed to local hospitals after collapsing inside the concert.

Following the festival, Travis was hit with multiple lawsuits with some seeking BILLIONS in damages.

Last month, a new victim of the festival has filed an entirely new lawsuit against the “SICKOMODE” rap star.

Travis Scott Hit With New Lawsuit Related To A Woman's Miscarriage

A female concertgoer at the November melee suffered a miscarriage after the festival. She filed a wrongful death lawsuit.

In court documents obtained by Page Six, Shanazia Williamson of Montgomery County, Ohio, alleged in court documents that she was “trampled and crushed” during the concert earlier that month, resulting in “serious injuries.”

She filed the lawsuit in November 2021.

Williamson alleges she experienced “trouble breathing,” “chest pain,” “left leg pain” and “injuries to other parts of her body.”

The lawsuit was amended in December 2021 in which Williamson and her husband claim the “horrific injuries” sustained resulted in “the death of her a Jarawd’s unborn child.”

According to the law in Texas — where the lawsuit was filed since the festival took place in Houston — an “individual” includes an unborn child at every stage of gestation from fertilization until birth, which is why Williamson and Owens were able to sue for wrongful death even though their child had not yet been born.

The lawsuit also stated, “Defendants’ failure to plan, design, manage, operate, staff and supervise the event was a direct and proximate cause of Shanazia’s injuries and death of her and Jarawd’s unborn child.”

In the aftermath of her miscarriage, Williamson suffered “physical pain, suffering, mental anguish, emotional distress, discomfort, personal injury and ultimately the death of her and Jarawd’s unborn child.”

It also mentioned a list of future damages, including “loss of enjoyment of life.”

The couple is suing for more than $1 million.
