Billie Eilish pauses concert to keep fans safe

Billie Eilish is continuing to keep fans safe on her Happier Than Ever tour.

The singer was performing at Madison Square Garden in New York City on Saturday (Feb. 19th) when she encouraged fans to take a breather.  Footage obtained by TMZ also showed the “Bad Guy” singer asking fans near the stage to step back and give each other room.

Eilish drew the ire of Kanye “Ye” West for allegedly throwing shade at Travis Scott during the Atlanta stop on her tour earlier this month.

When the singer paused the show to help a fan who had trouble breathing, she told fans, “I wait for people to be OK before I keep going.” The comment prompted Ye to threaten to pull out of Coachella if the 20-year-old star doesn’t apologize.
