Billie Eilish is one of the most popular artists of Generation Z. Despite her age and late debut—her first full-length album, "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?", was released in 2019—she stands out. She would certainly be at least in Billboard's TOP 10 most important pop stars of the 21st century if it weren't for ageism taking away her title. However, nothing can take away Billie’s sold-out arenas and the dedication of her fans.

While concerts are great fun, provide unique experiences, and allow interactions between fans and the artist, they can also be dangerous. An example is the tragedy during Astroworld, a festival by Travis Scott, where nine people lost their lives and hundreds were injured. Problems can also arise from seemingly innocent behavior, like throwing gifts to idols on stage.

For a long time, artists have been asking fans to think rationally and not throw anything on stage during performances. Musicians are focused on their work and cannot see items flying toward them, which can easily lead to tragedy. Fans don't just throw harmless things like flags or flowers, but also phones and jewelry, which can be potentially dangerous. Bebe Rexha experienced this firsthand when she was hit in the face with a phone, resulting in a split eyebrow and the need for stitches.

Despite these warnings, people still haven't learned. A similar situation recently happened to Billie Eilish. A fan threw a bracelet that struck her right in the face. It was clear that it hurt her—she paused the song for a moment, but then continued, discarding the "gift" from the stage.
