Billie Eilish falls on her face during Coachella performance: 'It was dark'

• Billie Eilish tripped and fell over stage equipment during her second Coachella performance.
• The singer said she couldn't see where she was going after the stage lights were turned off.

Billie Eilish tripped and fell on her face during her Coachella performance last Saturday.

The "Happier Than Ever Singer" headlined the concert in Indio, California for its second weekend. However, during her set, she tripped over stage equipment after the lights had been turned off.

A video shared on social media shows Eilish's immediate reaction to the fall.

After laughing off the fall, Eilish could be heard saying: "I just ate shit."

She continued as she was being helped up: "Ouch! You guys, I just ate ass up here. I'm good… It was dark. Ouch! I tripped on the fucking fire thing."

After the incident, Eilish carried on with the show and performed her hit song "Getting Older." However, the pop star still joked about the fall after the song.

"You guys, I seriously ate shit," Eilish told the crowd. "Seriously. It was pitch black. You see that square? This fucking thing? I went de-de-de-de-de and fell onto my face."

The crowd responded with a chant of "fuck the square," and Eilish joined in.

Eilish made history by headlining Coachella this year

The Grammy Award-winning artist made history last week by becoming the youngest person to headline Coachella.

During her performances, she was joined by Blur frontman Damon Albarn, Paramore lead vocalist and songwriter Hayley Williams, and her brother Finneas, who also performed his own music at the event.

During Eilish's first Coachella headline performance on April 16, she apologized for not being Beyoncé who famously became the first Black woman to headline Coachella in 2018 and delivered a career-defining performance.

"I should not be headlining this shit!" she told the crowd, which included Insider's music team. "But I'm so fucking grateful that I'm here and that you guys are all here. This is such a dream come true. I feel crazy."
