"Security, why aren’t you paying attention? Like, for real. One job, please."

Billie Eilish stopped her performance at The Governors Ball to call out security for not paying attention to an incident in the crowd.

Billie has been extremely busy lately. From the 2021 Met Gala to fronting the October cover of Elle magazine and some festival performances along the way, it's been non-stop for Ms Eilish.

On Friday (Sep 24), Billie performed at The Governors Ball music festival in New York City. During her set, the singer paused her rendition of 'everything i wanted' to blast the event's security team. "Security, why aren’t you paying attention? Like, for real," she said, pointing at the crowd. "One job, please."

It's not known what exactly was going down in the crowd, but a viral TikTok revealed that some of her fans calling for a medic. A source told Insider that they had seen three festival-goers vomiting. However, the issue was apparently nothing too serious or called for a medical emergency.

Despite the chaos, Billie called the performance one of her "all time favorites" in an Instagram post. Sharing a video of the energetic crowd jumping up and down, Billie wrote: "Last night was one of my all time favorites THANK YOU GOV BALL."
