Billie Eilish took a moment during her Nashville concert Wednesday night to address the outcome of the 2024 presidential election, which saw Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris.

During the show Eilish spoke to her fans and explained how she was feeling when she woke up to the results.

“I kind of couldn’t really fathom doing the show on this day, but the longer the day went on, I kind of had this just feeling of like it’s such a privilege that I get to do this with you guys and that we have this in a time like right now,” said the Grammy-winning artist, who previously endorsed Harris. “I just love you so much, and I want you to know that you’re safe with me, and you’re protected here, and you are safe in this room.”

She explained that she was going to perform a song she wrote with her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas O’Connell that is about the “abuse that exists in this world upon women” and the experiences she and people she knows have gone through.

“To tell you the truth, I’ve never met one single woman who doesn’t have a story of abuse,” Eilish said. “I’ve dealt with some stuff myself, and I have been taken advantage of, and I’ve been, you know, my boundaries were crossed, to say it politely.”

The Oscar winner continued, “Now a person who is a convicted, uh, let’s say convicted predator. God, my heart is being fast. Someone who hates women so, so deeply is about to be the president. So this song is for all the women out there.”

Eilish then performed her Happier Than Ever track “Your Power,” which begins with the lyrics, “Try not to abuse your power / I know we didn’t choose to change / You might not wanna lose your power / But having it’s so strange / She said you were a hero, you played the part / But you ruined her in a year, don’t act like it was hard.”

“We are voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz because they are fighting to protect our reproductive freedom, our planet and our democracy,” Eilish said when she endorsed the vice president. “Vote like your life depends on it, because it does.”

O’Connell added, “We can’t let extremists control our lives, our freedoms and our future. The only way to stop them and the dangerous Project 2025 agenda is to vote and elect Kamala Harris.”

The “Birds of a Feather” artist had posted on her Instagram Story earlier in the day, writing, “It’s a war on women.”

At her own concert in Seattle on Wednesday, Sabrina Carpenter also seemingly addressed the election outcome.

“I hope we can be a moment of peace for you, a moment of safety,” she said onstage. “Sorry about our country and to the women in here, I love you so so so so so much, and I really hope for the rest of this night that you can enjoy yourselves, because you absolutely deserve it.”

Earlier this week, nonprofit Headcount, which partnered up with the “Please Please Please” singer during her Short n’ Sweet tour, announced she registered more voters than any other artist, coming in at 35,814 voters, with an additional 263,087 voters engaged outside of registering.
