After seeing Billie Eilish perform in Singapore last weekend, a member of
the online marketplace Carousell advertised a bag of the singer's "air" for
hundreds of dollars.
A "rare" bag of Eilish's air is really being offered for sale by the
individual in question, who goes by the username rev1on, for a staggering
15,000 Singaporean dollars (10,000 US dollars).
The item is, in the seller's opinion, "quite unusual," adding, "I was at
the front and got her air in the plastic as she screamed her lungs out
throughout the performance! You may purchase this if you missed the show!
Very uncommon air!"
The vendor also tweeted a picture of the vocalist of "Bad Guy" performing
on stage along with photographs of the bag of air up for grabs.
The item was quickly withdrawn from Carousell, which may indicate that the
vendor opted to keep this "unique" gem, that they were successful in finding
a buyer, or that they recognized their efforts to sell what is practically
nothing were futile.
In any event, others have responded to the piece with mockery, with one
tweeting: "I don't even sure if my brain would be able to digest the
rubbish."
Eilish is now on her Happier Than Ever tour, during which she revealed that
because of her incredibly busy performance schedule, she has not seen the
sun in "three days."
The 'Bored' hitmaker will visit 47 locations throughout the tour, which
will last for six months and finish on September 30.
It's kind of a bizarre thing that a human does, touring, she noted in a
June interview with the Sunday Times. We are not designed to experience such
extreme highs and terrible lows. It seems to have blurred. It's insane yet
fantastic, like you're living five lives at once.
She continued, though, saying that she was doing her best to catch some
natural sunshine each day despite "loathing the summers."
