Almost two months after Coachella, Billie Eilish revealed she had a body double during her performance that fans weren’t aware of.
“At the start of Coachella, I had a lookalike, one of my dancers for the show,” Eilish said during a recent appearance on Apple Music 1. The Matt Wilkinson Show. “I dressed her in a show look that I had worn before. We got a black wig and we put buns in it and we gave her a mask and sunglasses and she wore my shoes and socks.
She continued, “I put her in the back of the stage and she stayed there while the lights came on and everyone thought it was me. And no one ever knew it wasn’t me, literally no one did. And while she’s up there, I put on a big black coat and a traffic vest and a balaclava and just goggles.
If you watch the videos of her set, an Eilish-like figure can be seen in the back of the stage during her intro sequence, which featured clips from “Oxytocin” and “Happier Than Ever.” However, the musician’s face is not visible. About two minutes later, the real Eilish appears when “Bury a Friend” starts playing.
Take a close look at her doubled body in this video.
