The incident occurred as Eilish walked through the crowd, greeting fans. The man who grabbed the singer was ejected from the concert, and no criminal charges were filed. This was reported by NBC News, writes UNN.

She approached the offender and said, "Oh, so you want to touch people? Now it's between us."
